Eldern Hills Tourney

[Pug Bainter]

> Congratulations to their Excellencies Richard of Lombardy and Catrin

> Champion and Don Horoun as the new Rapier Champion.

I unfortunately missed most of the rapier tournment while watching my
son, but got to see the end of the chivalric tournament and though it
was very well done. The two finallists were very well matched up and
very even in the choices of weapons. (Although I think the tiebreaker
should have been done in sponges.)

And I'd like to thank those people who didn't present their gifts in
court. *wink*

> it was announced that
> Baroness Charla Noel du Lac will be elevated to the Ancient and Honorable
> Order of the Laurel at Coronations.

I have to admit that it was quite amusing her surprise at this.

I unfortunately missed the festivities after court due to exhaustion, but
it was a very enjoyable event all in all.

Ciao,
