Message from the Tyger Clerk of the Signet

Greetings, everyone.

As mentioned in the recent copy of the Pikestaff, the Policies for the Tyger Clerk of the Signet and our webpage have recently undergone some changes.

The old website will soon begin redirecting to the new one. This page may still undergo some aesthetic tweaks here and there over the years, however, due credit goes to Isabel Chamberlain for switching us over from the old format (Joomla) to the new format in WordPress.

Updated policies may be found on the new website also. These policies are available in a downloadable PDF on the site, and all scribes are asked to please read these new policies over and adhere to them. Please feel free to direct any inquiries or suggestions about the new policies to the Tyger Clerk of the Signet; these policies are not “written in stone”, but a living document, which I expect will change according to our needs for a while to come.

Yours in Service,
Kayleigh

Greetings unto the populace of the East Kingdom,

queen-favor-kienaTheir Highnesses wish to travel to many events during the reign and are therefore in need of many favors to aid in representing the East Kingdom abroad, as well as to recognize the populace of the East within our own boundaries.  Any and all who wish to make favors for Her Highness are welcome, regardless of skill level or experience.

For those gentles who wish to aid in the making of HRH Kiena’s favors, the link to the instructions can be found here:

http://eastkingdom.org/pdf/KienasFavorDoc2.pdf

The favors are the same design as Her Highness’s previous reign, a navy K with a thistle with purple flower and green stem.  Favors may be rendered in any medium you wish (embroidery, painting, beading, etc).  If you wish to add something small to the design to denote the second reign feel free to do so however you wish, but it is not required.

Favor kits are available to anyone who wishes to help with the creation of favors.  Some kits will be available at Coronation for those who are interested, or contact the favor coordinator at alannaofskye@yahoo.com.  Thank you for your help!

In service,
Alanna

Lady Elysabeth Underhill, East Kingdom University Chancellor, is pleased to announce a new resource on the East Kingdom University website.
The home page of the website now contains a list of events throughout the kingdom that are holding A&S classes. Please note that these are not EKU events, but events with classes hosted by local groups.

The EKU staff will try to keep this list updated throughout the year.  It is hoped that this list could be useful for those looking to learn a specific skill, or for teachers who may want to get some practice delivering their class before Pennsic!

If  there is an event not listed that should be, please contact the EKU’s webminister, Norana Cantrell
