== History of Montengarde ==

: 1979/AS 13 - 14 First organizational meetings held. There are two independent groups, Montengarde and Mussenhitt, each unaware of the other at first. Though they are made up of very different people they share a common love for the ideas of the SCA. This will eventually lead to their unification down the road.

: 1980/AS 14 - 15 Montengarde Petitions for Shire status, granted such in July. Both groups continue to grow and attract new members. "Non Taurus Est!" adopted as the group's motto after a duel with the College of Heralds over the precise nature of the principal charge on the Shire's Arms, the head of a Minotaur.

The Order of the Horn & Bow

:'''Order of the Horn and Bow'''

When [[Avacal]] became a Kingdom many of the awards of [[Montengarde]] were updated to pass as a kingdom. To that end [[Peter von Setzingen]] and [[Brangwayn Hessen]] did split the former Order of the [[Horns of the Minotaur]] into two streams.

The Order of the Horn and Bow is to be bestowed upon those individuals whose actions in the field of Archery best exemplify the pursuit of honour and glory in the name of the Barony of Montengarde and whose actions and leadership we as the populace can take pride in.

The wording of the First Scroll as crafted by Baron Peter:

:"Peter, Wise Baron, and Brangwayn, Elegant Baroness, to the populace, lords, peers, and sergeants of our lands, Greetings. Be it known that we have recognized the noble qualities of our subject; we have seen their ability to shoot, to teach, and to lead among Montengarde’s Archers. Thus it is our wish to enter ________________________ to the rolls of the Order of the Horn and Bow. Given with our esteem, this ____ day of ______________, AS ____."

Their Excellencies [[Cedric and Elizabeth]] were the victors from a list of 68 combatants. Nicknamed "Wind Crown", Montengarde's volunteer spirit was strong and the Minotaur's children worked together joyfully and can be justly proud of their efforts.

:2010/AS 44 - 45 Montengarde thirtieth Anniversary is held at 12th night, guests are given a necklace with a pearl to symbolize the 30th year of the group. His Majesty [[Owain ap Einar]] and TH [[Steinn and Gemma]] attend and reward many in the Barony for their hard work and skills.

:2012/AS 46 - 47 At Samhain (September 3, AS 47) Master [[Kraig Landenthal]] and Lady [[Una Henriksdottir]] were invested by Their Highnesses [[Wernar and Sina]] as Montengarde's 9th Baronial couple.

One to recognise the deserving youth of our Barony: [[Light of the Labyrinth]] and one to recognise those who travel and spread the fame of Montengarde (in positive ways mind you): [[Emissary of the Minotaur's Chair]].

:2014/AS 48 - 49 At Samhain the Baron and Baroness did unveil the "Wheel of Court" where many members of the populace did barely manage to escape Banishment and there was much disappointment that "Dance Party" was only spun once.

:2015/AS 49 - 50 Avacal becomes a Kingdom and Master [[Kraig Landenthal]] and Lady [[Una Henriksdottir]] swear fealty to the 1st King & Queen of Avacal [[Albrecht von Rugen]] and [[Nasheeta Al-Rakkasa]] making Montengarde again the first Barony of Avacal.

:2016/AS 50 - 51 Baron and Baroness [[Kraig Landenthal]] and [[Una Henriksdottir]] announce they will be polling for candidates for the next Baron and Baroness of Montengarde. 5 pairs put forward their names to be considered, including people running as two Baronesses.

:2017/AS 51 - 52 [[Peter von Setzingen]] and [[Brangwayn Hessen]] are created the 10th Baronial couple of Montengarde at 12th Night. In their reign they update many of Montengarde's awards so they can be registered with the Society. Created the [[Order of the Sable Drum]] for excellence in the Bardic Arts, first given to [[Adis Ylva]] at Samhain.

:2018/AS 52 - 53 A prosperous year as the Baron & Baroness welcome a child and bequeath their barony unto [[Bjar the Blue]] and [[Bóthilðr Sigurðardóttir]] who are invested as 11th Baronial couple of Montengarde by their Majesties Fergus and Kora at 12th Night.

Torse & Torch

2019-06-24T17:31:10Z

AltheaTambourri:

'''Order of the Torse & Torch'''

When [[Avacal]] became a Kingdom many of the awards of [[Montengarde]] were updated to pass as a kingdom. To that end [[Peter von Setzingen]] and [[Brangwayn Hessen]] did recreate the Order of the Torse of [[Montengarde]] into the passable order of the Torse & Torch.

The Order of the Torse & Torch is to be bestowed upon those individuals whose personae are well lived and inspire others to learn more.

The wording of the First Scroll as crafted by Baron Peter:

:"[Recipient Name]_______________________________
:Effective this ___ day of ________________, in the Society Year ____, so that all may know the efforts you have made in expanding the knowledge of your persona :through research and practice, and having enriched our Barony, it is Our wish to recognize your passion by admitting you into the Order of the Torse and Torch.

The Order of the Horn & Sword

2019-01-15T03:31:56Z

AltheaTambourri: Created page with ":'''Order of the Horn and Sword''' When Avacal became a Kingdom many of the awards of Montengarde were updated to pass as a kingdom. To that end Peter von Setzing..."

:'''Order of the Horn and Sword'''

When [[Avacal]] became a Kingdom many of the awards of [[Montengarde]] were updated to pass as a kingdom. To that end [[Peter von Setzingen]] and [[Brangwayn Hessen]] did split the former Order of the [[Horns of the Minotaur]] into two streams.

The Order of the Horn and Sword is to be bestowed upon those individuals whose actions on the field best exemplify the pursuit of honour and glory in the name of the Barony of Montengarde and whose actions and leadership we as the populace can take pride in.

The wording of the First Scroll as crafted by Baron Peter:

:"A Warrior who fights with tenacity and skill will win the day. But a Warrior who fights with chivalry and honour, and teaches others to do the same, is a leader. These are the qualities that are looked for in members of the Order of the Horn and Sword. Thus we would invite ___________________ to join this order, and ask them to continue to strengthen our Barony.
:Done this ____ day of _____________, during the reign of Peter and Brangwayn, in the Year of the Society ____."

Order of the Rose Petal

2019-01-15T03:01:21Z

AltheaTambourri: /* Members of the Order */

[[Barony]] of [[Montengarde]]: Given in recognition of skill and accomplishment in the [[Arts and Sciences]].

The Rose Petal is the Arts and Science award for the Barony of [[Montengarde]]. Awarded by the Baron and Baroness to those whose creative work in Montengarde has brought renown to the Barony and furthered A&S among the populace. Members of the Populace and members of the Order nominate new people to join the order.

== History ==

As the sum of the individual petals make up the whole of the Rose so too do the achievements of those who practice the various Arts and Sciences in creating the weave of the tapestry that is our Barony.
In recognition of their skill and accomplishments, [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]] Baron and Baroness of Montengarde, created in the seventeenth year of the Minotaur the Baronial Order of the Rose Petal to recognize excellence in the Arts and Sciences.

During the Reign of [[Malabar and Hero]], 7th [[Baron]] and [[Baroness]] of [[Montengarde]], they began calling the order forward to see the range of gentles who have been inducted into this order. Also for new members to see how many have gained this honour.

Golden Link

2019-01-15T02:59:29Z

AltheaTambourri: /* Members of the Order */

:The Golden Link is the Service award for the Barony of [[Montengarde]]. The long form is the Order of the Golden Link of the Minotaur's Chain. It is bestowed on by the Baron and Baroness to those that have done service for the Barony. Its members are recommended from the Populace and from the members of the Order.

== History of the order ==

There are those whose tireless service and sacrifice allows us to enjoy the many events and functions that are to be found in the Barony of [[Montengarde]].
It is their example which best typifies the volunteer spirit that is the backbone of our Society, without which the tapestry would most certainly all unravel.
With this in mind, in the seventeenth year of the Minotaur, being the thirty first year of the Society, [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]] chose to create the Baronial Order of the Golden Link, reflecting the chain that is found on the neck of the Baronial Charge and the long tradition of service attached to the Minotaur's Chain.

During the Reign of [[Malabar and Hero]], 7th Baron and Baroness of Montengarde, the tradition of calling the order forward to see the range of gentles who have been inducted into this order. Also for new members to see how many have gained this honour, and to see who is missing from its rolls.

Order of the Rose Petal

2018-05-28T01:23:51Z

AltheaTambourri: /* Members of the Order */

[[Barony]] of [[Montengarde]]: Given in recognition of skill and accomplishment in the [[Arts and Sciences]].

The Rose Petal is the Arts and Science award for the Barony of [[Montengarde]]. Awarded by the Baron and Baroness to those whose creative work in Montengarde has brought renown to the Barony and furthered A&S among the populace. Members of the Populace and members of the Order nominate new people to join the order.

== History ==

As the sum of the individual petals make up the whole of the Rose so too do the achievements of those who practice the various Arts and Sciences in creating the weave of the tapestry that is our Barony.
In recognition of their skill and accomplishments, [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]] Baron and Baroness of Montengarde, created in the seventeenth year of the Minotaur the Baronial Order of the Rose Petal to recognize excellence in the Arts and Sciences.

During the Reign of [[Malabar and Hero]], 7th [[Baron]] and [[Baroness]] of [[Montengarde]], they began calling the order forward to see the range of gentles who have been inducted into this order. Also for new members to see how many have gained this honour.

Golden Link

2018-05-28T01:12:01Z

AltheaTambourri: /* Members of the Order */

:The Golden Link is the Service award for the Barony of [[Montengarde]]. The long form is the Order of the Golden Link of the Minotaur's Chain. It is bestowed on by the Baron and Baroness to those that have done service for the Barony. Its members are recommended from the Populace and from the members of the Order.

== History of the order ==

There are those whose tireless service and sacrifice allows us to enjoy the many events and functions that are to be found in the Barony of [[Montengarde]].
It is their example which best typifies the volunteer spirit that is the backbone of our Society, without which the tapestry would most certainly all unravel.
With this in mind, in the seventeenth year of the Minotaur, being the thirty first year of the Society, [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]] chose to create the Baronial Order of the Golden Link, reflecting the chain that is found on the neck of the Baronial Charge and the long tradition of service attached to the Minotaur's Chain.

During the Reign of [[Malabar and Hero]], 7th Baron and Baroness of Montengarde, the tradition of calling the order forward to see the range of gentles who have been inducted into this order. Also for new members to see how many have gained this honour, and to see who is missing from its rolls.

Golden Link

2017-12-05T22:04:26Z

AltheaTambourri: /* Members of the Order */

:The Golden Link is the Service award for the Barony of [[Montengarde]]. The long form is the Order of the Golden Link of the Minotaur's Chain. It is bestowed on by the Baron and Baroness to those that have done service for the Barony. Its members are recommended from the Populace and from the members of the Order.

== History of the order ==

There are those whose tireless service and sacrifice allows us to enjoy the many events and functions that are to be found in the Barony of [[Montengarde]].
It is their example which best typifies the volunteer spirit that is the backbone of our Society, without which the tapestry would most certainly all unravel.
With this in mind, in the seventeenth year of the Minotaur, being the thirty first year of the Society, [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]] chose to create the Baronial Order of the Golden Link, reflecting the chain that is found on the neck of the Baronial Charge and the long tradition of service attached to the Minotaur's Chain.

During the Reign of [[Malabar and Hero]], 7th Baron and Baroness of Montengarde, the tradition of calling the order forward to see the range of gentles who have been inducted into this order. Also for new members to see how many have gained this honour, and to see who is missing from its rolls.

Golden Link

2017-12-05T21:18:25Z

AltheaTambourri: /* Members of the Order */

:The Golden Link is the Service award for the Barony of [[Montengarde]]. The long form is the Order of the Golden Link of the Minotaur's Chain. It is bestowed on by the Baron and Baroness to those that have done service for the Barony. Its members are recommended from the Populace and from the members of the Order.

== History of the order ==

There are those whose tireless service and sacrifice allows us to enjoy the many events and functions that are to be found in the Barony of [[Montengarde]].
It is their example which best typifies the volunteer spirit that is the backbone of our Society, without which the tapestry would most certainly all unravel.
With this in mind, in the seventeenth year of the Minotaur, being the thirty first year of the Society, [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]] chose to create the Baronial Order of the Golden Link, reflecting the chain that is found on the neck of the Baronial Charge and the long tradition of service attached to the Minotaur's Chain.

During the Reign of [[Malabar and Hero]], 7th Baron and Baroness of Montengarde, the tradition of calling the order forward to see the range of gentles who have been inducted into this order. Also for new members to see how many have gained this honour, and to see who is missing from its rolls.

Order of the Rose Petal

2017-12-05T21:16:32Z

AltheaTambourri: /* Members of the Order */

[[Barony]] of [[Montengarde]]: Given in recognition of skill and accomplishment in the [[Arts and Sciences]].

The Rose Petal is the Arts and Science award for the Barony of [[Montengarde]]. Awarded by the Baron and Baroness to those whose creative work in Montengarde has brought renown to the Barony and furthered A&S among the populace. Members of the Populace and members of the Order nominate new people to join the order.

== History ==

As the sum of the individual petals make up the whole of the Rose so too do the achievements of those who practice the various Arts and Sciences in creating the weave of the tapestry that is our Barony.
In recognition of their skill and accomplishments, [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]] Baron and Baroness of Montengarde, created in the seventeenth year of the Minotaur the Baronial Order of the Rose Petal to recognize excellence in the Arts and Sciences.

Child of the Minotaur

2017-10-31T17:31:11Z

AltheaTambourri: /* Members */

'''Order of the Children of Saint Ferdinand'''

Formerly known as the (Order of the Child of the Minotaur)

Given to people who are leaving the Barony to move to another land. This award is at the Baron and Baronesses of [[Montengarde]] whim. The award normally comes in the form of a charter or a belt in Black and gold. In Anno Societatis 51, to pass the award at the society level, the awards' name was changed from the "Order of the Child of the Minotaur" to the "Order of the Children of Saint Ferdinand." Ferdinand is the name of the Minotaur on Montengardes' Heraldry.

==Wording==
Current script:

Children of Saint Ferdinand

Peter, Freiherr & Brangwayn, Freifrau

Send greetings to all to whom these present letters shall meet: Know you that our subject has been called from our court, but not from our hearts. Allow this letter to act in our stead to extoll the deeds of ________________________, that all may know them as a member of the Order of the Children of Saint Ferdinand. Made known by our seal, this ___ day of ___________, AS ____.

Wording from the era of Beothuk and Wilma:

:If the Minotaur had been given the chance he would have run amuk, striking fear into the hearts of all. Oceans and borders would not have contained him and the world would have trembled at his feet. We, __________ and ______________ Baron and Baroness of :Montengarde know that this spirit of adventure runs strong in their people, sometimes calling them far from our sight.
:_____________________ has felt the call of the fates, and while we set them loose upon the world we would bid them remember home and brand them as ours, a Child of the Minotaur.

Golden Link

2017-10-09T04:23:57Z

AltheaTambourri: /* Members of the Order */

:The Golden Link is the Service award for the Barony of [[Montengarde]]. The long form is the Order of the Golden Link of the Minotaur's Chain. It is bestowed on by the Baron and Baroness to those that have done service for the Barony. Its members are recommended from the Populace and from the members of the Order.

== History of the order ==

There are those whose tireless service and sacrifice allows us to enjoy the many events and functions that are to be found in the Barony of [[Montengarde]].
It is their example which best typifies the volunteer spirit that is the backbone of our Society, without which the tapestry would most certainly all unravel.
With this in mind, in the seventeenth year of the Minotaur, being the thirty first year of the Society, [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]] chose to create the Baronial Order of the Golden Link, reflecting the chain that is found on the neck of the Baronial Charge and the long tradition of service attached to the Minotaur's Chain.

During the Reign of [[Malabar and Hero]], 7th Baron and Baroness of Montengarde, the tradition of calling the order forward to see the range of gentles who have been inducted into this order. Also for new members to see how many have gained this honour, and to see who is missing from its rolls.

== History of Montengarde ==

: 1979/AS 13 - 14 First organizational meetings held. There are two independent groups, Montengarde and Mussenhitt, each unaware of the other at first. Though they are made up of very different people they share a common love for the ideas of the SCA. This will eventually lead to their unification down the road.

"Non Taurus Est!" adopted as the group's motto after a duel with the College of Heralds over the precise nature of the principal charge on the Shire's Arms, the head of a Minotaur.

Montengarde hosts the First Crown Tourney to be held in the region on the September long weekend. [[Garrathe Ravenswood]] and [[Darcy of Eagles Crag]] are the event stewards, Sir [[Torgul and Erin]] are the victors.

: 1985/AS 19 - 20 The group has grown, there is a lot of pride and a strong sense of identity. [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]] begin circulating a petition amongst the populace in order to establish how much support there is for the idea. The support turns out to be overwhelming.

Their Excellencies [[Cedric and Elizabeth]] were the victors from a list of 68 combatants.

:2014/AS 48 - 49 At Samhain the Baron and Baroness did unveil the "Wheel of Court" where many members of the populace did barely manage to escape Banishment and there was much disappointment that "Dance Party" was only spun once.

Child of the Minotaur

2017-04-24T16:21:46Z

AltheaTambourri:

'''Order of the Children of Saint Ferdinand'''

Formerly known as the (Order of the Child of the Minotaur)

Given to people who are leaving the Barony to move to another land. This award is at the Baron and Baronesses of [[Montengarde]] whim. The award normally comes in the form of a charter or a belt in Black and gold. In Anno Societatis 51, to pass the award at the society level, the awards' name was changed from the "Order of the Child of the Minotaur" to the "Order of the Children of Saint Ferdinand." Ferdinand is the name of the Minotaur on Montengardes' Heraldry.

==Wording==
Current script:

Children of Saint Ferdinand

Peter, Freiherr & Brangwayn, Freifrau

Send greetings to all to whom these present letters shall meet: Know you that our subject has been called from our court, but not from our hearts. Allow this letter to act in our stead to extoll the deeds of ________________________, that all may know them as a member of the Order of the Children of Saint Ferdinand. Made known by our seal, this ___ day of ___________, AS ____.

Wording from the era of Beothuk and Wilma:

:If the Minotaur had been given the chance he would have run amuk, striking fear into the hearts of all. Oceans and borders would not have contained him and the world would have trembled at his feet. We, __________ and ______________ Baron and Baroness of :Montengarde know that this spirit of adventure runs strong in their people, sometimes calling them far from our sight.
:_____________________ has felt the call of the fates, and while we set them loose upon the world we would bid them remember home and brand them as ours, a Child of the Minotaur.

Golden Link

2017-02-15T17:18:44Z

AltheaTambourri: /* Members of the Order */

:The Golden Link is the Service award for the Barony of [[Montengarde]]. The long form is the Order of the Golden Link of the Minotaur's Chain. It is bestowed on by the Baron and Baroness to those that have done service for the Barony. Its members are recommended from the Populace and from the members of the Order.

== History of the order ==

There are those whose tireless service and sacrifice allows us to enjoy the many events and functions that are to be found in the Barony of [[Montengarde]].
It is their example which best typifies the volunteer spirit that is the backbone of our Society, without which the tapestry would most certainly all unravel.
With this in mind, in the seventeenth year of the Minotaur, being the thirty first year of the Society, [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]] chose to create the Baronial Order of the Golden Link, reflecting the chain that is found on the neck of the Baronial Charge and the long tradition of service attached to the Minotaur's Chain.

During the Reign of [[Malabar and Hero]], 7th Baron and Baroness of Montengarde, the tradition of calling the order forward to see the range of gentles who have been inducted into this order. Also for new members to see how many have gained this honour, and to see who is missing from its rolls.

Heart of the Minotaur

2017-02-10T23:13:21Z

AltheaTambourri:

Montengarde Baronial award for courtesy and gallantry. This award was known as the "Heart of the Minotaur" until [[Avacal]] became it's own Kingdom and it was determined we should pass Montengarde's awards heraldically. Hence in anno societatis 51 (being 2017 by the common tongue) this award became known as the Order of [[Saint Ferdinand's Heart]].

== History ==

There are those whose Chivalry issues from the heart like water from a well-spring and whose deeds of courtesy are given without thought of recognition or reward.
In the thirty first year of our Society and in the seventeenth year of the Minotaur, [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]], Baron and Baroness of [[Montengarde]], created the Order of the Heart of the Minotaur in recognition of those individuals whose chivalry and gallantry shine as beacons to us all.
The honour to be bestowed upon those worthy of merit based upon the recommendations of the populace of Montengarde.

== Members ==

Golden Link

2017-02-10T23:03:17Z

AltheaTambourri: /* Members of the Order */

:The Golden Link is the Service award for the Barony of [[Montengarde]]. The long form is the Order of the Golden Link of the Minotaur's Chain. It is bestowed on by the Baron and Baroness to those that have done service for the Barony. Its members are recommended from the Populace and from the members of the Order.

== History of the order ==

There are those whose tireless service and sacrifice allows us to enjoy the many events and functions that are to be found in the Barony of [[Montengarde]].
It is their example which best typifies the volunteer spirit that is the backbone of our Society, without which the tapestry would most certainly all unravel.
With this in mind, in the seventeenth year of the Minotaur, being the thirty first year of the Society, [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]] chose to create the Baronial Order of the Golden Link, reflecting the chain that is found on the neck of the Baronial Charge and the long tradition of service attached to the Minotaur's Chain.

During the Reign of [[Malabar and Hero]], 7th Baron and Baroness of Montengarde, the tradition of calling the order forward to see the range of gentles who have been inducted into this order. Also for new members to see how many have gained this honour, and to see who is missing from its rolls.

== History of Montengarde ==

: 1979/AS 13 - 14 First organizational meetings held. There are two independent groups, Montengarde and Mussenhitt, each unaware of the other at first.

:2014/AS 48 - 49 At Samhain the Baron and Baroness did unveil the "Wheel of Court" where many members of the populace did barely manage to escape Banishment and there was much disappointment that "Dance Party" was only spun once.

Golden Link

2016-11-22T04:09:35Z

AltheaTambourri: /* Members of the Order */

:The Golden Link is the Service award for the Barony of [[Montengarde]]. The long form is the Order of the Golden Link of the Minotaur's Chain. It is bestowed on by the Baron and Baroness to those that have done service for the Barony. Its members are recommended from the Populace and from the members of the Order.

== History of the order ==

There are those whose tireless service and sacrifice allows us to enjoy the many events and functions that are to be found in the Barony of [[Montengarde]].
It is their example which best typifies the volunteer spirit that is the backbone of our Society, without which the tapestry would most certainly all unravel.
With this in mind, in the seventeenth year of the Minotaur, being the thirty first year of the Society, [[Thorwulf and Sapphira]] chose to create the Baronial Order of the Golden Link, reflecting the chain that is found on the neck of the Baronial Charge and the long tradition of service attached to the Minotaur's Chain.

During the Reign of [[Malabar and Hero]], 7th Baron and Baroness of Montengarde, the tradition of calling the order forward to see the range of gentles who have been inducted into this order. Also for new members to see how many have gained this honour, and to see who is missing from its rolls.
