Thank you to everyone who came early for the Sports Challenge today. Airing date is Tuesday, April 20, during the 6:00 pm newscast. Who will be able to tape this? Mikhail and Vasilla will need a copy but they don't have local channels so they can't tape it themselves.

James Arthur Vineyards - May 22nd. We'll need demonstration volunteers. The brochures are almost ready.

Events:

Spring Fling - Lonely Tower is having their baronial archery championship so lots of shoots to choose from at this event.

Miscellaneous:

Raina - report is in, JAV reported, 10/11 Sports Challenge is done - great job!

Lilies Pillow Fight Challenge - HE Winnifred of Coeur d'Ennui has issued a challenge to HE Vasilla. Vasilla is now raising an army of stalwart women who are willing and able to swing a pillow in an good, ol' fashioned pillow fight on the battlefield of Lilies immediately prior to our Wednesday morning Pas. Chocolates and champagne have been mentioned by her challenger and there will be prizes for best heraldic display, best death, most chivalry shown, etc. Please let Vasilla know if you are able to join her in this delightful silliness. (Rules: 2 armies, timed battle, no feather or buckwheat filled pillows).

Directories will be available to the Troll table at Herd Master for $2 each. Make sure to pick up a copy or two.
