<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Greetings to the Western Region:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>It is with great regret that I must announce my
immediate resignation as Western Regional Seneschal. I have greatly
enjoyed the job, but between school, family and job it has become too much
stress in my life. I have spoken with Master Fairborne and he has agreed
to take my resignation immediately. Effective now, Mistress Ulrica of
Blacklake is the interim Regional Seneschal. Her application had been the
only one received by myself and Master Fairborne. Her appointment is
temporary for now, but the opening will be posted in the BLACKSTAR and a request
for applications will be forthcoming. I encourge anyone interested to
apply. I am sorry to have vacated with six months still pending, but as I
said my stress level was at maximum and since I could not quit school, quit my
job and didn't want to divorce my family this resignation was the only thing
left. I am sure that Mistress Ulrica will do well. Steve and I will
still be playing as you must have some fun to relieve stress too!</FONT></DIV>
