  • Saturday in the Park in Sven Demo: The demo brought some folks from the area.
    32 SCA people went through gate. Sarah Pixie had folks who signed the kid fighting waivers.
    People who came looking for us, were going to find us again and about 1/3 of folks who walked through may show up again.
  • Still don’t have a rapier new champion.
  • Website:  converted to WordPress, looking for email address concealer. All of the old files are still on the server in case they are needed for any recovery in the future. Discussion ensued about how emails work with the ISP and a workgroup will happen to check email addresses for the canton. [Update: forwards are now updated and (hopefully) working properly, and the Canton Google Calendar has been recovered.]
