Additional Officer Reports
Coronet’s Report – Baron Muin maqq Minain
Greetings the Peoples of the Barony, Our neighbors and Our Allies;
It is a wonder to see the flowering of the world around us, and know that the warmth of the Sun is just around the corner!
Please take some time to greet the natural world and spend some time acclimating to warmer weather. Going out in garb at outdoor events when you’re still in ‘Winter Mode” can be… distressing.
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!
Remember the Olio!
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 WotS3!
Be well;
Muin,
Baron of Bhakail
Seneschal’s Report – Máistir Mael Eoin mac Echuidh
Following last month’s Baronial polling, we are closing the call for Letters of Intent for Baron(ess) and/or Baron(ess) of Bhakail. Thank you to all who have considered throwing in for the role and especially those who have done so. Cross your fingers that Kingdom and Society do their parts in a timely manner and we can plan for Investiture this coming December!
We will be formally announcing the vacancy for Seneschal this month to allow for letters to be submitted, but if you’ve been thinking about it, I’ve been mentioning it for a bit…so far, there’s one letter in for the role and we’ve been working on what goes into the role, what changes might be good to bring up, etc. I’m looking forward to seeing what is to come with new energy and perspectives involved!
Looking forward to Waking of the Salamander and everything else coming up through the Summer! If you have any interest in helping with various events, especially with Yule hopefully being the Investiture of our next Baronial Coronet(s), keep an eye out for announcements or reach out and we’ll get you in touch with appropriate folk 🙂
Chamberlain – Baroness Ysmay de Lynn
Margarette, Mikael and I went through the youth items and got rid of 5 tubs of material that was old, not appropriate (like glitter and non-medieval themed objects, or would take too much work to make usable at this time. We organized the remaining items into boxes that will be easy to grab for events, including a box of kid games. We were able to clear out two sections of the closets.
Bailiwick of Ivyeinrust – Emery de Champagne
The Bailiwick of Ivyeinrust had our business meeting on April 8. We discussed our progress on Known World.
Due to previous concern, unfortunately we must announce that no persons may harbor jackalopes or dragons. Griffins will be permitted, however, only as a registered service-creature.
