*Exchequer Report – Sara* (Sara Bonneville)

Looking for a deputy to train.  For our coffers, we have $18955.
December – March 31, we are down from last year due to snow.
Storage Rent is raising September 1st = $190 mo

Report is due July 31st to Kingdom





*A & S Report – Sofia* (Linda Hosea)
Slight backstep, there was a Culinary conversation held on the 29th of May,
discussion on how to proceed. Those in attendance (I think 5 formally, and
2 additional observers), agreed with a proposal to spend the next bit
investigating what foods and procedures are particular to our persona time
and place.  We will then use that to investigate differences.

Due to whatever, only Sofia showed up for A&S Support (had suspected as
much, but wanted to ensure no one else showed up without a welcome at
hand!).

HL Aurora has expanded the “sewing night” format to be “Sewing and Scribal
Project Night.” There were 15 there on the first evening, and 12 on the
second…  Her plan forward is 2nd and 4th Mondays. Also via HL Aurora, HE
Alessandra is planning scribal activities on the 1st and 3rd Mondays!  Wow!
In August.

There was no dance event in the Barony this month – most were in Texas for
a Known World Dance event…Sara says it was awesome!



Events/Activities to come:

FCS program for July: In addition to poll collections we will be looking
forward…HL Adrianna will be helping us “jump start” some pomp and pageantry
for Wyewood

Fiber/A&S Support night: Not in July…

Dance Classes:             July 18th – Thursday ** Please more Wyewoodians
come and dance!

Sewing and Scribal Nights:      2nd and 4th Mondays. Watch for posts.

Culinary:                      No formal/cooking activity until fall (maybe
something on July 14, will be announced…)

*June Faire Recap *over 3,000 people at the Modern Gate for June Faire.
Wyewoodians were also at the Archery field, Chatelaine's booth, and the
rapier field.
Our own Gallant, Don Donatello Asino was called in front of Their Majesties
and placed on vigil for entrance into the Order of Defense!
Not enough volunteers came forward to help at gate, so not enough to give
breaks/or gate helpers had to stay all day – but they where troopers and
efforts were appreciated.  Due to low gate helpers, next year we will pass
on Gate help for June Faire.
