We had one new contact since I took over the office last month, and that came via email through HL Gwen (our Seneschal). As we move to the park for fighter's practice and we get our "name" out there again, I hope that local interest in the SCA will increase. I will be working closely with the Kingdom Media Deputy over the next few months to work out the kinks in what we can and cannot put "out there" for people to see. .I have downloaded the "approved" flyer and will start putting them around town in April do plan to be present at practices once they are moved to the public are of the park again. If anyone has any ideas or is contacted regarding demos, please feel free to share. I'd love to have another day-long mini-event demo in the park like we did a couple of years ago as that generated a good deal of exposure for our group. I will be attending Ambergard's War In The Oasis this weekend and will collect the Gold Key boxes from HL Ysabella and Lord Rowland at that time. If anyone is interested in serving the barony in the office of Gold Key, please contact me. (submitted report)

Gold Key: Ysabella offered to take the office as she has the Gold Key any-way. :)

Pied Piper: Working on a couple projects for Springfest and Barons.

Greetings from Baron Sir Styrkarr Jarlskald and Baroness Dagrún Stjarna,

Our people have much to celebrate. March has seen a very successful King-dom Arts & Sciences competition superbly organized and executed by our

autocrats and our populace. Our people again proved their worth to the King and Queen – we swear we spent most of our time fielding compliments regard-ing the event! Marcia’s Ithra’s and movies were enjoyed by many, the fighters had fun in the park, and all were pleasantly surprised to have food available to

help sustain them during the day. Our barony should be especially honored (though not surprised) to have had Sir Dyon presenting in the finals of the

competition.

The King and Queen were pleased to honor our populace with Kingdom-level awards: to Ysabella and Roth, we say huzzah to their induction into the order of the Goutte de Sang. These were recognitions of worth we have been aware

of for some time.

We cannot say enough about how pleased we were to witness Sir Dyon’s ele-vation to the Order of the Laurel. Dyon’s qualities of leadership, martial skill, armoring and crafting prowess, and bureaucratic mastery (inside joke), have

coupled with an untiring love for the Barony of Wastekeep and the people in it to produce a real inspiration and hero of Wastekeep. Dyon represents the best of Wastekeep so please join us in a triple huzzah for our very own triple Peer.

War is soon to come to our area. It is time to call to arms all our fighters and supporters. The Hopping Phules War/Baroness War is just around the corner. We are hopeful that all our populace will attend to support your Baroness and her fighters. A few weeks later, we will be claiming our rightful taxes from

the College of Lyonsmarche at the Honor War. The lentils will be ours!

Stjarna would like to say a special thank you to all those who came to the last Page meeting. Our Page program is up and running. Our group includes 2

Paragraphs (Svanna and Bait), 5 Page Initiates (Rontu, Wiliam, Dagny, John, and Amber Rose) and the well respected Chapter (Eion). Look for these youth to ask them what they have learned or want to learn. The parents and sponsors worked hard at this months meeting preparing the favor’s for the youth. Pages, make sure you complete your badges so that when the time arrives to have the

15

MERCHANTS/Artisans welcomed.

CLASSES: Contact [email protected] to volunteer.

Please note this is a State Park so there are flushies and showers in the bath-rooms in the camp site restrooms.

Camp trailers or RVs - The C-loop does not have any RV hook-ups. If you

need/want electricity and water hook-ups these are available in the adjacent B-loop for an extra $10/night. Please contact the autocrat so that she can reserve a

spot. You will still need to goto the C-loop SCA gate to pay.

CABINS: rent for $45 per night each plus Idaho State Sales Tax. There is a $10 reservation fee. Call the McCall office at 208-630-5050 to make cabin

reservations at Hells Gate State Park in Lewiston. The one-room cabins sleep up to five on bunk beds and futons. Cook outside on the grill-covered fire pit. The cabins are powered, heated and air conditioned. Camp Cabin Amenities:

Units sleep five and are equipped with electricity, lockable windows and doors, heat and A/C. Central restrooms. Each cabin includes parking for one vehicle. Extra cars cost extra per night unless moved to the outer lot. There are 8 cabins at Hells Gate. The 4 cabins nearest Honor War are located between the B & C camp loop are Locust, Sycamore, Maple, and Pondersa (closest to the C-loop). The 3 cabins between the A & B loop are Sacajewea, Lewis and Clark (closest to the B-loop) and the furthest cabin in the middle of the A-loop is Tammany. If you end up in one of these distant cabins, then you will want to drive back

and forth between these distant cabins and Honor War in the C-loop.

PARKING: will be the same as last year. We would like to reserve parking near the C-loop out in the field for those with medical conditions, disabilities,

or smalls using car seats. We will provide a minivan at our SCA Gate that will shuttle vehicles to the outer non-fee parking lot once you have unloaded at

your camp site. If you really, really want your car close by then parking will be $5.32 extra per night ($5 + tax). Those arriving after dark on Friday night

can move their dragons out of camp on Saturday morning.

Honor War

Lyonsmarch

As the cold grip of winter slips from the lands, the College of Lyonsmarche, Lentil Capital of the Knowne World, inventories yet another year of excellent

crops. Yet jealous eyes from nearby lands take note. Baron Wastekeep plans to lead a military expedition to claim what He feels is rightfully His, including

back taxes and interest. Friendly forces, lead by Baron Wealdsmere, assemble from the north, east and south to free the College of invading tyranny. Even

Mighty King Vik and Gracious Queen Inga come from Their northern bastion to see this matter settled.

The friendly folks of Lyonsmarche invite you to the first An Tir Inlands camp-ing war of the season. Get your SCA year started off the Honor War way. The Crown is scheduled to attend. Saturday: The War, A&S Competition, artisans displaying crafts, Lentil Cooking Competition, Homebrew Competition, Pot-

luck Feast. Sunday morning: Rapier Tourney.

NEW: We will have a Target Archery Range open during the Honor War weekend. The range will be most graciously run by Daffyd de Doake who is the An Tir Kingdom Protector. He and Evrard de Valonge of Wyewood who

are both Sr TAM will be holding a Jr TAM class.

NEW: Lentil Cooking Competition - Best Period Lentils and Best Lentils Pe-riod.

Greetings unto the populace of Wastekeep from HL Gwenhwyvar De Acland. I have enjoyed serving this great Barony as seneschal over the last two years

and sadly it is time for me to pass the hat on to a new Seneschal. I will be step-ping down at Springfest and we will welcome our new Seneschal at that time. Our noble Baron and Baroness have requested that all interested parties send a letter of interest to me, either by email or snail mail (see below for addresses) or in person. Please have these turned in to me by the April Council meeting. The council will hold a major vote regarding the new Seneschal at our May

meeting. As required by the Baronial Minor Carte, this announcement will be published in the Word for at least one month prior to the vote at the May meet-

ing. I will also be posting reminders to the Wastekeep email list throughout the next couple of weeks.

The position of Seneschal is one that requires good communication skills, both verbal and written, an ability to view situations objectively, as well as the abil-ity to memorize large amounts of information; but mostly it requires that you are willing and able to always put the best interest of the Barony ahead of all else and to abide by and enforce both kingdom and mundane law as set forth

in the Seneschal's handbook. I encourage all interested parties to read the Seneschal's handbooks at both the Kingdom and Society levels, as well as other material available on the seneschal web page available on the An Tir

website.
