Society of Amateur Vikings for General Reenactment-SAVGR
An all inclusive group of hobbyists who want to educate through reenactment Viking life, dispel the myths surrounding it, and have fun doing it! We are family friendly and open to those who are looking to get started in the hobby. Our minimum requirements are low, we teach and perform in an open and relatable way. Viking has had a stigma of

the dirty, angry, barbarian for a long time and we want to show that they were regular people who lived regular lives.
