Read again. they are asking for donations. the Baronies money is not being
used. As for the use of baroies monies, there has been in the past the
ability of a group to use SCA funds to offset the costs for someone coming
in and teaching classes etc.(last I heard of this was long ago and I have
never seen it done). Crowns in the past have accepted donations to provide
the Ansteorran presence at pennsic. DONATIONS, not levies.
