Tir Righ

Just a short note to say that I appreciate the populace images in the Tir Righ library. Thanks to all who sent in their photos! Thanks to those who started the idea and those who maintain the page(s)!

I like being able to look up a name so I can put a face to these faceless emails...

Eisenmarche Shire Banquet and Champions Tournament

  • If you can't find a link on the Eisenmarche page, you may need to create event page

These pictures are exclusively of the Heavy Bear Pit Tourney. Sorry, it is all the battery I had in my camera. I have identified the people I knew, but if you aren't named or would like a picture with you in it, removed please let me know.

The fighting was great! Congratulations to Sir Owain who emerged victorious. Also Congratulations to Petro (sp?) who was squired to Viscount Einar in a very humorous ceremony.

The feast was awesome! The quantity of food was enormous! Huge pat on the back to the feast team!

Also a huge thank-you to HLS Desiree, the autocrat for all her work. I hope she is resting well today.

People Pages for Royalty

Need to create Category:People pages for all royalty.

  1. Edit each royal couple page and change Ivar the Black and Asney Grimolfrsdottir into Ivar the Black and Asney Grimolfrsdottir
  2. Add the Category:People tag to their individual page
  3. Add something like "Ivar was the thirteenth prince of Avacal" to Ivar's page, as well as link to his OP entry and any other noteworthy comments (peerages, current activities or interests, etc). Photos and their arms would be good too.

  • Add to 40YC page under "Event Highlights"

Greetings all,

 I wish to express my thanks and gratitude to all those who helped to make youth activities a success at the 40 Year Celebration.
  
 First off, to our marvelous instructors/sponsors- HL Fionnghuala inghean mhic Oitir, Alwynd McBride, Lady May de Blatha An Oir, Godith of Goosefoot Mead, HL Saikhan Naranaimorin, HL Angharad ver' Reynulf, Lady Mabel de Wymburn, Eithne of Blatha An Oir and Isabella of Wallingford,. From a medieval figure making class to a visit to meet the horses to making clay buttons, the children had a wide base of unique opportunities. My thanks to these busy ladies for their time and efforts.
  
 Next, to those who planned on volunteering... and those who simply stepped forward to help as needs arrived. Seirid, Tarna and Caidwen are ever the constant support without whom I could not function. And now to my real heroes- the parents who jumped in when hands grew short. Your assistance was invaluable- I really don't know what I would have done without you. To Countess Caia Snowden, Celeste Direwolf, Nancy Quade... and the many, many others who lent a hand, you have my sincerest gratitude.
  
 The Keep provided many wonderful activities at their "Festival of Fools." By all reports, a fantastic time was held by all.
  
 I apologize if I have inadvertently forgotten a name but your service and willingness to help the young ones amongst us shall never be forgotten.
  
 Finally, thanks to the Shire of Fire Mountain Keep, the Barony of Glymm Mere, and the fine autocrat, Countess Sineidin. It was a pleasure to serve with you.
  
 In Service,
  
 Lady Una Glamdottir
 40 Year Pied Piper

40YC Memories

I was there the final weekend and must say that it was a blast! I was camped over between the equestrian arena and the court pavilion. During court on Saturday it was really cool hearing cheers from the pavilion echo off the mountainside behind us before the next cheer started.

Miranda

The (attendance) numbers I got from folks who were working around the gate was just over 2K.

Anne

--

What a fabulous event it was! The site is absolutely gorgeous and *huge* - plenty of room for whatever sort of expansion in the future. The water is in and tastes fine. The Great Hall was hopping, the mead and ale flowing, the food tasty. There were loads of merchants, a really good selection of wares. (I'll never forget my first taste of pickled herring sushi - heh!) The children seemed well occupied and happy (albeit the pipers were exhausted - seems something more should be done to help them, yes). The first couple of days were a bit wet and chilly, but there's unfortunately nothing Baron Emiel can do about that... yet.  :)

Thank you to everybody who helped make this happen! I can't wait for Autumnwar!  :)
