Unbelted Champions before the fight

Unbelted champions of the East took to the field at Pennsic to face off against the unbelted champions of the Mid.  “All members of the unbelted champions team trained incredibly hard to prepare themselves as well as they might for Pennsic”, said Prince Kenric. “The teamwork, dedication, and heart shown by the entire team, as well as those who were not chosen was an inspiration to me. I will look back on this summer and remember it.”

In the end, the Midrealm won this war point.  “We felt we put a great team together for this battle, but so did the Midrealm,” said King Gregor.  “They had a good plan, the personnel to execute it and I think they got us to commit to the fight they wanted.  In the end, our hammer broke on their anvil. The Eastern Unbelts fought their hearts out though and are already planning for next year. I’m proud of all of them.”

The following is a list of the unbelted champions and a video of the combat.  The war point was won by the Midrealm.  The video was provided by Captain Devon of Ayr of the Midrealm.  All photos by Baroness Rainillt Leia de Bello Marisco. (more…)

Electronic Newsletters a Year Later

August 18, 2013 by East Kingdom Gazette

It’s been more than a year since kingdom newsletter began to be distributed electronically. Many people have adopted them enthusiastically, but it’s still a challenge for some. While the option to receive a printed newsletter remains available, it is seen as prohibitively expensive, or simply not a good value for their dollars by some members.

The cost of a sustaining membership currently stands at $45 per year. Adding a printed copy of the kingdom newsletter will raise that an additional $35, bringing the total to $80 per year. Predictably many people have decided the electronic newsletter is sufficient.

The July publication statistics report, made available to the Kingdom Chroniclers, shows just under 1200 individual downloads for the East, as compared to a total of approximately 400 paper copies still being sent out.
