College of St Cecilia – Hugh: Low attendance at regular meetings due to Mid Year break. The College attended Inter College War (I.C.W.) and the college came second in the standings. Soon to apply for a grant to the university to buy some Helmets to start fighter training at college. Therein followed a discussion of disposal of assets should the College again become dormant. St Barts example was that the assets went to Stormhold. Hanbal suggested that we ask Former Cairn Fell if they have any armour left over to donate to the College.

Good evening Rodrigo

In planning for tomorrow evenings Baronial Meeting (Stormhold), please find attached a copy of the summary document from the recent online poll that I ran (for discussion at the meeting).

I have cc’d to B&B Stormhold & Krae Glas, Knights Marshal Stormhold & KG and also Seneschal KG.

I believe there are some interesting facts to be learned from this.

Regards

(Report separately available at meeting)

Baron KG

Dear All,

This document is a rough attempt at forming a charter for future Suth Moot Events. It was a collaboration of both B&B’s of Krae Glas and Stormhold along with the Seneschal of Krae Glas. We welcome your thoughts and feedback on this document. We anticipate holding a joint meeting at the next Stormhold Monthly Bash to ratify it. We hope that you can attend.

Regards,
Baron Gilbert Purchase

We haven’t had any new authorisations.
