Officers' Reports

Baron and Baroness: Thank you from the K&Q for the donation to the trailer
fund. Several quotes for screen-printing of tabards, these vary in price and some

seems to be best deal. RF 1st meeting and college council meeting went well.

Seneschal re filming on the mainland.

Championship. This was discussed at length. Will keep current feedback system
with one overall mark that rates the item (no 1st, 2nd, 3rd). Will bring on line for
new year's competition. Suggest better timing for events: Yule (June / July), St
Jude's (Nov), Anniversary (March). Topics are:
Yule 2000: hats, dance, desserts
St Jude's 2000: archery equipment, camping equipment, story telling
Anniversary 2001: heraldic display, research paper, and cosmetics
