Sofia Mrika von Trifels

Seneschal:

First of all I wanted to let you all now first of all that I am releasing Katerina as my contingency deputy and am taking on Tomas in that roll.  So the seneschalet office will look like this:

Seneschal (till August 2010) Thora Golvik

Contingency Tomas

Information and Stats Clerk Mayrin (sp?)

Exchequer:

Sebastine, who has done an amazing job as Exchequer needs to find someone to be a contingency deputy.  If anyone has an interest in this area that you know of, get them in touch.

Also the office of Chamberlain is accepting applications!  Thank you to Donatello for your time spent in this.  We are sorry to see you step down.

Largess Deputy is Elspeth who I wipe clean of largess at Bard in November, so she will be needing more stuff again.  I promise to get you some stuff too!

Chronicler:

Danika has been working for the last two years on Chroniclers Office.  She has kept things going well in that area, working with Tomas as Web Master on the History of our Champions and Officers (there are still information need on these BTW), and getting the minutes and policies more accessible.

Tomas has brought us a new web page in the last year and the new old forum back.  He is looking for a deputy too.

Arts and Sciences:

Sofia has been busy tracking down the happenings in the Arts and Sciences communities.  There have been some great competitions at events and she is working hard with her deputies on keeping thing going and bringing in new things as well.

Azzah, even though she has moved out of the area, has worked in a never ending way with dance practices in Chilliwack.

Elspeth, shire scribe, has been working with (or rather as a part of ) both Principality and Kingdom now in bring charters to our painters and helping get people co-ordinated with teachers and with new scroll assignments.

Wulfstan, Lionsdale Bardic Champion, is finding out what it is like to wear more than one hat at a time.  For the First time we see the Champion reporting to the appropriate officer with his efforts to bring more bardic prosuits to the area.

Chatelaine:

We have been without a chatelaine for a very long time.  We are so pleased then to have Safiye take the office.  And I know as there is much to be done that she would welcome helpers too. So once again pass the word around.

Gold Key office is open and accepting applications.  Elora, thank you so much for all your time that you have put in as well.

Pied Piper Office is accepting applications, but I have one person who has now applied and I will be bringing her before council this month.  Thank you to Wulfstan for holding this office and creating fun things for our children to do at events.

Herald’s:

This year we saw a new officer named to this office.  Wulfstan, thank you for taking on this job.  And again if you know of people who are interested in Heraldry at all….

Stables:

Savaric has stepped up into the office rescently.  Right now he is a lone ranger and I think that anyone interested in Marshalling, Archery, Rapier, Heavey, War, Practices, or anything eles that goes with this office should be in touch with him!
