[Bryn-gwlad] Thank you from the Gate Coordinator

[Sunny Briscoe]

Greetings,

As I was frantically getting ready for the event on Friday, I was
overcome with this sense of calmness as I realized that while I was
Gate Coordinator for a huge event (over 350 guests were on site), I
would be working with friends.  I would like to thank the following
staff members below (listed in alphabetical order).

Alasa (who not only worked a shift, but also provided transportation
so another could as well)
Lady Catalina Ana de Salamanca (who with Esteban and Goldweard helped
keep me cheerful and awake)
Lord Ceallach Mac Donal
Bantiarna Coblaith Mhumhneach
Corbin O Cathasaigh (who was hesitant, but said it was fun and would
do it again)
Master Daniel di Lincoln
Lady Danielle DeMarseilles (who with Master Daniel blessed us with
music in the late evening)
Sir Giotto do Giovanni
Goldweard of Golias
Illiaria (who also helped with some electrical issues so that we could
have both light and hot cocoa at the same time)
Lady Isabella
Isabella (Sam) (who not only worked several clerk shifts, also marked
in all of the receipt books "SCA Inc, Barony of Bryn Gwlad)
Lady Isabelica Gonzales de Guadalupe
Lucia (Kelly)
Lucia Digioia
Honorable Lady Myfanwy (who, with Lucia (Kelly) and Thomas of Conway
worked what was probably the biggest rush of the morning)
Rhiannon verch Ioan
Lord Ricardo Esteban de Salamanca
Lord Stefan li Rous
Lord Thomas of Conway

I would also like to thank all of the members of the Guard, including
those who came out of retirement temporarily, to help keep things
secure; Mistress Saundra and Lisette, for being so supportive; and
Gretchen for her patience even in the late hours.

And lastly, I would like to thank my dear Lord Rurik, Lord Wilhelm,
Lady Pamela, Illiaria, Baron Niklas, and those other kinds souls who
are just a blur, for helping get the Gate Pavilion set up and running.

I am sure that I missed others, and please know that your efforts were
very much appreciated.

In humble service,

Signora Elisabetta Morosini
