Greetings from your Springfaire Stewards, Elisabeth and Medb.

Springfaire this year was proof that "Life is Good in Elfsea" and was a superb illustration that many hands make for light work.

We know that we will miss someone in this list, so we apologize up front if we missed someone.

Thanks go to...(and in no particular order...)

Aislyn and her incredible gate crew who checked in about 100 more people that we were expecting.
Feaghus who kept up an archery range in the winds
Raimond who provided two tents for the waterbearers, helped with set up and tear down and shed and we are sure a host of other things
Daire, who put up the list ropes twice because of a picky autocrat and had his event reports done and ready to mail on Saturday night
Dirk who coordinated the light list, provided a spiffy prize, and just generally contributed to the fun
Justin, who helped set up, tear down, unload at the shed, was caught helping set up tents for campers, and managed to fight in the list, and a host of other activities
Elias who showed himself well as herald par excellence on the list field
Caelin who fed us well and his really cool feast crew - Caius, Janie, House Crane,  - he beat us to the email and listed all of his incredible crew
Owen and Janie who both were there whenever we needed them to fill in wherever we needed them until the last bit of tidying up was done
Sabine who greeted our newcomers in style, helped with set up, tear down and clean up and is currently handling the lost and found
Cassandra and William who stayed with us until the last car cleared and made sure that all of the confetti was cleared from the hall
Eithne and Falconrose who made sure we all had water and got our hurts attended to
Irina who helped with gate and feast and all the other things she did
LaNieve for taking care of the kids all day long
Gustav and Sean for doing the most thankless job of all - parking duty - your efforts kept the paved area free for walking and for easy loading and unloading
Sioban who did the second most thankless job of all, Stewardess de la Toilette
Inez - for making sure our merchants were taken care of
Gaye Lyn for the great Pyansky egg class for the kids
Sibri for providing those really cool gift bags - our prizes looked great!
Asa for coordinating the Artisan competition and providing a really great prize basket
Snorri who brought up that magnificent box from Kief and helped judge the bardic

And for all of those who helped in some way and we just weren't around to catch you at it, we give our most humble thanks.  You are the reason "Life is good in Elfsea."

Now for the last bit of business.  As we all know, nothing is finished up until the paperwork gets done.

All of you, and you know who you are, who have outstanding paperwork, please be sure to complete it in a timely fashion.  The Stewards still have their "enforcement tools" and will seek you out.  The event report is ASAP and we would like to complete it on time.

Lastly, we would like to extend our personal thanks to their Excellencies and our Seneschal for allowing us to try out a bunch of new ideas with this event and for their support during the event.  Springfaire was all about smiling faces and your smiles were infectious.

We remain in most humble service to Elfsea and Ansteorra,
Elisabeth and Medb
