Reminder – Project Day at the Greywolf Den

Saturday, January 23rd in the afternoon
Our home is 3 miles east of archery and 1 mile due south of the social on SE 184th St – our shields will be near the mailbox to help you find your way. I will also have maps to hand out at tonight’s business meeting.

We have lots of area for sewing, scribal or whatever project you’d like to work on. Kids are welcome – we have a play room. Fighters are welcome – we have a large backyard. Food is welcome – we love to share.

Dinner will be chicken burritos. If you’re staying, I ask that you bring along something to share.

Ursalmas volunteer request

Greetings,

I just got word from One of the Ursalmas wranglers. They ask that I circulate the requests around.

1) They are looking for people, preferably new people who would be
willing to be retinue for the event. I assume for various visiting
excellencies etc. Contact Their excellencies Bryson and Angharad.

2) They are also looking for volunteers to help man gate for at least a couple hours or more at the event.

Feel free to forward to other lists

many and I know I will miss names but here goes.

stayed late to help set up and clean up (and reminded me to sit down when I
hurt too much to walk but did it anyway).

All the kids who served the tables and Lady Emma for wrangling them.
Lord Evrard and Lady Natasha for managing court.
Lady Irene for running lists and being my stand-in as court coordinator.
Lady Symonne, Lady Sophia and all those who came to help test and choose
recipes, help with precooks, and the day-of kitchen staff. Oh goodness, the
wonderful food!

Lady Talveen for the brewer’s contest.
Lady Marguerite for the dessert auction and the wonderful storytelling
contest.

with me.

In service to Wyewood and the Dream,
Lady Avine
