[MR] [caermear] Sapphire Thanks

Tue May 30 19:30:38 PDT 2006

As much as I would love to take credit for the hard work on the thrown
weapons field, I was called away on Saturday.

I would like to say thank you to our 2 newest thrown weapons marshals who
work very hard in my steed.

Lady Clarice Of Caer Gelynniog and Lord Brain From Yarnvid
Thank you both. 

Melisent as always it's a pleasure to help someone who works as hard as you
do to put on a great event.

First, forgive me if you get this email several times over.  I am simply
trying to see that credit it given where it is due. 

Second, forgive me if I forget your name on this list because I could swear
that I owe half the kingdom a word of thanks for all of their help with
Sapphire Joust. 

I wish first to thank Their Royal Majesties for attending Sapphire and
making it a truly special and memorable event.  The same thanks I also
extend to Their Highnesses, and to their Excellencies of Caer Mear, and to
all of the landed baronage who came to celebrate the Silver Anniversary of
this Kingdom. 

Next I wish to thank my staff: 
Baroness Ysabeau- reservations and troll Sir Bryce- MIC and list field
co-ordinator (and supportive husband *grin*) Lady Lisette- MOL (She gets the
Iron Lady award for number of hours spent manning the MOL table!) Master
Fritz- Land steward Lady Iseulte- A&S Co-ordinator Earl Mika Longbow-
Archery Larry Baxter and Kenelm Rogan- Thrown weapons Baroness Oriana- for
the beautiful site tokens Ren Morgane- CIC Lord Miguel- Merchant Coordinator
Anne of Isenfir- Waterbearing Dame Anne le Couer- for planning the Queens
Solar (and her husband Master John for cooking and sending up the
outstanding food) Lady Sorcha Graughn- decorations set up Lord Uilleag Ã“
Conmhaic- prizes for archery and thrown weapons Lord Muin maqq MÃnaÃn-
Sapphire and Ruby prizes

Next, I wish to thank the miriad of people who worked tirelessly throughout
the weekend and assisted any way they were able.  It is the dedicated
assistance of volunteers who make events complete and organized.

Gustav von Silverwald, William Thomas, Lazaros Tagaris, Domenico Barbiere da
Mantova, Sir Tacius, his household and the Stierbach encampment for their
assistance with break down, Constantina, Manus, Gorm of Berra, Ysolt de la
Mer, every single person who took a shift at troll or volunteered to herald,
everyone who marshalled, who helped with set up and with breaking down.  

I am not jesting when I tell you that this was a Kingdom wide effort.  The
Barony of Lochmere has my thanks for the use of their listfence.  Mistress
Genvieve brought all of the historical regalia and the baldequin out. The
Shire of Isenfir offered food for all who wished it.  People from all over
the kingdom volunteered to assist wherever they could to make the event
smoother and better. 

I also wish to thank everyone who came out, especially those who
pre-registered.  They tell me that the courtesy of pre-registrations are a
thing of the past and how difficult it is on autocrats when they do not know
how many to expect at their events, however, to the 450 who pre-registered,
you have as much of my thanks as those who I have listed here by name for
making things easier on myself and my staff.  Thank you for the huge
response and courtesy of pre-registering.  

I hope and pray that all returned from their travels safely and happily.  I
thank you ALL for coming to Sapphire and if I could wish for anything more
it is to hope that I see each and everyone of you next year return to vist
Caer Mear and enjoy Sapphire Joust again. 

With sincere gratitude,
Melisent la Ruse
Autocrat- Sapphire Joust
