[Ravensfort] Brew Day Get Together

[Barbara Gilbert]

Zorcon and the populace,
Yes the last Baronial Brewing Championship was held at the Court of the
Great Khan. Niklas and I decided that the group had to many Championships
and we canceled the Brewing and the Knife Axe and Spear as Baronial
Championships. We ask people to sponsor these events as a contest and we
continued to have these contest from time to time.

The well deserving Shula did not receive the pass down horn. It took almost
a year to get the horn back from Doug. At that time we ask Xanthe if she
wanted to donate the horn as an A&S pass down are if she wanted to keep it.
She chose to keep it so she could enter it in A&S contest. She did a
wonderful job in making the horn and she had never had the opportunity to
show it in an A&S competition.

> Dear Mistress Lorraine,
> As a point of fact, the very last official brewers and vintners
competition was held at "A day in the Court of the Khan" in April of 2002.
Quoting from your post dated May 2, 2002 titled [Ravensfort] Event Report
lifted from BG list.
> it is stated that.

> "Shula entered the Brewing competition, which I had first hand to sample
as well as many others.  Her mead was quite delectable (my favorite) and her
'Thick-as-a-Brick Ale was quite good too.  The judges were quite impressed
as well, for she won the competition hands down. Congratulations to the new
Ravensfort's Brewing Champion !!!   (SHE GOT LOTS OF PRESENTS to brew
with)."
>
> Shula of Bryn-gwlad apparently is the last person to have received the
horn, not Lord Marius of Atreides (Doug LeJeune). As a matter of fact Lord
Marius of Atreides did not even enter any ale in that particular event.
After 2002 no more brewing competitions were held here.

> Shula did make a pretty mean Ale in my opinion and deserved to carry the
beautiful horn made by Lady Xanthe.
