possible clue) have argued that we should no longer do this demo and for
one reason: we do not get members for our effort. Maybe we don't.
But that is not why we do demos; if it were, then we need to stop doing
the one at the Arlington Public Library, as well. In fact, we need
to stop doing demos altogether, because they are a drain and a waste of
manpower on our Barony, with no return. We need to concentrate on
making ourselves feel better, gearing up for Arts and Science
competitions, wars, trying to take the Crown (for the heavies among us) or
Queen's champion (for our light fighters). That's all we need to
concentrate on!</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

friendliness of most of the people who make up the Society. If not for the
SCA, I would never have met (and later married) the Honorable Lady Robin.

remember us and try to find us, in person, on the Internet, or however.

Lady Ascelyn stated in her comments below (actually sent too late to have
been of any use to anyone), personal and mundane issues (a heart attach,
work, loss of my father) have kept me from taking on the role of Highland
Games Coordinator this year, but I do know that there are several in our
barony who, in years past, have asked to help and work with me. Have
those, like our current seneschal, decided that it is not worth while to
participate? I must think so, especially since I have sent several e-mails
to those in administrative high levels in the Barony about where to send
the Passes (roughly from the time I told our Baron privately that there
would need to be someone to take over because I couldn't this year) and
have yet to see anything on the list (except for HL Robin's and Don
Alaric's emails) about this.</SPAN></FONT></SPAN></DIV>
