Our Crown calls upon all able bodied citizens to help stem the tide. Elfsea stands ready to answer the call! Now for the logistics, as an army marches on their stomach. Master Caelin has graciously volunteered to provide a meal plan. Please contact him with any food allergies. Soon, Master Caelin will provide a menu and cost per person. As in years past, the camp will help the Head Cook with prep work and cleanup. Please send His Excellency Alejandro the number of people in your group, and the dimensions and style (modern vs period and shape) of your tent. Elfsea has, over the past couple of Gulf Wars, enjoyed a goodly amount of space. We have all done a wonderful job of pre-registering, so keep up the good work. ACCEPS preregistration ends on February 24th. Mail in preregistration ends on January 31st. Let's show our honorable and valiant foemen the strength and chivalry that is Ansteorra!

However, being as she is mortal, the elves refused her and sent her swimming back ? for a limited time only, with Tales from the West? Come wish her well, seek her wisdom, and drink our bubbly beverages as we hold a combined revel for the brief, but poignant return of Baroness Alys and for Conal and Miguel?s 21st anniversary celebration. The revelry begins before anyone arrives and continues after most have passed out. Don?t miss the mischief, mayhem, and mayhem - twice the mayhem, twice the fun I always say! If you are lucky, very lucky, you may get a glimpse of the famed and beautiful Guenhyvar? of legend! When: Saturday, February 2nd, 8 pm. Where: House Porto ? 2125 Los Rios Blvd in Plano, TX 75074 Why: Please see above. Repeat until you have a clear understanding. Vivite, amate, ridete, No guarantees of Guenhyvar sightings. Drinks are to be consumed responsibly ? except by me, I live here. Waste is a crime. Free the Munchkins!
