At the East Kingdom 50 Year Order of High Merit meeting, Their
Highnesses encouraged the Orders to organize and hold their own Order
meetings.

To that end, I did a survey of best times on the Silver Crescent
Discussion List and came up with the time of Sunday, August 5, 2018,
from 1 pm to 2 pm at the meeting tent in East Kingdom Royal for an
Order of the Silver Crescent Meeting.

Agenda:
1. A welcome for new Order members.
2. Hopefully Their Highnesses will have Their first poll issued before
then so we can discuss the candidates; if not, we’ll skip this part
until the next meeting which someone else will arrange.
3. Suggestions of potential pollees and individual queries about
dependents (if any).
4. General Discussion, including any standards, reminders, announcements, etc.

There are whole lot of Companions of this Order and I’m hoping I get a
chance to meet many of you I don’t already know at this time.

Thank you.

The Society College of Arms runs on monthly cycles and letters. Each month, the College processes name and armory submissions from all of the Kingdoms. Final decisions on submissions are made at the monthly meetings of the Pelican Queen of Arms (names) and the Wreath King of Arms (armory). Pelican and Wreath then write up their decisions in a Letter of Acceptances and Return (LoAR). After review and proofreading, LoARs generally are released two months after the meeting where the decisions are made.

An “acceptance” indicates that the item(s) listed are now registered with the Society. A “return” indicates that the item is returned to the submitter for additional work. Most items are registered without comments. Sometimes, the LoAR will address specific issues about the name or armory or will praise the submitter/herald on putting together a very nice historically accurate item.

The following results are from the April 2018 Wreath and Pelican meetings. Continue reading →
