<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The Populace of the Barony Marche of Debatable
Lands created a wondrous Crown Tournament on Saturday! We were somewhat
focused on the tournament and could not notice much of the service and
skill that all enjoyed, but we can try to thank those who directly
aided the Baron and Baroness on that day. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Thanks to Elss of Augsburg who retained in
Court.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Thanks to those who helped set up and take down our
pavillion and thrones: Elss, Maggie, Cynewyn, Clewin, Jorundr, Pavel, and those
we did not even see, as setup was completed before we even arrived.
</FONT></DIV>
