A bid has been received and accepted for the 2005 Ansteorran Heraldic &
Scribal Symposium (AH&SS). I am pleased to announce that the Shire of
Middleford has been awarded the event. Event announcements, an August 
Black Star ad, and more details will be forthcoming. Immediate details include:
~ Event: Ansteorran Heraldic & Scribal Symposium
~ Site: Central Texas College in Killeen, TX, Shire of Middleford*
~ Date: Saturday, August 20, 2005 **
~ Cost: FREE ***
Footnotes:
* - Since the symposium became an annual event, this will be the first time
it has been held in the Southern Region.
** - This is the Saturday on the last weekend of Pennsic. It is the only
date the college had available for Middleford's bid. While we will lose some
heralds and scribes to Pennsic (and we wish them a safe and fun trip), the
remaining heralds, scribes, and populace should have a very good symposium.
*** - Yes, FREE. A donor is covering the event costs so this event can be
held for free. No NMS fee because it is free. You still have to show a blue
card or sign the waiver though.

Greetings from the site steward for the 2005 Ansteorran Heraldic and Scribal
Symposium. 
I have been chosen by the Shire of Middleford to be the site steward for
this event. Central Texas College has allowed the use of their facilities on
August 20th, 2005. The college is located between Killeen and Copperas Cove,
Texas. A map and directions will be following. You may go to www.ctcd.edu if
you want to learn more about the college. The college is not on the military
installation, but is located on US 190.
The tentative schedule is for site to open at 8:00 a.m. and close at 6:00
p.m. with an hour and a half for people to go off the college campus to eat
lunch at one of the many nearby restaurants. Classes are being coordinated
by Magnus von Lubek and anyone interested in teaching a class can contact
him or myself and I will be happy to forward the information to him.
Unfortunately this occurs on the last weekend of Pennisic and I understand
that many of the heralds on this list will have prior commitments there. I
submitted several dates and this was the only one available. For those not
going, I strongly encourage you to attend this event so that you can learn
more about heraldry and scribal arts.

In service,
Ld. Eirik Halfdanarson
