SC - wedding feasts numbers

[Christine A Seelye-King]

Setting a bad example?

Seriously, we are a small shire.  If there were a lot more members, we 
wouldn't wear so many hats.  Everyone in our shire is doing at least one job 
at our feast/event.  Our current autocrat assures me that we will have a 
cleanup crew for our next event.  We will see.  Unfortunately, Things still 
must get done.  We always try to leave a place better than we find it.  Its 
surpassing how many really nice places let us use their facilities for free 
while they charge others.  Yes, even after working a twenty hour day 
preparing, cooking cleaning up, I and others have been known to come back in 
the next day and shampoo or wax the feast hall floor.  Do we enjoy this?  No. 
 Do we do it because we enjoy the end result, yes?  During our last event for 
the first time, our head cook was able to join in the evening festivities.  

I do not feel we are setting a bad example.  Rather, we work together doing 
the grunt awful work so that we can have a nice event.  While we are in the 
kitchen, others are working on other tasks.

If I have misunderstood your comment, I apologies.
