Empty Officer Positions:
We are in need of a Chronicler as well as a Deputy Seneschal (to take over
for Bjarki when he has to step down)
Please contact Bjarki or Their Excellencies if you are interested.

Donation Policy:
A waiver will be created and implemented to be used when members wish to
loan items to the Barony.  Due to the group's liability, items cannot be
guaranteed not to be lost or damaged.  There may be special exceptions to
this rule which could be discussed on an individual basis.

Celtic Fest (July 9th)
We plan to make an appearance at this year's Celtic Festival. If you are
able to attend, please let me know as soon as possible.  We really would
like to have people who can demonstrate crafts/activities - especially if
there can be a public hands-on component to this.  Mistress Claire has also
graciously offered to hold the after-revel!

Meeting Locations:
People felt that the Tap Room was a good location in terms of being able to
hear one another, but that safety might be a concern.  Jerry has also
mentioned that he might be able to get a small banquet room at Weber's for
our use, and will let us know.
Next week we are at Borders again!

New Business: None

My apologies for any missing information or any needed corrections!!

Yours,
Giovanna
