[MR] 50th year

[Garth Groff]

M'Lady Patricia,

Sounds like Coopers Lake! T'would seem to me though, that a site in the 
Bay Area of Northern California would be the most appropriate, since it 
all began there.

Yours Aye,


Lord Mungo Napier, Who Missed His Chance to Join Incipient Caid in 1972.

I think that site might be able to hold 800 attendees if additional amenities were brought to the site, but I'm not sure it could reach even 1500. Given that Storvik is a rather urban barony, I can't think of any sites within our lands that would be big enough to host such a site. (Please note: I am speaking for myself, NOT the entire barony.)
