REGISTRATION
Camping Registration
After you have registered, you will receive a confirmation email when this is submitted. Please only register ONCE. (If you have Changes, Transfers or Cancellations, use the buttons at the bottom of the page. Please contact PRE-REG with any questions about completing the Pre-Registration.
Equestrian Registration
Caid is proud to present one of the most intensive and organized equestrian events in the Known World. We take great pride in offering a variety of activities for participants and encourage attendees to do as many or as few events as they and their horse are capable of.
Merchants Registration
Great Western War is one of the largest SCA events in Southern California, and we expect approximately 2,500 people to attend, many of whom make sizable purchases at this event. Theme of décor, sales items, and the dress of all persons associated with booths must be consistent with the acceptable historical time period of the SCA (approximately pre-1650).
Camp Masters Sign-Up
In order for a group of people to reserve a Camp, they must first designate a Camp Master who must submit the Camp Master Application. This should be done as early as possible so that the individual campers can pre-register and specify their Camp! Only one person needs to be signed up as a Camp Master, so please coordinate this to avoid duplication! No camps will be assigned after August 31
