• Judith the Confused – husband passed on Jan 2nd, memorial Feb 2nd at Commodore Barry Club from 2 pm until 6 pm if you would like to go

 

• Curia at Birka – lots of topics, one of which is a change that would say any time Royals hold court at a local event, EK gets a 20% cut of profit
  • If anyone has opinions to voice, please submit them to Muin or Rowen
  • Kingdom is losing money, they need to raise money somehow
  • Would make budgeting local events harder because local groups would lose profit

 

Old Business

 

• Pennsic
  • As last year, accepting people who camped with us last year first, then open to everyone; adding people to wait list already
  • We need a new camp exchequer – once funds are transferred, we will take a closer look at how much money we have, what we spend it on, if we need to change camp fees
    • Camp funds are used for: baronial sheet walls, fire wood, shower filters, lamp oil, ice, water, ice/water for youth fighters, etc
  • Rosie will take care of sheet wall throughout the year
