On the 12th of April, AS 42, her Majesty Kari, Queen of Atlantia, did

known as Night on the Town, within the Barony of Lochmere.

Upon this Court, the following business was transacted:

(please note, awards preceded with a ** indicate that I am in need of
the modern name for the individual noted, if you could please send it
to me *OFFLIST* (gormofberra at gmail.com) , so that the Heralds can be
certain the awards are recorded correctly in the OP, I would be most
appreciative.  Likewise, if you are aware of a misspelling or update
to the individuals SCA name, I would be appreciative of receiving that
information as well.)

1.  Her Majesty called forth Lord Dominyk Wolferam, her Queen's
Champion, did thank him for his service, and allowed him to step down
from the duty.  Lord Dante di Pietro was called forth and given the

At this point, the Baronage of Lochmere did request, and were allowed,
to open a Court to transact some business of their own (see separate

remember this day by.
