[Ansteorra] BAD III Silent Auction

[Melissa Baxter-Kosub]

I would like to thank everyone who donated and bid on items at the 
silent auction held at Bjornsborg's Academy of Defense III.  All 
proceeds go to the Barony to help us not only alleviate the normal 
expenses of a group, but also maintain our pavilions, kitchen items and 
loaner equipment.  We were able to raise $450 with the top selling item 
being, if anyone was curious, the Lions of Bjornsborg pendant.  I hope 
this inspires other groups in their fund raising activities.

Special thanks go to Mistress Adelaide and a group of very helpful young 
lords (I'm sorry I didn't get all of your names) for helping with set 
up. Lady Maria and Sabina were integral in administrating the auction 
while I was busy introducing a local reporter to some of the attendees 
of the event.  This auction could not have gone as smoothly as it did 
without the help of these wonderful lords and ladies.

YIS,
Lady Branwen le Baxtere
Hospitaler, Bjornsborg
