Now that King's College is over, I have many people recognize and
thank.  I hope you will all bear with me, as the list is lengthy.  I
would like to believe that this list is conclusive, but I am sure I am
missing some, for which I can only humbly beg forgiveness.

First, all of the instructors, who are too numerous to name
individually, without whom there would be no event.  Each one of them
has helped in advancing the state of Arts and Sciences in Ansteorra.
If you took a class that you enjoyed or learned something from,
remember to thank your teacher!

The Kingdom Minister of Arts and Sciences, Mistress Marguerite Dinard,
who arranged the class schedule, coordinating 15 tracks of classes.

My evil twin, Mistress Gwyneth Blackrose, who prepared and served the
sideboard lunch.

Lord Goldweard of St Golias, my gate coordinator, who was the first to
step forward to volunteer when I originally said, "Hey, how about Bryn
Gwlad doing King's College?", and his hard-working band of gate
workers, who coped heroically with the great influx of participants.

My deputy treasurer, HL Katrina of York, who took over my treasurer
duties so I could focus on being autocrat.

HL Colin MacNachtan, my site liaison, who procured us the site and
handled all arrangements with the school.

Don Ceallach mac Donal, my incredibly responsive and pro-active web minister.

Our Baron and Baroness, Phelim Gervase and Myfanwy ferch Eifion, who
brought out their big pavilion to provide shade for the outdoor
classes.

Lord Alfred Huddlestone, who brought his own pavilion for the glass
working classes, and also provided the coffee in the morning.

Wentliana, who transported the Baronial pavilion.

Centurion Uther Blackthorne, who spearheaded putting up the pavilions,
and all of those who helped with this.

Don Avery Shaw, who acted as Royal Liaison and also responded to last
minute calls for help (and brought me breakfast).

Lord Wolf der Gaenger and Lord Thomas of Conway, who retrieved the
pavilion, tables, and serving supplies from storage and got them to
the appropriate people.

The pavilion take-down crew, whom I cannot even mention by name,
because they were finished before I knew they had started.

Mistress Amata Amati d'Arezzo, who posted class schedules at each
room, and HL Alina Mitchell, who cleaned them up afterwards.

Everyone who helped deal with last-minute changes when part of the
site I was planning on using was blocked off at the last minute.

All of these people have my deepest gratitude.


Gwenneth Bowynne of Glamorgan
Autocrat - King's College
