<DIV><STRONG>Greetings to my Friends in Bordermarch and Beyond,</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>Melees are just around the corner andm as discussed at the
September populace meeting, I am excited about running a booth of "garage
sale"type items to be sold to help disaster relief efforts. Ii am
purchasing a new pavilion for this, and we have given it the name of "Valencia's
V</STRONG><STRONG>intages", but am asking your help.</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>First, is there anyone who would like to be my assistant/deputy in
this endeavor? It will mainly be set up on Saturday and announced that all
proceeds will be donated to relief efforts and/or the Red Cross. I do
need assistance in helping to gather used items to sell, such as books,
garb, feast gear, candles, candleholders, tablecloths, napkins, jewelry, hats or
headgear, baskets, or other useful items of interest to
SCA.</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>Second, could everyone please begin to gather any items of this
kind that you have outgrown, or are of no use and just taking up room in your
closet? I dont want to compete with our hard-working Hospitaler, who has
loaner garb and things to lend to newcomers, but I am sure we all have "stuff"
we need to get rid of. </STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>So happy to be back in Bordermarch and looking forward to seeing
everyone soon,</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>Much Love,</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG>Valencia</STRONG></DIV></FONT></BODY></HTML>
