<DIV>
<DIV>Greetings to All,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We missed those of you who were unable to attend, you missed a wonderful
event.</DIV>
<DIV>We were graced with the presence of many notables to our Ansteorran
history and were pleased to have them among us. Their Graces Patrick Michael
and Julia, Ulstead, and Jonathan and Willow are those known to me. If others
attended which I did not encounter, I mean no offense, but only did not
see them. There were many Knights of the Realm present, and Lord and Lady
Elfsea honored us by presiding over our court in TRMs name. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Dreamers from Loch Ruadh, Elfsea, Steppes, and Rosenfeld
abounded, many new faces were seen from other groups such as
Middleford.</DIV>
<DIV>To our New Comers, Welcome, we hope that you enjoyed your time among us
and that you will return to spend time with us.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Special Thanks go out to Falconrose for their tireless efforts in
assisting us with various set-up and tear down activities, and for covering a
significant portion of the security of our guests.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Our Thanks also go to Lord Grimvere, a past Titled Bard of Loch Ruadh,
for gracing us with the presence of his unique and wonderful Bard Town. This
creation is an amazing enhancement of atmosphere of any event and provides a
much deserved stage setting to the bards of the realm. We are honored that he
chooses to join us at our event.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Lughnasad ran smoothly and seamlessly due to the efforts of Lady Aingeal
and Lady Katheryn as Autocrats. They were well supported by a variety of
Coordinators and Officers, and volunteers from all corners. I'm sure the
Autocrats will publish specific thanks to one and all as they have time to do
so.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So, on to the awards of which I am aware. Any omissions are due to my
personal lack of knowledge, and have no bearing on the abilities of the
persons overlooked. I will leave the postings of winners and champions to our
Autocrats or the Herald.</DIV>
<DIV>AoA: Lord Gruffydd Vawr ap Rhodri</DIV>
<DIV>AoA: Lady Vivian McKinnon</DIV>
<DIV>Sable Comet: Lord Tegwared McAuley</DIV>
<DIV>King's Archer (please pardon any error in this designation): Lord Kerrick
(sp?) from Elfsea</DIV>
<DIV>Ember: Lady Bice de Pietro</DIV>
<DIV>Ember: Lady Gwenllian Hertewelle</DIV>
<DIV>Ember: Baroness Dana Mac an Ghabhann</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>VIVAT! one and all.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks also go to Lord and Lady Elfsea for presiding over our court.
Their grace, honor, and humor are greatly esteemed, and we are greatly
indebted to them for giving of their time and love to us. We are all honored
to receive our awards at their hands. Vivat Baron, Vivat
Baroness. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Lughnasad was a great success and fun was had by all. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thank You</DIV></DIV><BR><BR>
