[Western] Passe de Armes Thanks

[Jim Long]

Passe de Armes XV was held this last weekend, and I believe that a great
time was had by all! I have a few thanks and congratulations to pass along.

Congratulations to Earl Aaron McGregor on winning both the chivalric list
and the chivalric Champion of Champions battle.
Congratulations to Honorable Lady Margaret MacDuff on winning bothe the
rapier list and the rapier Champions of Champions battle.
A special congratulations to Gunnvor Halldisdottir on her performance in the
rapier list. She is a newcomer, and was undefeated until the finals.
Congratulations to Lord Alexander von Ness, the newest Bard of Adlersruhe.
Congratulations to Honorable Lady Glorius Hund, winner of the A&S
competition.
I am a bad autocrat, for I do not remember the name of the winner of the
sewing competition. She was a visitor from the Barony of Stargate, en route
to Lillies War. Someone please correct my mistake and help me give this lady
the credit due her.

A big congrats to HL Duncan Stuart for stealing the show by proposing to his
lady in court! (She said yes! Vivat!)

The winners of the newcomers tourneys, sponsored by the Company of the Horse
and Lily:
Killian O'Kane, winner of the rapier list.
Damian LaBarre, although he was the only heavy to enter the newcomer's
tourney, he fought and acquitted himself against Baron Chiang, Earl Aaron,
and Sir Britta.

I would like to thank:

First and foremost, my feast steward, Lord Rufus, for the most incredible
feast. If you missed it, you should be sorry. Prime rib at a feast?
The waterbearers and feast servers, children of several of the Lords and
Ladys in attendance, went above and beyond the call of duty.
Lord Wilhelm and Lady Isabelle, the proprietors of the Broken Toe Tavern,
for their constant help throughout the weekend. Lady Isabelle headed the
waterbearing, and Lord Wilhelm helped with many things, including the setup
and breakdown of the fields and helping Baron Hakon fight with an unruly
trailer.
Killian O'Kane, for his help with the breakdown of the list fields.
The Assembly of Retarded Donkeys, for their constant help with table moving
and heavy lifting.
Thanks to all who were town criers: Herr Eric von Geldern, HL Duncan Stuart,
Lord Alexander von Ness, Lord Tristan, and others whom I'm sure I've
forgotten.
Thanks to the Sahara Nar Dance Troupe for performing at feast and teaching
during the day.
Thanks to Lady Akasha and her assisstants for performing the Korean tea
ceremonies.
Thanks to Baron Kainin and Baroness Oriana for providing the royalty and
taking care of the rabbits.
Thanks to my co-steward, Lady Adelaide, for moral support.
Special thanks to my better half, HL Glorius Hund, for putting up with me.

I'm sure I've missed people or misnamed people. Please flame me duly for it.
Finally, I can truly say:

In Service,
Lord Guy de Beaumont
