It wasn't really a criticism about how Terpsichore is handled. In fact a few people did mention within the meeting that it is because we have such great musicians and teachers that the reputation of </span><span>Terpsichore is so great. The opinions varied greatly within the meeting and we've been asked to keep the conversation going so we can figure out how people feel, per our seneschal.

people to fill these rolls for this event. A result of that non-local member talent is that we end up with a more diverse class list (which draws more people here) and a reputation for a fantastic dance band (which we have achieved). We may want to keep that in mind if we make changes to the policy or craft a general policy for all Cynnabar events. We may have greater expectations that local members will work at events without such a discount, acting in the hosting roll.<br><br>Alina<br>_______________________________________________<br>Barony mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:Barony@cynnabar.org" href="mailto:Barony@cynnabar.org">Barony@cynnabar.org</a><br><a href="http://lists.cynnabar.org/listinfo/barony" target="_blank">http://lists.cynnabar.org/listinfo/barony</a><br><br><br></div></div></div></body></html>
