(Mairghread) via text, “thank you to everyone who made Bellringers a success! We have a royal baker, Bonnie! My next planned events are Bardic and Mudthaw. On a personal note my mom was diagnosed 3 weeks ago with cancer, so I beg your patience as my family negotiates our new normal through the
obstacles of life-altering surgeries, final diagnosis, and chemo and radiation schedules. The next few weeks are going to be very hard and chaotic till we settle. So thanks in advance.”

Mistress of the List: (Brigit) via Email, “My apologies for not being able to attend this month’s meeting. I am recovering from an automobile accident and was in too much pain to travel today. If anyone needs to renew their Armored Combat or Period Fencing authorization, or your Auth card(s) need replacing please let me know. All authorizations and re-auths require the waiver on the form to be signed before submitting even if you hold a current membership card.. All authorizations are valid for 4 years and expire on your birthday of that 4th year. I have agreed to act as MoL for SRWC. I will be asking around for additional help and if anyone is interested in learning the MoL’s system please feel free to ask. See ya next month.”

Captain of Archers: (Elizabeth) No archery activity to report, hiatus until Spring.

Fencing Marshal: (Ciaran) via Facebook, “Hey we aren’t going to be able to make it to the business meeting tonight. Practice is still going and we’re slowly building up more people (our average is up to 6 now) and we have the fabric for the tunics at much lower than budgeted for. I’ll bring the receipt to the next meeting. If anyone is interested, we are going to host an unofficial crafty day for making the tunics as well as stuffed animals for the toy box that will be at our house on March 21. I think that’s everything to report.”

Thrown Weapons Marshal: (Ichabod) Big meeting at Birka, I was unable to attend. Deputy (Gilbert) is available to take over in June.
