Countessa Vanessa is planning to attend the Northern Regional practice this weekend & is willing to do an authorization class.  This may be the last opportunity before wInterkingdom to get authorized.  
I will, unfortunately, not be there as we have a schedule conflict, but please seek her out at the practice if you are interested.  We are gradually collecting some spare and loaner gear, so don't let concerns about gear availability keep you from taking the class.
Also, just a reminder, if you intend to apply to be the next Boffer Marshal, the deadline is drawing near and you will need this class.
Thanks!
Elisabeta
