[MR] FW: Royal Pavilion Fundraiser

[Tara L. McDonough]

Unto the populace of fair Atlantia, Greetings from your Queen.


As many of you have undoubtedly read by now, Atlantia's Pelicans are heading
a project to purchase a pavilion for the kingdom. In December's Acorn,
Master Tirloch and Master AElfred published a notice giving out some very
general details.

The Order of the Pelican is raising money for the purchase of a 20' x 30'
rectangular pavilion. The purchase price will include the walls, poles,
ropes, and stakes. The pavilion will be purchased at a substantial discount,
from Panther Primitives. Many of you already own Panther tents and are well
aware of their quality and workmanship. The poles will be 7' tall with the
walls sized accordingly.

For $10 an approximately 5 1/2" by 5 1/2" shield bearing your registered
device will be painted and sewn on to a dag. (Sorry, but for uniformity's
sake we will not sew lozenges on the pavilion.)

There are 270 (out of approximately 300) spaces available for purchase by
the populace of the kingdom. The remaining 30 spaces will be auctioned off
as a fund-raiser for The Oak.

Master Tirloch and Master AElfred will take requests from any person, with
registered arms, for inclusion in a drawing for a spot on the pavilion. What
they need from you is a LETTER (snail mail is still more reliable than
e-mail) with mundane name, SCA name, address, telephone number, and e-mail
address, if you have one, and how you would like to be contacted if
selected. (If you choose to be notified by mail please include a self
addressed stamped envelope or post card.)

Please do NOT send them any money at this time. Let us say that again...DO
NOT SEND MONEY. (If you are selected they will then ask you for money.)
Master Tirloch and Master AElfred will be available at University and the
Kingdom A&S to personally accept submissions.

They will collect names that will be put into a lottery. At Kingdom A&S, the
Order with Our help will draw 270 names and the winners will be contacted.
There are no predetermined names in the lottery.

If you have been selected, they will ask you send a check for $10 (made out
to the Kingdom of Atlantia), the blazon of your device, and a drawing of
your device, preferably on a 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" shield.

Groups of people may get together and submit their requests in one letter.
Each person may only make one submission. If you are selected, and so
desire, you may use your spot for a registered household device.

Groups such as shires, colleges, cantons, baronies, strongholds, and
principalities are not allowed in the lottery.  We will have an interior
banner that will display the SCA branches.
We hope this answers most questions on the topic. If not please contact
either Master Tirloch, at tirloch at cox.rr.com, or Master Aelfred at
ttoich at earthlink.net.

Master Aelfred can be contacted also at Tony Toich, 426 Creekside Lane,
Lexington, SC 29072;
Master Tirloch can be contacted also at Tom Bilodeau, 13456 Cobra Ct, Oak
Hill, VA 20171

Thank you for your consideration and support in the royal pavilion
fundraiser.
