Yes, Michael and Mirabelis and several others early in the day,
and all the people that came to the work weekends
and did the scrolls
and y'all for all the mowing days ahead of time.
It does take a village... or in our case a barony.
My point is that Brian has matured his leadership abilities over the last five years.
The way he approaches tasks and obstacles is different.
A smooth running event doesn't just happen.
Delegation is a learned art.
Commitment is a virtue.

I totally agree. We are lucky to have such a hard working Baron who wears many hats and works so hard for us. Thanks for those chosen few who stayed to help take down the last many things needing to be done. I want to add Mike to that list of Dare, Magnus, and VNV. I saw his truck full of all of the kitchen trash etc. What a fun job that must have been to get rid of! Thanks again, xo G

I would like to add my words of praise for Baron Brian's running of
Defender. He took over as Autocrat with short notice and did an excellent
job of pulling things together with the little time left. As far as I could
tell, everything that needed to be taken care of was competed without
exception. No unfinished tasks. Kudos. I must admit that I was skeptical
about his plans for the blue velvet tent when we started, but it functioned
beautifully and provided much need shade. Even when everyone else had
packed up their personal belongings and headed home, Brian stayed for hours
with a small hand full of helpers ( Dare, Magnus and myself ) to completely
breakdown the site, clean the kitchen, make several trips to the storeroom
and he even took pots home to be washed. Again, nothing remained undone.
As someone that has personally autocrated sixteen times, I tip my hat to you
sir.
I would remiss if I did not also add my thanks to Runa for a feast that was
served in a timely manner and was very tasty and diverse. I believe all
bellies were quite satisfied.
Peace,
Volod NotVlad
P.S. I have the ropes from the horse stables which I will bring to Officers
Meeting.
