Greetings, Nottinghill Coill!

We hope that everyone who was able to attend War of the Wings had as wonderful a time as we did, and I know that our thanks to Lord Brandon and the crew of the Sea Wolf  for the wonderful job of organizing our Baronial encampment are echoed by many.

The Canton of Cyddlain Downs has stepped forward to plan and organize next year's encampment.  We hope that everyone will feel that they can contribute to making our encampment bigger and better every year.

We look forward to seeing everyone at the Baronial Collegium in November, and Yule Toy Tourney in December.  
Yours in Service,
Baron Geldamar and Baroness Etain
