<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Greetings Good Gentles of the Barony
Marche!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We have volunteered to guard the Kingdom Gate at
Aethelmearc Royal for a day as is our Barony's tradition. The day that has
been chosen is the middle Sunday of War, August 5th. (We also have Opening
Ceremonies that morning and hold our Baronial Reception and Court at AE
Royal that night.) We need people to volunteer for one hour shifts that
day from 10-7pm (the earliest shift of 9-10am is taken already as well as a few
others). This is a fun yet important service that generally involves
holding a weapon of your choice (or one provided by us if you need) while
standing just under the AE Gate's tent out of the sun. Anyone can do it and you
can volunteer with a partner if you prefer to guard together. Please give
our Kingdom an hour of your time this Pennsic and have fun doing it!
Contact us to be put on the schedule at <A
href="mailto:caram@pitt.edu">caram@pitt.edu</A> or 724 933 4661. Thank you
and good luck in Pennsic preparations!</FONT></DIV>
