- Dreiburgen Summers are known to be HOT. Dreiburgen wasn’t a very large group, and there was some concern that if we didn’t have activities during Summer, people may not keep their interest up.

Alison, along with the Dreiburgen Cook’s and Brews’ Guild felt that they needed to come up with something. Since it was so hot that you could fry bacon on your helmet, they rejected the common wisdom that all SCA field events had to have a tournament.
