[Loch-Ruadh] AAA happenings

[D. Vandever]

Wonderful! This is just the type of chronicle that I am hoping to see by
looking into the groups list! I saw that incredible sedan chair but had no
idea who was responsible for its making! Now I will have it on record in the
historian files! Vivat Lock Ruadh!

> As a whole the group fielded 2 fighters in the New Fighter Tournament, 2
in

> Much of the time our encampment was deserted as all of our members were
out

> Robert de Reyes (Robbie) battled to victory as the Argent Anniversary
Youth
> Boffer Champion and Terrence won the A&S Largess Competition, both were
> recognized in Court. Ducky lasted through the semi-finals in his first

his

> carried into to court to be crowned Queen.
> All in all Loch Ruadh was well represented and equally well received at
this
