<DIV><FONT size=2>For those of you that will not be attending Coronation,
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>David Saint David will be spearheading a workday at The Stones
of Raven's Fort site this Saturday, July 12th. General site prep is the
order of the day. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>We have received permission to cut down not only the medium
and small trees to widen the entry road, but the two large pines at the
sharp bends as well. This will give us a near straight shot in. If
the stars and planets are in alignment we will cut down the smaller trees this
weekend. The two big pines will be taken down at a work day in the near
future when Baron Brian and others can join in with the fun.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Another project that could be worked on this weekend is the
resetting of the stone circle. Raven's Fort has become famous for The
Stones. Pride in our Barony tells me that they should be maintained at
every work weekend. It is a shame to see them in such
disarray. Some of the upright stones need to be leveled and the cap stones
set in place. Of course it is always the right time to cut the grass
around The Stones. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Brush needs to be cleared in the Equestrian area and carried
to the bonfire.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>NOW THE FUN PART !</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>After the work is done we will retire to Saint David's
adjacent home for an evening meal. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>The food will be provided for you.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>After dinner sweets or spirits are encouraged, but not
mandatory.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Please bring what you would like to drink, plus drinking
water.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Please plan on washing your dirty dishes at home.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Overnight camping will be allowed on Saint David's front forty
or in the far downs. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>No camping at The Stones site.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>If you plan to attend </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>PLEASE RSVP </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>to me privately or to this list </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>so that we can make sure that we cook enough for
everyone.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I you have any questions, please call or write.
