General Business: Richard (Correct me if I'm wrong, didn't make a note of who suggested this) suggested we book the site for DA a year in advance to get the dates we want. Selwyn has been using a lot of his own gear for archery on Sundays, and would like around $400 for archery supplies for the Shire. Asked to provide an exact figure, but it'll be spent on: 2 x 12 target arrows 2 x target backs some target faces repair equipment - fletching glue, fletchings, etc. This was approved pending exact costs. Meeting closed 7.37 NOTE: Your friendly local Seneschal was very sick this meeting, hence the brevity. After meeting thoughts from the Seneschal (who is feeling much better): -I am slack, haven't written up "useful stuff bag" ideas. No luck locating the Shire first aid kit, hopefully the Great Organise will turn it up -There will be a Great Organise at some point - our lovely Quartermaster may need a hand to rationalise Shire stuff. Details to come when it happens. -Collegium site paid for. Need classes! -Tallulah may not visit until later this year/another time. I am still keen for an illumination workshop, she will get back to me with possible dates.
