[Officers] Fw: Chatelaine position -

[Debra Greywolf]

Officers,



We have received two separate applications for Chatelaine (Mir's was already sent to the Officers list).
I have asked both applicants to be prepared at tomorrow's business meeting to make a brief statement to those in attendance, and I will take some questions from the populace as well.



Expected timeline:

  *   Next week I will forward their messages to the Populace for their commentary.
  *   February meeting – the officers will meet immediately before hand to decide on the new Chatelaine

Subject: Chatelaine position

Good morning,

I know we've talked about this in person several times, but I realize it should also be put into writing, so....

I would like to put myself forward to fill the currently vacant position of Chatelaine of Wyewood.  While I have not previously filled a Chatelaine position, I feel I am qualified in that the main work of it is work I do already--welcoming newcomers and interested people, connecting them with information sources, introducing them to other people, and encouraging their participation.

My brief time as A&S deputy has demonstrated that I do send in reports and respond to queries in a timely manner, and that I can provide a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere (Fiber Night, for example).

My experience as a merchant puts me in a position of interacting with literally everyone, from folks who have never heard of the SCA all the way to Scadian living legends, from all sorts of backgrounds.  This gives me a constant exercise in finding what interests them, and matching that up with some sort of hook--a question for research, a craft they want to learn, whatever.  This is a very fulfilling interaction.  I have long been of the opinion that every one of us is a representative, an individual chatelaine, for the SCA in general, and our local groups in specific.

Lastly, as someone who has been in and out of the SCA for over 20 years now, I feel that I bring a certain perspective that understands being both new and experienced, and that this is very helpful in interacting with newer folks.

Yours in Service,
Tabytha Morgan
