[Cynnabar] BoC Meeting Minutes for 11/12/12 meeting

[Cynnabar Seneschal]

Meeting minutes are back on their regularly scheduled time
last minute on a
Sunday night! J

 

Last week’s meeting was run by our illustrious deputy seneschal Mistress
Claire. She sent me her hand written notes to transcribe, to which a cat
managed to spill an entire glass of juice all over them. So if some of the
notes below are a bit off, I apologize in advance. 

 

18 sad and despondent (due to their regular +3 seneschal of awesomeness was
note there) people were in attendance. Fortunately, we have a +5 deputy
seneschal of super-coolness to make up the difference, so sad and despondent
became happy.

 

On to the report

Old Business

 

Fixing loaner leg armor (placeholder only, not under active discussion) – 

 

New Business

 

Genoveva – making set of shields of approved heraldry to be used to decorate
events/demos. There was a discussion about the use of heraldry if person
wasn’t at the demo/event. (editor’s note: there was no notation on the
results of that discussion. This would be a budget line item request for up
to $150. This is the first discussion of our 3 discussion/approval process.
This would be for making 40 shields out of lightweight plywood (instead of
fabric). Wood is cheaper, easier to make, use and will last a lot longer
than fabric. Shields would be property of the Barony and stored with the
rest of the Baronial stuff. Individuals can by a second copy of their own
devices then pay $3.
