Greetings voice heralds of the East Kingdom!

Baron Rowen Cloteworthy and Don Doroga Voronin are in need of voice heralds to help with the Ladies of the Rose Tourney at Pennsic. The Tourney will take place on the battlefield, Wednesday August 8, 2018. If you are interested please be at the battlefield at 8:30 a.m.

Baron Rowen Cloteworthy, is the current landed Baron of Bhakail, so look for the shiny Bhakail coronet (in the event you don’t know him). Don Doroga Veronin is currently Queen’s Champion of Arts & Science. For purposes of identification, he is quite tall with long black hair that he typically wears in a pony tail. Thank you to Brenden Crane we have a picture of them together!!

Image may contain: 1 person, smiling, standing, beard and outdoor

Are you interested in helping, but haven’t ever done voice heraldry? No worries, both of these men are great teachers and love sharing the joy of heraldry with others. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Baron Rowen Cloteworthy.

Many thanks in advance for your help!

Citizens and friends of the East Kingdom!

Please note that the East Kingdom’s Court at Pennsic will be in the East’s Royal Encampment on Tuesday, August 7th, at 6 pm.

When you arrive, we invite you to take a few minutes to see the new Vigil Chapel and Queen’s Garden and admire the upgraded facilities in the State Kitchen!

You are welcome to bring a picnic dinner to enjoy quietly during Court, and cold, non-alcoholic beverages will be available in the Hospitality tent throughout the evening.

Please be advised: while the Steward’s office has made a dozen benches and has rented some chairs for use in the Royal Encampment, these will be first come, first seated. Please consider bringing a chair or blanket for the ground for your comfort throughout Their Majesties’ busy docket.

In service to the East,

Lady Esnede O Muirrin made 100 of these lovely pilgrims badges for the volunteers who set-up and tear-down EK Royal at Pennsic!

2018 EK Royal Encampment set-up/tear-down pilgrim’s badges. Made by Lady Esnede O Muirrin, photo used with her permission.

Please join us for set up/tear down! It’ll be fun, you’ll get to be the first to see the fancy new stuff, and you get an exclusive “I was there” pin. I’m gonna put mine on my hat.

Companions of the Order of the Tygers Cub will be serving cold beverages to the work crews – any children old enough to work without direct parental supervision are invited to help them.

Set-up Start Times: Tues 7/31
Tygers Cubs: 9:45 am
Gate Pavilion: 10:00 am
State Kitchen: 10:00 am
Windwalls: 11:00 am
Vigil Chapel/Garden: 11:00 am
Hospitality: 12:00 pm

Tear-down Start Times: Friday, 8/10
State Kitchen: 11:00 am
Hospitality: 1:00 pm
Tygers Cubs: 1:45 pm
Everything else: 2:00 pm

My plan is to only need each volunteer to put in two hours or less. We’ve put a lot of effort in over the winter to streamline and optimize so it can all go up and come down very quickly with a good-sized crew. There are some small jobs that don’t require strength or the ability to stand for very long, especially in the State Kitchen, so don’t hesitate just because you’re not able to swing a hammer or carry a heavy box!

EKAWARDS_silvercrescent_color

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.
Mari Clock, Caer Adamant
