The Defender?s cloak requires cleaning. After some discussion, it was decided to buy a zippered storage bag for it and get an assessment on the cost of dry cleaning it.
The Baron mentioned that the Baronial cloaks also required cleaning, and it was decided that this could be covered from the Baronial $100 fund.
Alina reminded everyone that quarterly reports are due by April 15, or May 1st for the Exchequer and Herald, please send a copy to the Seneschal when you send them.
Exchequer
Reann told the council that Seagirt?s books were been reviewed by Tir Righ?s Exchequer and we must keep better track of Seagirt?s property. Batu, deputy exchequer, will inventory all good he has at his home. Everyone else holding Seagirt property must inventory it and post it on the web site. If they don?t wish to do this they must give it to Batu.

Heraldry went well at Daffodil. Several people have had their names and devices passed. The second populace badge was returned for lack of contrast. We can redraw and resubmit it. New drawing will be done for next council.

A&S is being well attended. We did a calligraphy class with Iago and we have done a coif class. Chain Mail is planned for next Wednesday night. Lenora needs to have George?s device charted so she can begin work on it.

Dance
Going well. Spent $127.20 Pass the hat brought in $137.35. Anastasia made matching dance tunics for Daffodil. Would we like to keep the for Seagirt. It was the general consensus that we pay the $50.65 for the cost of the tunics and they will become part of our regalia.
Report enclosed.
Baron & Baroness
Please make recommendations, we are not getting people recognized because we can?t be everywhere. We enjoyed Daffodil and the court went well. In order to make things run smoothly and to share the effort to make it happen, we need more people to volunteer an hour or two of their time to help.
Other Business
Daffodil:
James Llewellyn the autocrat reported that we made a profit of between $500 and $600. The event went fairly well. We did some things differently this year and what worked and what didn?t was well analyzed at the post mortem. Many people liked the layout of the tourney hall this year. We may use the bleachers next year. The Buffet had a lot of food, but we need more service stations, people to man them and heating equipment.
The attendance was 21 children, 10 youths, 8 complimentary and 254 adults for a total of 293. There were some problems with gate and it would be a good idea to have a gate seminar before next year. There was good feedback and the Bar being in the main hall was appreciated and dancing on the stage was really well received.
We had to pay $53.00 damage for tacks put into the wall to hold up the Seagirt tapestry and banners. If they hadn?t been ready to paint it could have been more. We will find alternative methods for displaying them.
Sealion:
Ming the autocrat would like to know if Anna Jane would like to be head herald or if she would like to appoint someone to volunteer. Copy for the event will appear in the June Crier and the Sentinel. We are always open for ore volunteers.
Event Bids:
Theocharista offered an event proposal for next Daffodil. It needs to be offered up for bids and she was asked to resubmit the bid next month.
NSCA:
There has been a discrepancy in the finances and they are being investigated by the proper authorities. The fees have increased to $10.00 due to insurance increases.
