Senechal is stepping down (boo). Lady Cassandra has nominated herself, are there questions for her?
How long in the SCA? 24ish years
What do you do? Artsy things in the SCA, run a small business and formerly an Executive Assistant
Do you have a gavel? I will!
More diplomatic that the current one!
Questions from the Populace
How can you improve “barony life”? Continue to push people for more events, trying to pull in new people, not just rely on college students
You are fond of the barony, but why? I started in Carolingia and when I left, the culture was “different” and I missed our culture. Also missed the “post thing beer” where people get to hang out and meet other people socially outside their interests
Her Excellency – do you have good stress management? I have been in customer service. I know what is actually a life-or-death emergency, despite the emotions of people involved
yay!
Election for Senechal is a great council vote, if you’re an officer you get to vote. Will be next council, Jan-7, possibly here
