Sheriff Business:
• Discussion: Starting our “major event” tradition for a summer event (midreign or coro, depending on the dates for the vote.)
o Date 8 August
o Same location as the Hard Core Quest last year (Mile Slip Town Forest)?
Primitive site
• rent port-a-potties
• Camp fire or grill cooking
• Overnight
• Bring our own water (I have 8 5 gallon jugs)
• Free to use (with permission from town)
• Mile Slip Rd, Milford NH (43 miles, 1 hour 9 min from normal park)
o Other locations?
• Needs the following:
• Affordable
• Room for camping
• Trails for quests
• Open/semi-open area for battlegames
• Bath rooms or access to port-a-potties
• Ability to prepare food (ground fires or portable grills) on site.
• Need to have the following info
• Who to contact
• What restrictions (alcohol? Fire regulations? Permits required?)
• Costs
**** Will NOT do this without help! If no help, our event will just be park day with restaurant court as before.
• Discussion: Recruiting Contest
o Goal: Total attendance of 25+ on a regular basis by the end of summer.
o Rules:
* Player with the most recruits who join wins.
* To qualify a recruit must:
• Attend by the last weekend of the months 3 months before our coronation.
• Attend the main CB field at least once per month for those three months.
• Have their own gear (minimum 1 weapon and battlefield garb) by the weekend before coronation.
• Must not have played Amtgard at any location within the past year. (NO POACHING!)
Prize for the winner: Custom weapon or other gear of the winner’s choice (within reason and shire funds).
• Vote: Adjusting our reign dates to reflect a more “summer” and “winter” reign.
o March & September (Will conflict with GV Coronation) 0
o April & October 0 Votes
o May & November *** My recommendation. 7 Votes
o June & December (Will conflict with Great Eastern and GV Winter Midreign) 0 Votes
o Leave it January and July 0 Votes
Our Month of Crown will be in April and October with the coronation event at the end of the month, beginning of May/November.
• Vote: Seeking sponsor ship.
o What group to consider sponsorship
* GV Sponsorship 7
* RW Sponsorship 0
* CG Sponsorship 0
o Should we seek sponsorship
* Yes 6
* No 1
We will be seeking sponsorship by Goldenvale as soon as the paperwork needed is available.
Regent Business:
• GV is doing several competitions for A&S. One is a competition for groups (2+ people) working on the same project. We are eligible (regardless of the sponsorship vote) but we’d have to enter into one of the qualifier competitions to get into the finals at Fury. Details forth coming.
• GV is also doing an A&S trade at GE. Basic run down: Caerbannog makes two items and donates them. In return they get one item from one of the other groups. One item from each group goes into a raffle containing one item from each group. The idea is to connect to the other GV groups, since the theme for this reign is re-connecting as a kingdom. We probably only want to do this if we are sponsored by GV.
Chancellor Business:
• We still have no Chancellor. If anyone wants the job, talk to me later about what it entails. You must be over 18 and must be or become reeve certified.
• Current treasury: $52.00
Champion Business:

Populace Business:
• Springfield VT is doing a Steampunk Festival 11-13 September and would like Amtgard to come. Maybe demo? Definately a chance to recruit!
Upcoming Events:

• 22-25 May Great Eastern @ Ye Olde Commons in Charlton MA.
