  • Location: Kingdom of Ansteorra

The SCA's Twenty-fifth Year Celebration (TFYC) was held in the Kingdom of Ansteorra. It was, essentially, a war, spaning over a week in March 1991. Though the weather was problematic, with high winds on most days, and heavy rain and hail on one day, the event was a huge success. Activities included melee fighting and tournaments, a masked ball, arts and sciences classes, archery, etc.

Also visible in this photomontage are Bruce Draconarius of Mistholme (herald at head of procession), John ap Gwyndaf of Holdingford (swordbearer), Diana de Savigny (banner bearer) Avery of Kempsford (Queen's Champion, Ivan's front/left shield-bearer), Eichling von Amrum (Fiona's front/right shield-bearer), Albra Katerine Marie Isabelle Bautiste (at end of procession).
