[MR] VIVATS to Master Bryce de Byram!!!!

[Gillam, Carol Denise]

Vivats to the entire Sapphire Joust Staff!!

Though the rains poured and the ground squished as a result of the deluge, the people of Strawberry Fields by and large had a wonderful time.  A big thank you to Master Bryce and his staff for the hard work they did to make the event a success.  This was a great site for events and we hope it worked out well enough to be used again.  

In sincere gratitude,
Caroline
