"Shire of Castlemere"
is a chapter of the "Society for Creative Anachronism" located in the Great Kingdom of Trimaris. In the real world we are located in Jacksonville, Florida with members in Duvall, Nassau, St. Johns, and Clay Counties.

The Society for Creative Anachronism (or S.C.A.) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to recreating the ambiance of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance before 1600 AD, concentrating on the Western European High Middle Ages but branching out into many non-European cultures. Persons attending events must wear their best effort at pre-17th Century dress (garb).
