How to Be a Royal Retainer for a King, Queen, Prince, or Princess | In the SCA

Being a Royal Retainer for a King, Queen, Prince, or Princess is a job that I enjoy doing at any SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism) event that I attend. If you are interested in what all this job entails, please follow along!

A royal retainer is a volunteer service position that you can sign up for doing 1 or 2 hour shifts at an event where there will be royalty. For the shift that is selected, you are that specific Royal's assistant. This means that you will be responsible for items like carrying their bag and/or their cup, writing down contact information if they receive a gift, and more. However, there are also perks to being a retainer too!

For anyone curious about what exactly the 'SCA' is -- The Society for Creative Anachronism is an international, non-profit educational organization that studies and recreates the medieval and Renaissance years of 600-1600AD.
