*A side note from the Chronicler*…Sometimes we get a lot of change over all
at once. We have an amazing barony with wonderful and talented people – *if
you are interested in any of the positions that are vacant or in need
*– *please
contact the Seneschal and Their Excellencies. *
*Deputies!* An office can not have too many deputies; when His Excellency
was Chief Archer – I believe he had 8 deputies, maybe even more. This is a
great opportunity to learn at your own pace – PLUS it’s a lot of fun! If
there is an office that interests you – please contact that Officer, thank
you.
*Exchequer Report – Sara*
Not much to report right now, we have money in the bank. If you are
interested in the Exchequer Office, Sara is looking for a deputy and it is
a great time to learn.

*** Office seeking applicants for Chief Archer*
The Chief Archer position is still open.
Archery is still happening. I made up about 5 more targets, we’ll need to
get more made. We could use solid pieces of corrugated cardboard about 26”
x 26-28”. I have about 20-25 more, with about 95 more target faces…
Final medallion counts are in for last season, and Wyewood took 28 out of
87 medallions (32%). We plan to hand them out in court at Feast of St.
Bubba.
We’re having an extra practice on New Year’s Day, weather permitting.

to have as many Wyewoodians as possible. His elevation will be on Saturday.

Warder Martyn’s vigil to please contact/check with her.
*Ursulmas *
January 22nd – 24th - Big Demo Event
*Do you want to run an event?*
The Barony needs 3 events per year. At this time we have only one.
If you have questions or interested – please don’t hesitate. Being an
event steward can be a lot of fun.
1) Feast on the 9th of February.
2) *tentatively* August 10th, we have a date saved for Champions but
no bid and no event steward but now moving to September 7th.
3) There are a couple of ideas floating around for day events. Which
more the merrier! We don’t have to limit to 3 events 😊
4) Also, 12th night 2021, Lady Liadain spoke as a past Event
Steward. This
is a great money maker event – keeps money in our coffers for about 3 years.
During the event planning there will be busy times then down times, then
busy times but it is a great event to run.
