Thrown Weapons and Archery Championships
These baronial championship competitions are scheduled for this Sunday, September 15 at the normal venue and times for thrown weapons and archery practices. See the baronial calendar or contact Mikael at 92117@members.eastkingdom.org for directions. The populace is invited to attend, although parking is limited.
Champions and Commons
The event will be held on September 29. A rummage sale will be held from the baronial gold key (loaner garb). More details at https://www.eastkingdom.org/event-details/?eid=4325.
Yule Bid
No bid has been submitted to date. Martyn reported that a bid is forthcoming. The event needs to be on the calendar asap to allow the royals to decide if it will be a royal progress. A vote was held to move forward with adding Yule to the East Kingdom event calendar now, even without a bid in hand.

Timely Submission of Bids for Events
