[Ponte Alto] Greetings from New Member

[W. Richmond Beevers]

Greetings, Milady.  As I am more than a little new in the Barony, I don't know if I can say "Welcome to the Barony" as I'm still in the "being welcomed" stage myself.  However, if your experience here is anything like mine as a newcomer, you will find people here to be open, kind, thoughtful, helpful, welcoming, and polite.  This Barony is much larger than my old one with more neat and interesting activities than you can shake a stick at.  The problem will probably be choosing between all the neat stuff to do, rather than hunting something up.

I'm a fencer, a herald, and an aspiring heavy fighter.  If you have any interests in those areas, look me up.

Although I am new to the Barony and Kingdom, I am not new to the SCA.  If there is any sort of advice I can give, please do not hesitate to let me know.  You my reach me by e-mail here, or at my home, 703-719-0997.

Your in Humble Service,

Wulfred+

MKA

W. Richmond Beevers, MA, LL.M., Esq.

In te, Domine, speravi

  Hi guys!

  I just signed up to this list and wanted to say hi.

  I am a mom of 5 little girls; one is joining SCA with me.
  I'm your typical role-playing gamer and do computer support for work.  I work nights, so working certain things into the business week schedule might be rough.  I am happy to volunteer for things others can't do when they're stuck at work during the day though!

  I'm interested in archery, cooking, and jewelry making.  My mom taught me to shoot when I was a kid, although I haven't touched a bow in ages and am curious where you would go to practice or what the laws in VA are??

  I am used to cooking for my large family, and am excited to learn some period recipes.

  I used to do beading in college as a hobby, because I'm so awful at sewing that will probably be my A&S contribution.

  My oldest daughter interested in joining is Kathryn.  She is 10 and loves history and reading.  She's also into RPG's, although she thought the SCA could teach her how to do spells.  I wonder if there's something in the A&S department that might be like alchemy or something?  She also wants to learn archery.

  Look forward to meeting everyone.  I knew Kevin Maxson in college, and have worked with his dad for years.

  Best wishes,
  Sharon
