> Greetings Ansteorra,
>
> I would like to give everyone a general update of the status of Gulf Wars.
> As everyone knows, the hurricanes this year caused much hardship to our
> friends and hosts in Gleann Abhann and Meridies.  Many of the coordinators
> for Gulf Wars have had their lives disrupted for quite some time. 
> However,
> everything is on track and Gulf Wars will be as good as it has been for 
> the
> past 14 years.
>
> The Gulf Wars site, King's Arrow Ranch, did take quite a bit of damage.
> There are MANY trees down in just about every area of the site.  The owner
> of KAR has made the site available to any SCA group that would like to go
> and work on clean up of their areas.  If any group in Ansteorra would like
> to make a trip to the site to do clean up, I just ask that you let my land
> deputy, Lady Honor Dubois, know that you are planning a trip.  She can be
> reached by email at mysticflacon at onebox.com.  At this time, there is not a
> Kingdom wide trip planned.  If a group or individual would like to take up
> this task, please drop me an email at ansteorra at gulfwars.org.  BTW, the
> Ansteorran Gate survived the hurricane with only very minor damage to the
> exterior finish.  Its durability is a credit to everyone who designed and
> worked on the gate.
>
> The owner of the King's Arrow Motel would also like to make it known that
> the Motel did take extensive damage to its roof.  Many of the rooms may 
> not
> be available for this year.  If you stayed at the Motel in the past, or
> think that you have reservations, please contact the Motel directly for 
> the
> complete status of any rooms.
>
> Pre-registration is going on now and will be open until January 31st for
> mail registration and until Feb 14th for online registration via ACCEPS. 
> At
> this time, the online registration is not up but will be soon.  The status
> of the online registration can be checked at the main Gulf Wars website,
> www.gulfwars.org.  The pre-registration form was printed in the December
> Black Star and will also be in the January Black Star.  You can also find 
> a
> link to the form at  http://gulfwars.org/GWXVRegistrationAnsteorra2.doc.

> Please feel free to email me if you have questions or problems concerning
> Ansteorra and Gulf Wars. I can be reached at ansteorra at gulfwars.org.
