ANST - The Crown needs your help...

Don't know why it would be that bad.

First, let me state that I am not a representative of the SCA, Kingdom
nor Crown. Second, I may certainly have misheard what was going on since
it had been a long day, I was tired at the time and far away from the
announcement.

This is something that is the possibility at every event, if alcohol is
provided or not. We have the possibility of being sued because we held
the event and the activities that occured at it, planned/sponsored or
not.

This is a very serious reality in our world. This is something that
every person who contemplates being Crown, Seneschal (Kingdom or Local),
or Territorial Nobility should realize.

Btw, I will be the Seneschal of Bryn Gwlad starting April 1st. I
personally am a brewer who donates his work as prizes or taverns. I am
very aware of the ability of me being sued for either of these things.

Ciao,
