<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I would like to thank everyone who came out to the Arlington
Library Demo last Saturday, it was another great success. The library was
delighted with what we did again this year, and we will be doing it again next
year.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>The rough estimate is we spoke to between 100 and 120 people.
I don’t know how many signed the contact sheets so I hope the hospitaler,
or whoever was playing deputy, will have that information and post it.
And in addition to any information the hospitaler has, I would be grateful if
everyone who was there posted a few words about what they did and who they
spoke to if they don’t mind.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I did not make it out to watch the fighting but I understand
it was very well received, as was the brief bit of dancing and bardic that was
done in the demo area. The arts and crafts displayed were again, and as
always, worthy of any kingdom competition. The multimedia and video
displays were wonderful, and helped a great deal in conveying the atmosphere of
out events. I personally had a very good day again, none of the kids lost
any fingers while handling my swords…<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I wish I could thank everyone by name, but honestly my brain
was just a little too fried to remember who all was there. So instead of
leaving someone out by accident I will simply say thank you again, everyone.
You know who you are, and you are the people who make these baronies and
cantons, and this kingdom, run.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
