ES - From Elfsea Defender Prize Coordinator

[Arabella de Montacute]

Greetings from Arabella de Montacute,
	Each year we hold a Defender Tournament in September.  Each year we have a 
large competitor turnout, as many as 40 each in Chivalric and Rapier and 20 
in Archery, to compete for the ability to represent Elfsea.  I suspect this 
year we will have more, remember there are no other events opposite ours.  
Furthermore, one of the reasons we have so many in our lists is because we 
give away great prizes.
        One of the noble virtues is largess, (donations, gifts, and 
contributions). This is a reminder that we need items for our prize baskets 
for this year's Defender.  Instead of doing a chest this year we are giving 
multiple baskets for our Defenders; Chivalric, Rapier, and Archery, and a 
basket each for the Culinary and Culture parts of Embassy Row.
        Suggestions items might include: any kind of hand made gifts, 
candles, candle sticks, soaps, feast gear, natural fabrics or fibers, trim, 
medieval looking buttons, natural beads, medieval reference books, needle 
work, woven items, duct tape, leather, buckles, armor hardware, sewing 
items, hand held fans, table cloths and napkins, smaller baskets, medieval 
looking silver ware, decorative blades, sunscreen, individual bug spray, Dr 
Scholl’s foot pads, tent stakes, twine, scented oils, period games, 
calligraphy pens, ect…
        Please contact me at 817-467-6959 or ladyarabella at hotmail.com  I’d 
like to have the items before the event so I can take the time to indicate 
on each item who donated it.  (I’d rather not do all of this at the event, 
….please)
		In faithful service to Barony and Kingdom,
		Arabella
