Groups in the Spotlight

he Age of Chivalry
This summer keep your eyes on our featured group: The Age of Chivalry. Rumor has it that there is a Renaissance Faire in the planning stages which should include jousting, feasting, and a lot of fun! We will have further information in later editions of the ACTA DIURNA!!

AW Citizen in the Spotlight

Eirikr Knudsson
Our featured member this edition is Eirikr Knudsson!
A huge thank you to him for his help with Springfest, and all his cheerleading. Eirikr is a new AW member, so it was fabulous to see him jump in with both feet! Bravo!

Featured Neighborhood

Asgard
Germania's featured place this month is the Norse gods' home of Asgard. Come to see "the home of the Aesir. Protected by an inpenetrable wall, the gods' home may only be reached by way of the rainbow bridge, which is guarded by Heimdall" as well as the great discussions there are to be had in Asgard!!
