Ice Dragon, (Annual March event) Rhydderich Hael Barony (Buffalo, NY)
For several years, the Cooks' Guild served on-board to 250.  When the 
off-board grew to nearly that size, the officers asked for the cut-off to
be moved up, but none of the cooks wanted to do it, so Ice Dragon feasts have
been catered ever since.  Last feast was nearly 450.
