March 2024 Business Meeting Notes
Events
Waking of the Salamander
Waking of the Salamander is next month, April 19-21, and is all set to go. Stay tuned on the EK event webpage for any updates.
Commons Bid
Bids are being accepted.
Yule Bid
Yule will be a baronial investiture this year, and early bids are encouraged. Martyn de Halliwll is working on a bid, and if anyone is interested in helping with this bid please contact him at 181171@members.eastkingdom.org.
Old Business
Acquisition of Shade Tents and Tables for Events
Chana has priced out canvas, it would be approximately $200 for the material to make covers for the EZup frames that the barony owns. A vote was held in support of the purchase, which will be submitted to the finance committee for final approval.
Residency Variance for Baronial Election
A polling was held this month to see if there is support from the populace of Bhakail for Rowen Cloteworthy’s residency variance. This variance would be required from the Board of Directors in order for him to run for Bhakail Baron, with Sabine de Kerbriant as Baroness in the upcoming election.
The polling was closed during the meeting and the results were announced, with the Barony not in support of the variance.
So far there are two separate letters of intent for the Coronet that have been submitted, and the final deadline for letters to be submitted is by the April business meeting (April 9, 2024).
New Business
No new business.
Additional Officer Reports
Coronet’s Report – Baron Muin maqq Minain
Greetings the Peoples of the Barony, Our neighbors and Our Allies… and THAT guy;
Writing this to you all as I hobble about on one of my canes.
As time has bowled recklessly forward, We are gleefully awaiting the next great event We may attend!
I hope those wonderful people who have stepped up to run these events, and to work these events, know how precious their efforts are to the Barony of Bhakail, its people, and its currently hobbled Baron.
We cannot wait for the joys that are WotS III, and Commons!
Many contests lie ahead, and we cannot wait to see Our people come out to compete!
We also have many Local and Regional events, meetings, and practices to look forward to as the Year once again rolls ever onward, such as the Weekly Social, Various Fighting practices, and Scribal Classes & Gatherings, wherein many integral and exciting things happen!
I will reiterate how proud I was of all of the effort Bhakail put into the Largess Gifts that were given to Iron Bog at their Investiture, the Crown at Yule, and to Buckland Cross at its investiture! (Such a list!)
We would like to note the various other Largess Projects that are on Our Horizons this quickly dwindling year, anyone interested in participating, please (again…) see Lady Scolastica, or Myself!
Regardless of all else, We are hoping to see as many of you all at upcoming events both within AND without the bounds of Bhakail!
Remember:
Hydration.
Do not overexert.
Do not overextend!
Just Say No to Mortal Wombat Systems.
Help others when you see they need it.
In the course of the year to come, be calm, and patient.
With yourself AND others.
Looking forward to seeing all the happy faces at Tavern!
Be well,
And Peace be upon You in these Sweaty, Unreasonable Times;
Muin,
Baron of Bhakail
Knight Marshal – Aaron the Swift
As the weather is beginning to heat up, we are returning to the 48 Dickenson street site. Attendance is usually better at this location and we can fight as long as we’d like. As the weather could still turn sour, we are deciding location on an ad-hoc location. Please check or ask on the “Philadelphia SCA Fighter Practice Info” Facebook page for the most up to date information!
Chatelaine – Lady Chana Freidl the Maker
Nothing to report from the office of the Chatelaine.
