Most memorable SCA moment: Two years ago when I first joined SCA,  my team grew close as the weeks passed by. During the camping trip I remember how everyone worked together to plan where to go to keep everyone occupied and included. There was no one that was alone or excluded from any activities and we acted as if we had all known each other for years. That is memorable to me because it shows the SCA bond.

Something few people know about me: I'm a pretty open person so I don't keep much to myself, but few people know that I'm secretly a nerd that loves to read and play video games.

Background: I have one older brother, and older sister, and a younger brother. I graduated from the Chinquapin School in Highlands Texas and am enrolled in the University of Texas in San Antonio.

The scenery, however, made the trip for me. Climbing the mountains that towered above the campsites was simply breath taking. I felt as if the entire land was calling out to me and welcoming me to the world for the very first time. It was definitely my favorite part of the entire trip.
