Message-ID: Greetings to all! I have heard interests for a burn-it-eat it Pennsic pity party and I also wanted to have a full day A&S to give people time to actually get something started, so here it goes: Saturday 8th August: Scribal day, starting around 2pm, there will be several stations set up, for people to be able to look up extant examples, to sketch, to try different borders etc. There will also be a last chance to see the book Master RanthulfR has finished (a 14th century psalter in a 15th century binding), before it goes of to the client. Feel free to bring your own projects and materials, and if people are interested, we can also make some paint. There will be slopes available to try too. If you never have tried calligraphy or illuminations before, this is a good day to come by and play. If you have, well, this is a good day to come by an play regardless, and to share scribal stories :) There will be scribal suitable snacks available, and when we drag in to the evening, we will order pizza (or whip something up in the kitchen, depending on what people are feeling for to eat). Sunday 9th August: from 5 pm. Since we are not at Pennsic, but still love to have a bonfire, we thought we would have a "eat -it-burn-it party" We have a huge pile of wood, and a pile of smores ingredients, so please save us from having Hershey's in the house! Pot luck dinner, and dig out those weird food stuffs people keep giving you, that you try once and then get stuck in the back of the freezer, that needs to be finished off. The gazebo will be screened in, so we will be saved from the mosquitoes. Please bring stories and songs to share around the fire. Where will these events take place? At 2101 South circle drive, Ann Arbor. Please email me if you need directions, a ride or get lost on the way. Phone is 734 663 0954. Please let me know with a short email or Facebook message if you are planning to come, and to which event you are coming, so that I may plan accordingly :) Best regards, Arina de Traentorp, Cynnabar MOAS -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Two questions left from Pennsic: 1. I took basket weaving with Lady Kathrynn , but I apparently copied her email address incorrectly. Can someone send me the correct address? 2. I missed the source for the fascinating session on 50 questions about chivalry. Could someone help me find the medieval source?

Some of you were veterans of the Cynnabar camp, while others were new to our Baronial gathering, but that did not change the impact that each person had on Us. So take a moment to think back on a great memory from this year and ask yourself, "What will I do next year to top that."

As is tradition we will hold our annual winter get together, Wassail!* We are looking for people to put together bids for this event. Why am I getting the information out this early? Two reasons: 1) It is NEVER too early to plan an event. 2) We want to encourage anyone who has never run an event but is interested in doing so to take some time and think about it, ask questions, and decide if this is right for them. Wassail*, being a small event, is a good one to cut your teeth on. No event is "easy" or only takes one person, but some are more suited for newer people. So please consider if this is right for you and if you have any questions, please feel free to email myself or any of our previous event stewards.

Aethelmarc vs. Middle & East Equipment moved into the new Cynnabar storage trailer (near Archery Range) Birke die Jaegerin was awarded a Dragon?s Tooth on the field. Birke herself told Kay: ?I got the Dragon's Tooth for having one of the loudest voices on the melee field, screaming at our fighters to go where they were needed on our line. :) For being a very loud, effective, noticeable commander.? Well Done, Birke! 25 veteran Cynnabar campers did not come, but lots of first time campers did. Young Quintonius (Jensen) learned the Cynnabar Fight song on his modern trumpet and played for marches to battle. Quintonius and Gavriil also went to the camps of people who were summoned to Cynnabar Court and with long trumpet and banner called them to attend the Baronial Court. The King of the Middle peered out to see what was happening in his courtyard. There are pictures. Demo Report from Aeffe Torsdottir: *Literary Summer - Merry Adventures of Robin Hood*, Historic Crossroads Village (Shire of Stormvale) Cynnabar members Godaeth, Aeffe, and Dillon participated with members of Stormvale, Roaring Wastes, and Fearann na Criche to portray life in the time of the legendary Robin Hood. Fiber arts, carving, scribal, archery equipment and fancy shooting were displayed and discussed. Other attractions included heavy fighting, tanning, chain mail, and garb items to try on. Ligessac d'Isigny said: ?Many thanks to Ladies Godaeth, Aeffe and Aemiliana and Forester Dillon for helping at our Demo. They were very pleased to have us, and would love to have us back in the future.? *Words from Their Excellencies Ermenrich and Kasha of Cynnabar:* *Fall Revel* needs to get organized. *Grey has a proposal* for changes to the Closing of the Range, and will develop it. Since October 25 is the 600 th anniversary of the Battle of Agincourt do we want to combine that theme with the Closing? Expenses are usually $250. $125 for Privy (never collected by host) plus misc. expenses. Shall Meat be provided? Or rent a tent? Please discuss and offer ideas and advice. All Artists: *A new supply of Tower?s Light badges* is needed. Any artisan interested in making a new design may show it to the Baron and Baroness if you wish input.

Viktoria: The Cynnabar Youth Pages are up on the Cynnabar Web Site Viktoria and Ilona are discussing a Pages School activity for Cynnabar young people. Based on the merit badge methods of the Gil Scouts it would offer an online guide to the process and some web based resources for kids of all ages to study new activities at home at their own pace, with parental guidance, and demonstrate their work in Arts or Martial activities at events. This would provide a structure for learning and demonstrating success that could be adapted to any SCA activity. People to help draft badge requirements or discuss the idea are welcome to contact Ilona at ilonwud at yahoo.com (You may recall Ilona/ Heidi as active until about 8 years ago. She, her husband Russ, and their children are rejoining us.) Luisa attended Equestrian Marshall meeting at Pennsic. There are currently no Equestrian marshalls in Pentemere. She is hoping to identify sites that could have equestrian activity and to start the process to become a marshall. Grey reports he has a contact for her. SCA 50 is going to have lots of Equestrian activities. They are encouraging participation to the point of possibly offering free stabling on site. Please pass this on for any equestrians you know; they will want to check the 50 Year website for news. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I don't suppose it would be a private room, but I've been told that in the evenings it's pretty quiet. And there is wine... I'd like to propose that location, but I'm open to changing the meeting day to something that works for everyone.

This is just around the corner (essentially) from Classic Cup. They have a small area that looks like it can be reserved. She and I looked at that spot and both said "Hey, that'd be a great place for our meetings!" It's about half the size of the CC meeting space -- but there are actually no walls, so if we 'spill' over into the other seating area when we have more people that might work. Most nights it should fit the number of people we have.? The other?recommendation for it is -- well, PIE. It might be worth a try to reserve once and see if it works?? I would second Midair's comments about keeping things on Mondays for a couple of reasons. We have many other things that fall on other days of the week so changing this would change all of that too. And, I think that consistency is a very, very important thing when it comes to newcomers. In addition, since we are looking a lot of times at restaurants, most are receptive to reservations of this sort on Mondays because they are slower.?

Based on what I've heard in the past from Cynnabar members, the ideal site offers: - Availability on Monday evenings from 7:00-9:00 pm - Space for up to 25 people to sit together - No charge (or low cost) for us to use - Quiet atmosphere where everyone can hear - Convenient parking - Central location in Cynnabar - Food and drink (for those who otherwise don't have a chance to eat after work) - No pressure on anyone to spend money If I've missed anything, feel free to add it.

I know that in the past, people have disliked the parking options on Central Campus, but it is a possible option. The parking might be more convenient on North Campus, too. Meeting at one of the University's Unions would also provide us a quiet space with access to food (but no pressure to buy).

I personally thought there were great and could cover a variety of topics. I am not personally comfortable with the food locations - often people feel obligated to purchase food, but don't necessarily want to or have money too..... Just my opinion!

That said, part of the reason we have had free meeting spaces is because at restaurants or bookstores, we are expected to spend money while we are there. My understanding is that our deal with the Classic Cup Cafe was that a certain percentage of meeting attendees are expected to purchase food. (I've never seen the details of this written down though.) I *hate *making people feel as though they have to buy something in order to attend our meeting. On the other hand, if we do not meet somewhere where attendees are expected to spend money, we may have to pay to use the location. After all, venues do have to make money. So unless we can find that Perfectly Ideal Space, we will probably have to choose one or the other of these options.

We currently use the Michigan Union for the mass meeting and fight practices, and the League for dance practices. Dance practices were held in Pierpont Commons, on North Campus, until Pierpont had a ton of construction all last summer and we moved it to the League. I imagine that construction was finished last fall. We could use Pierpont Commons for meeting spaces throughout the entire year. Pierpont Commons, being smaller than the Union and the League, only allows clubs to register rooms out as far in advance as the clubs are registered (the Union and the League lets us do this over a year in advance, which I would do to make sure we got the prime locations we wanted). This just means that Hattie (our current room register person) would have to make sure to re-register the student club as early as possible during the summer months, so that we could try and get room space past September 30 (when student clubs end if they aren't re-registered every year). As long as I did this early enough in the summer, I registered dance practice without much problem. The website where one checks room space changed (I just checked), and I can no longer access it (it's no longer open to the public, how annoying), so I have no idea if there is Monday evening space available starting next month. But it may be a good option going forward in the future, and Hattie could find out what availability there is with a quick phone call. Parking is usually the issue cited when wondering about using University rooms. There is a lot available within a couple blocks walk to Pierpont Commons that is only enforced until 5 pm: Lot NC43 on the map ( http://pts.umich.edu/maps/north_medical.pdf). Here is the website of enforcement, if you're curious about when the other lots are enforced: http://pts.umich.edu/parking/enforcement-nc.php. For example, the lot a little closer to Pierpont, NC27, is enforced until 8 pm and wouldn't suit our purposes. NC43 is a pretty short walk, though, and it would mean a meeting place that fits most other criteria listed. - *Availability on Monday evenings from 7:00-9:00 pm*: might not be available this semester (if already booked), but could be arranged for future semesters. Hattie needs to call and ask. The semester hasn't started, so maybe there's space for us still. - *Space for up to 25 people to sit together*: Yes - *No charge (or low cost) for us to use*: Yes - as long as we keep the student club going, which is why Festifall (and Northfest... aren't we also doing Northfest???) is so important! - *Quiet atmosphere where everyone can hear:* Yes - *Convenient parking:* Fairly close by for free - *Central location in Cynnabar:* Yes - *Food and drink (for those who otherwise don't have a chance to eat after work):* No. Or, at least, not openly. We're officially not allowed to bring in outside food and drink, because the University likes to make people use their catering, which costs money. - *No pressure on anyone to spend money:* Yes I support going back to meeting on campus, as soon as we can get the room space available. It's nice not to have the pressure to spend money, and being on campus means we have more flexibility with the room space to hold workshops and whatnot that don't fit well in a restaurant. It's also quiet. But I also don't go to many meetings myself, so others' opinions should probably hold more weight than my own. Hattie just emailed me a couple days ago that she was re-registering the club, which I imagine went smoothly (it's not hard, as long as you have the 10 students and 3 authorized signers already confirmed). She'll have to make a phone call about current Monday evening availability of rooms, and/or log into the online system to find that out. (Hattie: Here's the website with contact info and room info about reserving rooms at Pierpont Commons: http://uunions.umich.edu/pierpont/meeting/events). That's what I know. Feel free to ask me any questions about concerns I didn't cover. ~Birke 4 years of UM Room Reserving Experience :) On Wed, Aug 12, 2015 at 1:24 PM, Malachy von Ulm via Barony < barony at cynnabar.org> wrote: > On Wed, Aug 12, 2015 at 12:41:24PM -0400, Johannes Robbertszoon via Barony > wrote: > > We seem to be getting further from Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti.

Our attendance while we had meetings there was very very low. (Generally about 5-8 people.) The parking around there is just terrible.

I've never had a problem grabbing food from the cafeteria or Panda Express or whatever and eating it in various rooms around the building, but if we are thinking about having meetings there, we could check on what the rules are. Did we get in trouble in the Michigan League for people grabbing Taco Bell in the basement and bringing it upstairs?

They specifically state: "Groups are not permitted to bring their own food or beverage into University Unions facilities." That means that food purchased on site should be fine. And yes, there are plenty of food options available in Pierpont Commons - Panda Express, Quiznos, a sushi place, a cafe with coffee products and a small deli... (assuming the food option didn't change in the 1.5 years since I've been there). Good point, Your Excellency.

Perhaps just check out availability of the rooms for now, on Mondays from 7-9 pm, to see when it's possible to start meetings there, if people decide we should try it. NC43 is the number of the free evening parking lot closest to Pierpont Commons, not a room. Looking at the rooms in Pierpont (everyone can look at their specs easily here: http://uunions.umich.edu/pierpont/rooms/639) that are available for student use free of charge and are about the right size: -* Boulevard Room, North East Room, and South East Room*: all of really nice size for meetings plus activities (~900 sq feet). All have 10 ft ceilings (good for martial demonstrations) and are on the upper floor, so can probably use them interchangeably if Mondays aren't all free at one of them. - *Center Room:* a little smaller (20x29), but still a fine size for meetings - *Corner Room:* 13 x 14: probably too small - *Executive Suite:* not exactly a room, but an alcove... might work okay, though. -* East Room*: costs us money - nope! So I would look into the availability in the Boulevard Room, NE Room, or SE Room (pick one randomly, or ask which one has the most availability on Mondays 7-9 pm). If none of those are free, check the Center Room. Then maybe the Executive Suite or Corner Room, but maybe not. Also, we don't have meetings the first Monday of every month - just the others. First Monday is Herald's Night. Feel free to chime in if anyone has other ideas. ~Birke On Wed, Aug 12, 2015 at 3:46 PM, Hattie Knapp wrote: > So the good news is that we're all set and registered.

I don't know if it's available on Mondays or if it's free, but probably worth looking into. And as far as places to be pressured to buy something, in this crowd it's probably as annoying as Borders. -Jadzia P.S. I'd also be thrilled with Pierpont.

I think this is a little premature for someone to be taking the reigns on this and reserving rooms. What about the people who don't get email? Shouldn't they have a chance to voice their opinion?? Does this fall under the 3 meeting rule? I thought we had to put this to a vote? We still have a couple more meetings at the Classic Cup Cafe where we can discuss this face to face. I can guarantee that Uillec will not troll through 30 or 40 emails to read all of this, and I am sure he is not alone. Just my thoughts, I will not plan to attend any meetings in downtown Ann Arbor or on the U of M campus other than for officer reports unless my service in immediately required. The parking is terrible and for those of you who say "just park at____ and walk", is there handicap parking readily available? Fight practice at the Union is a different story because it happens on a Sunday afternoon. I for one like the option of having "food/pie" available because I don't get out of work until 6pm or later and don't get a chance to eat.

URL: From barony at cynnabar.org Sat Aug 15 15:37:56 2015 From: barony at cynnabar.org (Matt Lagemann via Barony) Date: Sat, 15 Aug 2015 11:37:56 -0400 Subject: [Cynnabar] Meeting Location In-Reply-To: References: <20150812172409.GA31297@pfrc.org> Message-ID: Lady Ilse, My apologies if it seemed like this issue was being railraoded. The difficulty is that we don't have three meetings to decide. Since we lose our space at the beginning of September at the very best we have two meetings, and that is only if someone brings a proposed meeting place up. No one is deciding anything yet, just talking things out. As far as I am aware no official changes have been made and I apologize if that was how things were viewed. The idea behind putting the meeting location out on email was because some people who do not attend meetings because of its current time and place, I felt, also deserved a chance to voice their opinions AND time is not on our side in deciding this at meetings. It should be noted that the location in question is on North Campus,which does not have nearly the parking issues that Central Campus does and there are handicapped spots. There is also food served there as well for those that would like a meal. It also allows people to use mass transportation to get to meetings. At the very least it gives us a place we KNOW we can meetings in September, even if that is only while a better location is sought. Once again, NOTHING is decided, but reserving rooms now allows us to have them if we want them. If we make a different decision we can always cancel the reservations. Has anyone called Pie Co to see if we can meet there?

Thursday, September 24th, 6:30 - 9 pm, in the Anderson Rooms in the Union (same place as fighter practice will be in October). Set up as a Classroom with 2 for 40, which I think means there are twenty tables and forty chairs. For those who have access to the room reservation documents (I'm not sending them out Barony-wide, as they involve our shortcodes), it's part of the Fall 2015 Fight Practice reservation, because it's the same building in the same semester. ~Birke On Tue, Aug 25, 2015 at 7:52 PM, Cynnabar Seneschal via Barony < barony at cynnabar.org> wrote: > 20150824 Barony of Cynnabar 7:00PM > > Location: Classic Cup Caf? 4389 Jackson Rd Ann Arbor, MI 48103-1831. *LAST > TIME!* > > *Activity, Event & Demo Reports* > > Let?s include everything we are doing in the Society in these reports; not > just events and travel! > > ?

URL: From barony at cynnabar.org Wed Aug 26 01:11:32 2015 From: barony at cynnabar.org (Kell Carnahan via Barony) Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2015 21:11:32 -0400 Subject: [Cynnabar] BOC Meeting Minutes 8-24-2015 In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: *Questions:* *Northfest: *Also, are we doing both Festifall and Northfest? I don't see dates for Northfest being given out anywhere, and I thought we'd signed up to do both. (Not that my new job allows me the freedom to help... but it needs to be advertised.) *Closing of the Range:* I thought this was happening on Saturday? If it is on Sunday, October 25th - that conflicts with the Cynnabar Throwdown, where us rapier fighters ask far-off fighters to come to our practice and Roaring Wastes fighters move their practice to ours. Will I be able to advertise the location of Dillon's property on Facebook and email so people know where the Throwdown is occurring? This is concerning to me, that we wouldn't be able to advertise the location that conflicts with us asking people to visit us. Roaring Wastes needs to able to tell their fighters where to go, and I do, too. That would be very difficult to do entirely by private messages.
