*Seneschal Report – Liadain*

Warder Martyn is our new Seneschal.  Thank you Lady Liadain for your
service to the Barony and Kingdom.  She will remain as deputy for 6 months.
Welcome Martyn to the Office!

*Other Offices seeking …*

Chief Archer
Rapier Marshal
Heavy Marshal



*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.

*Herald/Pursuivant Report – Alarich *
It has been a quiet month.  Did do some consulting but no formal
submissions.
Working on a seal for the Barony, would like input regarding design.

*Archery Report – Tymme*
*** 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.



January 19th, Having a TAM Class.

*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.
