understand your frustration. I was born and raised in <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Florida</st1:place></st1:State> so hurricane problems are very
personal to me. On Tuesday, we donated money to the Salvation Army marked for
relief from Katrina. I do not have clothes to donate because I have just made a
large donation to another charity. However, there are many, many people who are
collecting right now, so you should not feel like the people of Elfsea are
ignoring this problem because they have not given anything to you. Some Elfsea
people have no money so they are going to <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Dallas</st1:place></st1:City>
to help sort donated stuff and help personally. Maybe, you should have asked, “What
are the people of Elfsea doing to help?” instead of assuming that we are doing
nothing. Some may prefer to help privately, and that is their choice.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

results from Elfsea. But as of today, only 2 people from Elfsea have
contacted me directly with an offer of supply donations.... being our good
Baron and the ever-giving Mistress Xene. The only donations delivered to
me were from non SCA'ers.... being my children, grandmother, aunt, and a close
neighborhood friend (<em><i><font face=Arial><span style='font-family:Arial'>whom
is currently campaigning for more goods from her church group</span></font></i></em>).
They all know these items are to initially be delivered to SCA evacuees who've
taken refuge in <st1:State w:st="on">Louisiana</st1:State> & <st1:State
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Mississippi</st1:place></st1:State>... and still
gave to our cause without hesitation.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

than 1% response from such a large barony is shocking... and I know we all have
things we don't use or wear that could be put to a better cause. This
is an effort that has been coordinated by several kingdoms, and in Elfsea we
are the largest collection point for Ansteorra. I'm going to personally
travel with the items into <st1:State w:st="on">Louisiana</st1:State> & <st1:State
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Mississippi</st1:place></st1:State> to the
end-points to ensure their safe delivery... hopefully providing additional
protection for Sarah, who'll be driving most of the trip. This is not a scam,
but a perfectly legitimate crusade to help our friends in need. You're most

<br>
<br>
I would like to thank Lady Colete, HL Rixende and Centurion Tomas for their
quick response and personal contributions of time in organizing a relief effort
from Elfsea. I will be conveying 80 rolls of duct tape to them prior to their
September 8th trip. <br>
<br>
I encourage all who can, to contact one of these good gentles with whatever
assistance you can render. For transferring your goods, Lady Colete is
available during the day and HL Rixende can be reached in the evenings. Please
contact them in advance (see below) to be sure they can still handle any goods
you may have to donate.<br>
I know many (myself included) would like to help more directly but are unable
to make the journey themselves. Let us make use of these good folks and help
maximize their efforts!<br>
<br>
Thank you one and all,<br>
HE <st1:PersonName w:st="on">Armand Dragonetti</st1:PersonName><br>
Lord Elfsea<br>
<br>
(counting my many blessings, not the least of which are the good people of
Elfsea and the SCA)</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
