Fwd: Re: [MR] FW: [gdh] Fw: Pennsic 30 Budget

[Karen Banks]

I think Rebecca was refering to the local SCA
community and yes, I do question how the money I spend
at a business is used. I want the money I spend
through the SCA to be spent on programs and activities
which support our efforts and I think that the
construction of this fort meets that criteria. I
didn't recall Rebecca ever writing that Pennsic was a
bad thing.

It is my birthday tomorrow and my birthday wish is
that we could bitch about something else now. okay?!
*smile*

All the best and have a great weekend! - Karen of
