ANY ADDITIONAL NOTES, COMMENTS, CONCERNS, CHANGES, ETC.:

Comments:

We have reviewed and modified our operating procedures. Biggest changes: we now hold an Annual General Meeting (AGM) where officers are selected, budgets ratified and policies established. Overall, the changes affect only the mundane side of the operations and have been liberally taken from "Parliamentary Procedure at a Glance" by O. Garfield Jones, which is a condensation of Robert's Rules for small clubs and organizations. The entire text of the new policies may be found at http://www.eastkingdom.info/lyndhaven/files/seneschal/shire_policy.html

(username: guest, password: guest)

Concerns:

The finances of Crown Tourney are being audited. I'll be carrying copies of all paperwork with me to the War. I am unsure of what has prompted this and look forward to a quick resolution.

Plans for the future:

We've been considering events with the following themes:

25 Jun 2008: Lyndhaven - MOAS report, Jun 2008

SHIRE OF LYNDHAVEN
QUARTERLY REPORT FOR 01 JUNE 2008
(submitted 30 June 2008)

Preface

I must begin by begging your forgiveness for getting this report off past the due date of 01 June 08. Being very new to the SCA (since September 2007) and even newer at this post (Mistress of Arts & Science – May 2008), I am still on a very sharp learning curve of what is expected in my post as well as what I should do for a report.

Spring Schola

Speaking of Spring Schola (17 May 2008 at Lindsey Valley), was exceptionally well done. All classes ran as expected and everyone who attended seemed to be very pleased with the instruction they received at various posts. From the drawing, beasts of heraldry, herald-ing, history of the tunic, dance lessons and, of course, operating the trebuchet, knowledge was shared by the various instructors and appreciated by the recipients. This was followed by a very nice (and filling) feast of many dishes, of which the “Split Nuns” were my particular favourite. Who would have thought that nutmeg and savory would go together so well with egg yolk?

Individual sources

That being said, I decided to canvas the local blog-spots for input for this report. In doing so, I have received many and great projects that people are engaged in. I have been extremely fascinated at the dedication of these people to their crafts, whatever they may be (fighters included!) and at how intensely they concentrate on genuine re-enactment and at the length and breadth they will go to ensure period ethnicity.

The following paragraphs are quotes from emails I have received to this request, with others coming in daily.

From Lord Conogan mab Rioc, the Breton:

“Here are the projects I have on the go, or recently completed: Heraldic shield tree; “ ‘love song’ for Margaret at the Wood; boiled leather vambraces (armour); and general armour repair.”

From Lady Katinka:

“We had a great turnout of the Ruantallan Chapter of Athena’s Thimble guild in my home last month. We had 4 members from Ruantallan attend, 4 from the Woodstock/Oromocto area and there were about 4 from an Crioch Cala (Moncton). We discussed possibilities of starting a regular meeting rotating to different homes over the next several months starting in September. We are looking into making banners and gonfalons as an embroidery project for a pictorial archive of our Shire of Lyndhaven. We want to work on Shire items once every two months together. Once a month on local area projects, and once a week on personal projects. We haven’t been in contact as of yet as to which projects we’ll be putting our hands and heads to for the Shire and local are projects. We have a few ideas, but we’re looking forward to scheduling our first meeting in September.”

From Lady Griet:

“Well, I’m not sure what you need or from what point...I have been further researching life in early/mid 16th century in Antwerp and occasionally posting some of my stuff in some online forums. I also transcribed an early 16th century book, ‘The Orders of Hospitals’ and have it available in at least one blog. As for building stuff, am currently building/rebuilding a better model for early/mid 16th century clothes in the Brabant area. Not quite medieval, the back yard is going through the process of building a brick oven and a 16th century style rangetop. A slow process however as my supplies are limited. I do hope to have it done before too long! The feast for crown was also a research project from use of humours and eating customs and menu items from 16th century Germany. The ravioli made for the last event in the Shire (Schola) was also an item period to 16th century Germany and was also done from direct transcription/translation (though those parts were done by someone else). The recipe being for two types of ravioli (one ending up vegetarian and other not).

Lately, I have not been making soap, but as usual, am always available for instruction/troubleshooting etc. I hope to be available for instruction in other areas (depending on supply) in the future, such as period sausage making, cheese making etc., and other types of hands-on classes.

I also have a main website (though have been willfully neglecting it for some time) with some past projects and bits connected to it: www.thecompendium.info”

From Lord Hew of K:

Hew's Lawn Labyrinth

http://www.northernelectric.ca/medieval/labyrinth/labyrinth.htm

From Lady Inga:

During the Midsummer Event in Smithwick, I had a brief conversation with Lady Inga. She told me that she is currently researching and making medieval toys and games. Being an Early Child Educator in mundane practice, she is interested in seeing what activities the little ones had during the medieval period.

Conclusion

Well, this is it for my first report as the Shire’s new MoA&S, 2008. I certainly hope that this is sufficient for now as I canvassed the groups late and only waited for a week for responses. My sincerest apologies for the late start and late report (due June 1). I will make sure that I put out the notice a little sooner next quarter and hope to be able to bring you more exciting projects that the Good Gentles in our Shire are working on.

I remain continually impressed with what they are achieving and have learned many things in just doing this one report. We have an extremely talented group that exude great enthusiasm for their passions which is quite contagious – which is an excellent thing!

Vivant!

Yours sincerely,

Pani Danuska
MoA&S
Shire of Lyndhaven

About 400 km

Is there a particular group or type of tourney that you help with most often?

Shire of Lyndhaven

How would you rate your performance as Minister of Lists for your group?

Comments:

What are your goals for your office in the upcoming year?

My goal is to become more familiar with different tourney styles besides single, double elim and round robin by running some small local tourney events.

Kingdom & Regional MOL Office

How can the Kingdom office and/or the Regional officers help you meet these goals?

I think moral support and being open to questions are the best ways those officers can help me.

What has been the biggest challenge for your office in the past year?

The biggest challenge was actually my own authorization in rattan combat. It turned out one of the signing marshals at the time was holding onto a white card more than 6 weeks old, and I found out only after receiving my blue card. I worked it out with some questions and direction from the regional MOL, and re-authorized at the next event.

What is the one thing the Kingdom office could help you to do that it is not doing now?

Perhaps the single most important thing would be to more clearly identify those who have been sanctioned from fighting, with expiry dates on those sanctions.

Kingdom MOL Website

Have you visited the Minister of Lists website in the past two months?

Yes

How useful have you found the website to be?

Not useful Fairly useful Pretty useful Very useful

What could be done to make the website more useful to you?

If the rattan and rapier databases were more consistent with one another, it might make them easier to read. Leave all of the style-specific information to the right-most columns.

Have you tried to download any documents from the website?

Yes

If so, what was it, and how successful was the download (i.e.: worked fine, didn't work at all, got the document but with a funny format, etc)?

All documents, and they worked fine.

Do you need access to the databases?

Yes

Are you currently a member of our group list? (lists-list@yahoogroups.com)

Yes

We use this group list to communicate to all our kingdom MoL, both locals and "at-large" please make an effort to join. Note: you can get this in digest form or just read it on the internet as not to clog up your email.

Handbook

Yes

Was it helpful?

Do you keep copies for your records?

Yes

Report on Preparations for Crown Tourney

Conogan, the autocrat, gave a brief report on the preparations for Crown Tourney as follows:

The planning for spring crown is continuing apace. The shield tree was assembled today (thanks Doccia) with its cross members and looked quite impressive. It went up in about 40 seconds.

Also, I have a "99% sure" note from the base RSM's office that we can have stanchions and cordon rope delivered to J7 for our use. They will let me know tomorrow or Friday.

Also, due to the lack of minors attending, and volunteer shortage, we won't have any organized children's activities. There were only 15 minors at last count, and many were teenagers.

That's about it to report for now, except that everyone is looking forward to attending!

PayPal

It was brought up to investigate whether we could use PayPal to ease the troubles of accepting reservations for far away.

28 Mar 2008: Conogan is made Lord of the Court

Upon 22 Mar 08, in the Court of Andreas Eisfalke Von Ulm, King by Right of Arms of this Eastern Kingdom, and Gabriella von Ulm, his Queen, Conogan mab Rioc was called into the royal presence and made a Lord of Their Court.

04 Mar 2008: Crown Tourney: Feast is Full!

All regular seating at the Feast is full till further notice.

We are now taking names for our overflow list.

Remember there is a block of seats still reserved for Tourney Entrants & Consorts- but if we don`t hear from those Entrants & Consorts by April 12th those seats will open up to the people on the overflow list!

02 Mar 2008: New local web resource

From Griet: "A few of us gals been talking (could you guess who lol) and I've been playing with websites lately (again and still) and we came up with very simple little website of gleaned information from local lists and other stuff. We hope it could be of use :)

"It isn't a Shire website, nor is it meant to replace it... "

18 Feb 2008: War Camp canceled for 2008

This coming April we'll be hosting the East Kingdom Spring Crown Tourney. This is going to be a grand event and I know that many of you are planning on attending.

In light of such realities as "personal budgets" and "not enough time", we have decided to cancel Lyndhaven's hosting of the Northern Shores Regional War Camp for this year, only. Lyndhaven will resume hosting the War Camp, again, in 2009.

This year, we will be holding a day-trip friendly Schola with "pot-luck" feast and a dance, but it is going to be a low-key affair, friendly and restful. If anyone has any questions concerning this decision, please contact the Seneschal, directly.

We are in the process of reworking our web presence. When finished, our web minister will be responsible for the site framework, but individual officers will be maintaining content, directly. This will include a long-term "chronicle", maintained by our Chronicler and Seneschal.

As reported previously, our operating documents need an overhaul. Nothing too drastic (I hope) but there are a few spots that would benefit from being changed to describe how we actually run the Shire at present.

10 Jan 2008: Lyndhaven - MOAS report, Jan 2008

We have a group of people in the Moncton area getting together sporadically to work on projects, as well as some in the Oromocto/Gagetown area. That's all I know of at the moment.

04 Dec 2007: Holiday Ball - thanks from the autocrat

The many thanks to the people involved in the Holiday Ball of 01 Dec 07, posted to the Lyndhaven e-mail list on 4 Dec 07.

Greetings are sent unto the populaces of Lyndhaven and Ruantallan from Conogan mab Rioc, the Breton!

Thank you very much for attending our Holiday Ball on Saturday night. It was great to see so many new faces (nine in total) and so many old friends! There were a total of 29 gentles in attendance, with 9 of those being newcomers!

There were four merchants in attendance with a wide variety of items. Merchants are always welcome, and they add a wonderful dimension and resource for our events!

I would like to extend a great thank you to all those who helped set up the tables and the chairs. Vivat!

The banners on display were good to see. They always add to the atmosphere of the hall. If anyone would like one of their own, please let us know and we'll organize another banner-making night.

The food was delicious, and the number of offerings overwhelmed my appetite. There were many items I wanted to try, but my belly was already straining from the first two trips to the buffet table! I would encourage anyone who researched a period recipe to post it with your sources to the Lyndhaven list files section! Thank you, to all of the cooks!

Besides the feast, we also had two birthdays celebrated that evening, Gebiedster Mergriet van Wijenhorst and Father Theodrik Melanchthon. The cupcakes were delicious, and such a great idea from Pomenitsa Natali'a. Thanks, Tali'a!

After the feast, there was the apprenticing ceremony of Maestressa Elena Rueda viuda de Lochcarron and Lady Moriath Fitzgerald of Kildare. (Yay!)
It is good to see the experience of the Laurels is being passed along.

Songs were sung, tunes were played, and then the tables were cleared to make room for the dancing! Lady Patricia of Roxborough, otherwise known as Lady Pia, led us all in many great dances and bransles! Master Henry MacQueen of Longhouse helped us with music on his recorder. An experienced Troubadour is a precious asset with so many learning dancers! Thank you, Lady Pia and Master Henry! Our Holiday Ball would not have been much of a ball without your leadership!

When our legs could no longer support us in dance, Master Henry dazzled us with a display of prestidigitation. He made his four gold coins appear and disappear with great ease, to the delight and amazement of the gathered gentles. With such magical movement of coins, the exchequer has her work cut out for her!

And of course I would like to give a hearty thank you to all those who stayed and helped with the cleaning of the hall. Vivat!

There were a few items left at the hall, but we managed to place them with their owners on Sunday. There was one other item lost, which has so far has not been found: a small black wallet with words embroidered in blue on it. If anyone has seen it, please contact me off-list.

I hope everyone is safe and snug during this snowstorm.

Yours in Service,
Conogan mab Rioc, the Breton
mka Peter Gillet

ANY ADDITIONAL NOTES, COMMENTS, CONCERNS, CHANGES, ETC.:

Comments:

Our books are now all sorted out and reports covering the past few years have been submitted. Nothing terrible was found: only simple neglect. Again I feel the need to lavish praise on our exchequer, Lady Moriath, for her perseverance and professionalism.

On a less happy note, my comment in my previous report concerning the reporting from War Camp was overly optimistic. Although a draft event report was made available to me in time for the report, it was nearly three months later, and after the intervention of the regional exchequer, before the autocrat turned over the receipts, money and paperwork to the exchequer. They arrived in sufficient disarray as to preclude the likelihood of accurate reconciliation.

I have no reason to believe that there was either malice or dishonesty in her dealings... only carelessness. Despite this, due to what appears to be a personal failing in the area of handling money, I recommend to future seneschals that Gina Stairs would be unsuitable as an event autocrat in the future.

Concerns:

None, at the moment.

Plans for the future:

Our operating documents need an overhaul. Nothing too drastic (I hope) but there are a few spots that would benefit from being changed to describe how we actually run the Shire at present.

ANY ADDITIONAL NOTES, COMMENTS, CONCERNS, CHANGES, ETC.:

Comments:

I commend our exchequor on the long hours that she has put into her job.

Concerns:

We are still in the process of sorting out the books. Apparently, no reports were filed from 2006 to present. Our exchequor has nearly completed her forensic analysis of our books and expects to be able to issue a full report by the end of July 2007. Freya and Molly are both in the loop on this one.

The good news is that I haven't been informed of there being any money missing. It just appears to be a matter of long-term neglect of the books.

The "current balance" (above) may not be accurately reflective of our current financial position. It is simply the entry at the bottom of the ledger and does not account for:

The tardiness of the war camp autocrat has been so extreme and the event report, when finally submitted, was so filled with errors that I would be hesitant, at this time, to endorse her as autocrat for any future events.

Plans for the future:

Our operating documents need an overhaul. Nothing too drastic (I hope) but there are a few spots that would benefit from being changed to describe how we actually run the Shire at present.

Secretary's notes:

Minutes of Shire of Lyndhaven Populous Meeting Held at Northern Shores War Camp, 19 May 2007 (titles have not been used for names)

The Chair called the meeting to order at 1905 hrs.

The agenda for the meeting was the review of the fiscal budgets submitted by the shire's curia officers for recurring expenses.

The shire exchequor, Moriath, stated the shire's finances are in good order, with a bank balance of $3350.49.

She had not yet spoken to the autocrat of the war camp for a final tally of that event.

The Chair read the proposed budget, and explained that officer monthly budgets do not roll over from one month to the next. Curia must approve more than the stated amounts given any particular month. The budgets for 2007-2008 were:

Aetheric suggested adopting a policy of $5 per officer per month. It was explained that officers could always bring expenditures to curia meetings if they were willing to risk the small amounts. The $20 / month were for the exchequor and the Minister of Lists, mostly for expected recurring postage and photocopying expenses.

Isard moved to adopt the budget.
Liz seconded the motion.
The ayes carried the motion.

The Chair opened the floor to new business.

Conogan mentioned that the on-line meetings were a convenient and economical way of bringing the curia together to deal with on-going business.

There was nothing further.

No date was set for the next shire meeting.

Moriath moved to adjourn the meeting.
It was seconded and carried.

The meeting closed at 1922 hrs.

EVENTS/DEMOS HELD THIS QUARTER:

(DATE, EVENT NAME, PLACE, ATTENDANCE, ACTIVITIES, AND PLEASE INDICATE WHETHER PUBLISHED IN PIKESTAFF)

27 Jan 07, MAC potluck (no) (non-SCA)

31 Mar 07, Feast of Fools (no Pikestaff, heavily publicized via the web)

I've included non-SCA events in my event list. Medieval Anachronists Club (MAC) events are hosted by a military base club at CFB Gagetown. The event was open to all SCA people, not just MAC club members. No SCA funds were used. The event was publicized on our Shire e-mail list and was run by the customs and demeanor that we expect of SCA events.

This past March, we held the fifth annual "Feast of Fools", the first fully official Lyndhaven event in the Fredericton area in about five years. Well attended, well received, very successful.

Also, a display was held in conjunction with Heritage week at the L.P. Fisher Public Library in Woodstock, NB and lasted for 2 weeks.

EVENTS/DEMOS PLANNED:

May 21, Spring Schola and Northern Shores Region Warcamp (big camping event)

Demo at "Gathering of the Scots" festival in Perth Andover on the last weekend in May.

We are looking at the possibility of having a Demo at Base Gagetown, Oromocto during their yearly base club demo weekend.

ANY ADDITIONAL NOTES, COMMENTS, CONCERNS, CHANGES, ETC.:

Comments:

The Shire is beginning to show signs of recovery. Officer meetings are very orderly and business is getting done smoothly and with enthusiasm and positive input from all of the officers.

The Shire books have finally gotten to our exchequor, who is in the process of doing a forensic analysis of their contents. For that and other reasons, the exchequor's reports have been tardy, but this has been with the understanding, permission and support of our regional exchequor.

The stealth officer in the Moncton area has broken cover and is now listed as the KM in this report.

More and more of our administrative support structure is being migrated to the internet with notable success. Where officers had been unable to meet due to travel problems in the past, we now meet and communicate regularly via the 'net. Event proposal packages, budgets and reports are also on-line. This is having a very positive effect on the day-to-day running of the branch.

Concerns:

Nothing pressing at the moment, I'm glad to say.

Plans for the future:

The plans outlined in my previous report are still, for the most part, valid. Work towards their implementation continues apace.

One additional note: most of the internet server space being used for Shire infrastructure support is not on "lyndhaven.org", due to that server being limited in nature. We are working towards moving our web content to a better server, at which point we should be able to migrate our infrastructure.

01 Mar 2007: Lyndhaven - MOL report, Mar 2007

Greetings are sent unto Dona Estrella de los Confinos from Conogan mab Rioc, the Breton,

Here is my report. Unfortunately I didn’t see any report forms on the MOL web site to use, so I apologize if this report is not in a standard form.

This is what I can report since taking office on October 1st, 2006.

There have been many unofficial fighter practices around the shire, but none have been reported to me as official SCA events.

There have been no rattan or fencing tournaments held.

I tried to poll the shire’s population for rattan and fence authorized fighters’ information, and attached (pdf) are the only respondants.

I have combined the rattan and fence information into one file. Please let me know if this is not recommended.

Upcoming for the next year, to my knowledge, we have a warcamp for the weekend of May 18th. I will be attending to help with authorizations, tournaments, etc.. I will also attempt to poll any attendees for their information so that next year’s census can be more complete and accurate.

I will continue to report throughout this coming year within 10 days of any tournaments and authorizations.

Finally, do you have a current email address for the Northern Shores MOL deputy? It is not listed on the EK website.

Yours in Service,

Conogan mab Rioc, the Breton

MoAS report for Shire of Lyndhaven
Date Filed: February 28, 2007

Greetings Mistress Gwen!

There isn't much to report of here in our little shire.

Moncton area - not much to speak of

Fredericton/Oromocto/Gagetown - a group of them are working on banners, favours, and armour (enough for 7 people to be on the field at NSR warcamp in May)

Woodstock - We have recently put together an A&S display at the local library to showcase our talents.

We will be hosting the NSR Warcamp in May that will also play host to our annual Spring Schola. I have a list at the moment of about 5-10 teachers of various classes.

That is my report for now.

ANY ADDITIONAL NOTES, COMMENTS, CONCERNS, CHANGES, ETC.:

Comments:

The Shire is not thriving. I don't believe this state of affairs to be the fault of previous officers, and it would be an exaggeration to say that the Shire is currently "sick", but this slate of officers has inherited a situation that requires a proactive stance if we are to bring the shire back to a state of vibrancy. This may almost certainly entail making uncomfortable changes to the status quo, much of it in our operating policies and procedures. It is my intent to develop and implement these changes with the input and assistance of the shire as a whole (see "Plans", below).

I have regular communication with the Shire officers, which is a good thing. There is a large portion of our population that lives in the Moncton area, and there are no officers in the current slate who are from there, which is a not-good thing. The one person in the Moncton area who may (or may not) be an officer of the Shire (purportedly the Knight Marshal) has not replied to e-mail that I have sent him, so I have been unable to confirm his status.

Other than that last, we now have a darned fine team of officers in Lyndhaven and I have every confidence in them.

Concerns:

The previous exchequor has still not yielded the books. The current exchequor has escalated the issue to me and I'm keeping the regional Seneschal in the loop. I have reached the conclusion that I'm going to have to drive to her place sometime in the next couple of weeks to pick up the books (a round trip of about 200 miles).

Plans for the future:

I wish there was a single cure-all for our ills but, alas, it is not so. There are, however, a couple of things that I believe need to be addressed in the near future:

It is my hope that we can have a draft of a new Shire "Policies & Procedures" document finished and published in time for a month of comments and changes prior to placing it before a general meeting in May.

01 Jan 2007: Lyndhaven - Chatelaine report, Jan 2007

  1. A contact list is being compiled and in January, each person on the list will receive a packet containing the pamphlet “Forward Into the Past”, and other relevant contact info.
  2. I am working on designing a brochure to place in the library, grocery stores, etc…
  3. I am working with the Arts and Science minister and another member (Bob Waller/Snarfi Snorison) to start monthly interactive novice arts and science classes, so that prospective members will have an opportunity to immediately experience some SCA activity, as well as a project that they can take home with them to help develop their persona.
  4. I am beginning the plans for a summer Demo. (It is still in the discussion stage.)
  5. I am working on a scrapbook for display at demos, which gives an overview SCA activities.
  6. Speaking with Owen Flewelling/Lord Llewelyn Ap Olwyn about the possibility of making a short movie/ power point presentation which would give an overview of the different activities of the Shire. Lord Llewelyn is also actively recruiting those interested in the heavy fighting aspect of the SCA and is collecting maintaining loaner armour so that they can participate immediately after going through the safety rules.
  7. Disscussions (with Senechal and other members) of potential avenues where we can meet with the public and increase public awareness (ie. Combine a demo with a foodbank drive).

In their Majesties Service,

Kate Waller/ Inga Thorgansdottir

01 Jan 2007: Lyndhaven - MOL report, Jan 2007

Since becoming the MOL for the shire, there have been no official SCA heavy combat or rapier practices reported to me. I have asked Lord Aethelwulf to keep me informed of any practices around Woodstock and Lord Jonathan Rose to keep me informed of any practices around Moncton.

Locally, we still have indoor fighting facilities, at CFB Gagetown, and a scheduled time on Sunday afternoons in the J7 drill hall.

I have yet to compile an updated list of fighters and rapier combatants, but I will be asking for information within the month for my report up to Kingdom.

Subject: Shire of Lyndhaven MOAS report

Greetings Lady Joane and Mistress Danabren!

I wish to report to you that our shire seems to be forgetful and, to this date, I have not received any information from anyone on any projects. I do understand, however, that Master Aetheric is currently doing scrolls, as well as coaching his apprentice, Inga Torgansdottir with the same art. I am also putting together a few projects of late Italian Ren. gowns. A few of our members in the Fredericton/Oromocto/Gagetown area are getting together on Friday evenings for
