Moot Minutes
17 May 2005
Seneschal:
- The new Tournaments Illuminated is out and has lots of really useful and interesting articles this time.
- Next Tuesday is largesse night at Sashatec's house. You can come over as early as 1 p.m.! We'll be working on falcon tabards. Bring your sewing machines and irons/ironing boards. Bring something for supper and we'll have a great sewing night!
- Looks promising that Cattle Raids may regain its protected status next year. The incoming Crown is assisting with this.
- Financial Committee will meet immediately following Moot this evening.
Treasurer:
- Still accepting donations for the Lilies Tent.
Pursuivant:
- Currently working on the challenge to be given by the Mag Mor fighters enmass at the Lilies Pas. If you have good ideas about wording, give Morag a call.
- Looking for a deputy. Want to start training now so the deputy has a solid year of experience before taking over the herald position for the barony.
Marshall:
- Not much response yet from the movie slide recruitment campaign, but still good P.R.
- Will be adding new pennons and signs to the fighter practice set up in the park.
Chronicler:
- Deadline for the June Runestaffs is 6:00 p.m. May 27. Vasilla was duly reminded again. :-)
- For those of you going to Lilies, consider writing an article for the July issue about something that happened at Lilies.
Minister of Arts & Sciences:
- Looking for a deputy that Jane can train over the next year or so. Call Jane for details.
Demo Coordinator:
- James Arthur Vineyard Ren Faire Demo: Set-up on Friday will begin around 4 p.m. Folks should be ready to entertain the faire go-ers no later than 11 a.m. on Saturday. Katalina has a map of the layout of the faire so check with her before pitching a tent or setting up a demo. There is still some room for Arts & Sciences. Archery volunteers are needed - please contact Katalina if you can help. We'll need a sunshade for the fighters and one for the baronial presence. Please sign up for food donations! Fighting demos will be at 1, 3 and 5 with Music on the alternate hours (2, 4 and 6). We have 18 paid vendors!
Baronage:
- Lilies Pas: We will have the Archery Pas on the first Sunday from 1 to 3 (Baron Jon was kind enough to bump the Huscarl tourney for us!). The Fighting Pas will be Friday from 10 to noon. Both times, we will process for the Procession of Helms. Need to get together ahead of time to work out marching order, songs, etc. Timing will be announced soon.
- Lilies Pillow Fight: Will be having the official pillow fight at 9 on Friday. Ladies, bring your heraldic pillows/fluffy weapons and be prepared for much fun. Gentlemen, feel free to come watch and offer prizes.
- Lilies Mag Mor Party: to be held Thursday night in Mag Mor Proper so be aware of this when you place your tent for the week. Leofwyna still needs help with food and Callaghan still needs help with beverages.
- JAV: This is not an SCA event! This is theater. For purposes of theater, Mikhail & Vasilla will be called "King and Queen of Mag Mor". Use as much schtick as you can muster. Play it up. Fighters-boast a lot! Artisans, feel free to take on a character.
Scribes:
- Isabeau and Carlos have been designated as Calien and Callaghan's personal scribes for Their tenure. Carlos will be taking over Scribes Guild. Sabi will remain as liaison for Kingdom scrolls and contacts.
- Scribes will be working on creating new scrolls for Calien and Callaghan. The next meeting will be Thursday, May 26.
Music:
- No rehearsal this week...we're ready for JAV!
Incoming Baronage:
- Cattle Raids will be August 26-28 this year. We need an event steward ASAP! Mews flyer for July must be submitted by May 25. Mikhail has offered to do feast, Archery is taken care of, JM is handling fighting, and Vasilla has offered to do anything but feast. Any takers need to get bids in right away.
- Lilies: Let Callaghan know if you'll be providing home brew what that home brew is. Also, if you are donating store boughten beverages, let him know what and how much of what it will be. This way he knows what to provide to flesh out the Tavern for the Mag Mor party. Also, he is accepting donations for non-alcoholic beverages.
- Fall Coronation 2006: Mag Mor must submit a bid for this. We have until May 2006 to prepare it. Just something to think about.
Miscellaneous:
- June 7 will be the next Moot and the last one before Lilies.
- May 31 is the Mag Mor Revel to be held at St. Mark's on Campus at 7:30 p.m. Pizza, beer and movies! It's on the calendar at www.magmor.net.
- Troll Schedule for Lilies: we have the 2p.m. to midnight shift. We still need 2 people for the 2-4 shift. Everytime you sit a troll shift, you're name gets put in for a raffle for a cool prize!
- Lilies Mag Mor Party: Leofwyna has a wish list of items if you want to contribute, but don't know what to make.
