Táin Bó
The Great Cattle Raid
Táin Bó Activities
Táin Bó was originally conceived from a desire to have a war-like event that was inclusive of many different types of interests and activities, where participants could help their shire "win" through service, martial activities, and Arts and Sciences. Though we are not yet at a place where we can include every SCA activity, some day we hope Táin Bó will grow to be able to encompass literally something for everyone.
Martial Activities

This year's Táin Bó will again have a expansive Archery set up, youth combat activities, heavy, rapier, cut & thrust, and many others. Please check back for more information.
