My thanks goes out to everyone who attended.<o:p></o:p></p><p>Between the incredible July weather (humid, but not too hot), and the support of the Kingdom Earl Marshal, (Sir Otto, who enabled us to hold Last Chance for Pennsic authorizations one day after the posted cut off) in the stead of a few neighbors for whom circumstances did not permit their events, and many folks who gave up half of their own last weekend before Pennsic to come out and help run the event, we were able to keep Bloodbath on the calendar, and serve the many folks who look forward to it every year.<o:p></o:p></p><p>At the risk of missing someone (like field deputies and MiTs), I would like to thank the following people without whose efforts, this event would not have been the success it was:<o:p></o:p></p><p>Lady Sophia van der Werken - Interim Head Cook<br>Baroness Adina - Drop Dead Cook<br>Baron Drogo - Site setup<br>THL Alric the Mad - Armored MiC<br>Master Marcellus Capoziello da Napoli - Rapier MiC<br>Baron William le Younger - Combat Archery Marshal<br>THL Cellach Mór - Baronial MoL<br>Lady Theresa O Cahir - Assistant MoL<br>Sir Cian Conor MacQuaid - Assistant MoL<br>Joanne Walker - Lunch Hostess<br>THL Flora de Bayeaux - Chetelaine/Newcomer's Point<br>and last, but never least, my wife<br>Lady Agnete Koeslin - Gate Steward<o:p></o:p></p><p>Please extend my thanks to any deputies, assistants, and MiTs I failed to call out. They were all integral in our success.<o:p></o:p></p><p>I would also like to personally commend Mary Dotson and her husband, Rick, who (between the two of them) came early, stayed late, and always stepped in when they saw something that needed doing, without waiting to be asked. In my opinion, their style is the heart of what makes the SCA endure.<o:p></o:p></p><p>-- Lord Grimkirk ap Greymoor, Event Autocrat<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p></div></div></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><div><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>Ponte-Alto mailing list</span><br><span><a href="mailto:Ponte-Alto@seahorse.atlantia.sca.org">Ponte-Alto@seahorse.atlantia.sca.org</a></span><br><span><a href="http://seahorse.atlantia.sca.org/listinfo.cgi/ponte-alto-atlantia.sca.org">http://seahorse.atlantia.sca.org/listinfo.cgi/ponte-alto-atlantia.sca.org</a></span><br></div></blockquote></body></html>
