I am looking for a new Deputy Exchequer. The primary goal is to have a deputy person that can be added to our checking account so we have a third person that can sign checks. Lady Beth has been serving as our deputy wonderfully for a long time and is looking to have a well deserved rest. To that end, we need a new person to fill in this role. Whoever is willing to be our Deputy Exchequer does not necessarily mean they must be our next Exchequer. We really just need a new person who is willing and able to fulfill this role so we have that needed third person on our checking account. However, if you also want to use this position with an eye in learning the office, we can do that too! If you are interested, please contact myself (Finn) or our Seneschal (Hannah). Thank you for your attention. In service, -Finn Finnegan O'Flynn Exchequer, Barony of Cynnabar -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

As the Baronial officer pro tempore, I would like to share a message from the Kingdom Earl Marshal. "Good morning Midrealm! We have just over two weeks left before the initial Domesday deadline for our local marshals, which means there's just over two weeks left to finish reviewing participant rosters! This roster review at the local level is just the first step in our audit process, and your regional and kingdom deputies will be doing additional work using those rosters before our indefatigable Clerk of the Roster updates the authorization database and her office records. So, it is very important that these local rosters be done on time!! If you need assistance, PLEASE reach out to your regional marshal! If you are having trouble getting ahold of your regional, contact your activity's kingdom deputy! I want to thank everyone for their hard work on this project so far, and I also want to add how proud and impressed I am with our kingdom. I've heard no grumbling, and everywhere I look I see our people working together to keep the gears turning. Truly, the Midrealm is a jewel of the Known World! Draco Invictus! Marcus, KEM" I have assessed the records for the past 12 months and if anyone had signed in during that time, you have been noted as active. If you are not local and attended other practices or an event please message me at cynnabar.marshal at midrealm.org. II will be submitting "inactives" within the next two weeks. This includes combat archers. Thanks in advance, Ugrath >From MKEM far, and I also want to add how proud and impressed I am with our kingdom.
