Scotish Games : Labor Day Weekend – Wes – Shawnah – Encampment and Fighting Demo Saturday/Sunday. Trying to get enough confirmations to make it happen. Need to find out if demo people will get comped into the event.
Boar's Head: We voted to accept the bid. To get the ad into the November Northwatch we need it submitted by September 20. Need to get it on the Kingdom Calendar - Beatriz sent that information a couple days ago. Are we having a feast? Can we set a go/no-go decision for whether or not we have feast? We don't do feast to make money. We did sell out last time we had one. Should we have a limited seating feast again, designed to break even? And, before all that, does anyone have a feast plan - does anybody want to be feast steward. Event Stewards will put out a call for feast bids for August Curia.
Baronial Event: Sept 22-24, 2023 at Camp Sinawa. Need a name and maybe a theme. Maybe a viking event, complete with viking hiking and a scavenger hunt?
Known Heralds and Scribes 2023: The bid was posted before the deadline, waiting to hear from Laurel Sovereign of Arms this weekend (at Kingdom World Heralds and Scribes). Additional request: Can we include a room ($55 per night, 2 nights) for Laurel Sovereign of Arms. Much conversation about whether or not we can legally do this. This will not push us into the negative. Moved to add this retroactively to the bid unless we determine that it's not allowed, seconded, voted, approved.
