Letter from the Senseschal
Good Gentles of Caer Mear, Greetings from the Seneschal:
Summer has come to an end and the Winds of Autumn are blowing. They
drive us into our homes and give notice of the coming winter. And so we
prepare for feasts and fellowship.
Soon approaches our annual gathering of Yule. Please join us on Sun-
day, December 11th for this year’s celebration of family and friends. Lord
Henricus has planned what will undoubtedly be an excellent afternoon
and evening.
This winter will also be a time for us to reflect on the direction our Barony
will take in the coming years. Yes, we must again advise Their Majesties
and Their Highnesses on whom we feel will best represent Them as
Baronage of Caer Mear.
Candidates have come forward and I have sought the advice of the
Atlantian Royals. To ensure that your voice is heard, you should verify
that the Society has your correct address and that your membership is
up to date. You must be a paid member of the SCA in order to receive a
polling letter per Kingdom Law.
To this end, we have proposed to The Royals that our investiture be held
at Ruby Joust VI. However, we are in need of an event steward for Ruby
Joust. If you have thought about running the event or are planning to
submit a bid, please let me know. Help will be provided to any who need
help with the event proposal or what do to.
Thank you all for your continued support of our great Barony. Have a safe
and happy holiday season.
Yours In Service,
Lord Hjörr Guðmundson
Seneschal, Barony of Caer Mear
