[Bordermarch] 12th Night

[LadyVal at aol.com]

Greetings my dear Ericus,
 
I understand the Barony is not supposed to pay the rental  fee for the 
building use for events unless we advertise the event, have members  sign 
waivers, and have non-members pay the non-member fee, and since  Bordermarch's 
Twelfth Night has always been a "non-event" gathering, with no  waivers 
required,  I personally paid the fee, plus the deposit and clean-up  fee, and it 
was decided to ask for a $5 donation for adults at the door,  with a $1 fee 
for children ages 6 - 12. By the time feast started, we had not  only 
collected money to repay the amount paid to the Church, but also $192  additional.  
The Barony might decide to keep this amount in a separate  fund (not mixed 
with baronial funds) to use for future Twelfth Night events  expenses.  I am 
going to put the funds in a marked account for the  Barony members to use 
for next year's use, with the guidelines of our  Treasurer.
 
Valencia

Excellencies,
I arrived late and the 'gate' was already  closed.  I got so caught up in 
saying 
"hello" to folks that I  neglected to find the gate keeper. If someone 
could tell 
me where to send  my fee (there were three of us), I will get it to you 
ASAP.
Thank  you,
EricS

Hello One and  All,

What a GREAT 12th Night we had this year. Lady Angelica (I  will learn to 
pronounce correctly this year) and her Crew did an  outstanding job keeping 
it 
all together for the day. Thank you L. Angel  for organizing it at the last 
minute and then of coarse running it through  out the day. Many thanks also 
to 
all who helped L Angel make this happen.  Some of you are new to the SCA, 
some 
just visiting  and others  old hats but each of you added to our experience 
and 
we thank you.  


The food was plentiful thanks to all that provided & the  fighting was 
mighty 
thanks to Lord Chritian and Lord Zain. We had  twenty total participants 
demoing 
their talents in chivalric and/or rapier  which is more fighters then in 
recent 
years. Along with the fighters were  many visitors, friends and family. 
Lady 
Stephanie alone had 15 by her side  getting to know what we were about. 
Vivat L.  
Stephanie!

Wolfstar made a great showing and had links and  Baudoin cooking for all to 
partake of. Thank you Wolfstar it was so good  to have you back. Vivat!

HE AmberLea along with her two beautiful  daughters helped us sing for our 
supper. As always you sounded wonderful.  It brings back so many memories 
for us 
when you sing. Vivat as  well!

We had 77 folks sign in but there were another 20-25  spectators who stayed 
through out the day so over all a very successful  12th Night Gathering. 
Thank 
you HE Valencia for your time greeting folks  at the door as well as your 
generous donation to the facility in order to  make this gathering happen. 
You 
have been a true and noble friend to  Bordermarch and we thank you from the 
bottom of our  hearts.

Lord Beau and Lady Karen loudly but eloquently presented  us with a 
Baronial 
Pickle and Pickle Fork that we will treasure for  years. It's all based on 
the 
yodeling pickle that L. Karen has and HE  Santiago has yet to see or hear. 
"The 
Baronial Pickle" will be taken  everywhere.  To be continued.....

Lord Calvin received a  wonderful personal gift from Lord Christian for 
fighting 
undefeated and  was named 12th Night Baronial Champion. There were many 
styles of  

rapier fighting demonstrated and he gracefully fought through them  all. 
Vivat.

And last but not least Yule Ms Rule was crowned being  a first time visitor 
from 
Buna but attends a college in Huntsville.  I  believe her name was Mickey. 
She 
chose m'Lord Tavon(sp) to Rule  with her and had what looked like a great 
time. 
We so hope they will  return and become a part of the Bordermarch family it 
was 
great serving  beside them.

And as always thanks for your continued love,  support and friendship this 
past 
year. Santiago and I can never repay you  by words, thoughts or deeds for 
all you 

have done to inspire us.  


May God bless and touch each of your lives this  year,

Elisabeth and  Santiago
