This is why Grim is perfect for the finance committee!!!! Looking ahead and 
looking out for the group!! Oh and did I mention tight!!
Remember we are having a silent auction at an up coming event that Helene is 
checking into. We already have a shield blank donated, a writing slant, circlet, 
ceramics, earrings and other items. The money from this will be used for leather 
and whatever is needed to repair heavy and to purchase light equipment. If we 
have enough item donated and raise enough money we will not have to get into the 
coffers. It might sound like we have money however we will have a monthly fee 
for the populace meeting of $15 and no immediate event to add money. Thanks to 
Kat's careful panning little funds will be used for the yule. 

I would love to see the silent auction raise enough to get a rapier and the 
repairs needed! With this being said....donate donate donate!!!

PS How much is gravy worth to Grim?????

No problem. I guess we can discuss this at next populace. Might also discuss 
what we might need for the event we have planned in May, June or whenever and 
project the budget out to see what has priority. Need to work on some fund 
raisers. Perhaps a gravy social.......mmmmmm Gravy......sorry I digress. Grim

I don't think we'll spend that much.  If we can get more interest in
rapier, we can justify it, although to have more interest, we'd need
more gear...it's a cranky cycle.

Perhaps we can talk to BG about a long-term loan of a blade.  Ioannes
is willing to loan his gear when he's not fencing, so that's a start.

The rapier Brandubh found is about $100, so that's certainly an idea.

I'm not sure exactly how much we have in the bank, but remind me and
we'll talk about it in December.  We have a great rapier resource in
BG, so let me talk to them.
