[Hellsgate] Candlemas A&S Thank Yous

[Martha Schreffler]

What a fantastic turn-out we had for Candlemas arts and
sciences!  I would like to thank all the
artisans who shared their work with us.  From beginner to advanced, each artisan had something unique and special
to show and it was a real gift to the rest of us.  
 
I would like to thank Lord Da’oud for coordinating the
Novice Competition and populace vote, Lady Elen for coordinating the Children’s
competition and conducting the Viking Treasure necklace class, and Marie de
Meaux for her able assistance where needed.   Thank you, Lady Sharon and Goldweard for
supplying tablecloths, Lady Alicia for supplying forms and putting the info on
the website, Stephan and Maelgwyn for heralding and the set-up team for putting
the tables in place.  Thank you to the
twenty people who volunteered to judge the championship competition. And to our
Baron and Baroness for their support of the arts.  Lastly, much appreciation all those who took
time to vote and to leave largesse for the artisans.
 
Below is a list of those who participated taken from the
sign-in sheets. My apologies if I missed anyone or misread your handwriting! –
