Greetings to the populace of Stormhold and surrounds.

We would just like to say thank you to everyone who has participated within the Barony and surrounds since we stepped up as Baron & Baroness in July this year.
You have all made us feel very welcome in these new roles and have been most willing to assist when needed, whether it be big or small.

And completing things nicely, the year finished on a high - with (as an oldtimer of Stormhold was heard to say) ".. one of the best William Marshal's in some years!" And was followed by an excellent day in the sun on the Sunday, with lots of archery & rapier (and we now have new moving targets stored in the Armoury).

Greetings populace

We hope you are all well with plans under way for the coming festive season.

We had an excellent attendance at the November Monthly Bash, with 6 combatants contending the Heavy Tournament, with victory going to our Southern Duke, Sir Siridean.
We also had 4 combatants for the Rapier tournament, which Sir Siridean, as Earl Marshal, kindly supervised as Marshal, with a newcomer to the Barony, Connor, winning the day.

Greetings to the populace of Stormhold, including our Canton of Cairnfiel and our College of St Bartholemew (& our neighbours)

Well - we enter into interesting times.

Champions
Last month we saw our Championship tournaments - all were well contested, with our champions decided as follow:

Baron Rodrigo of Abbotsford - Infantry Combat Champion

Unto the Barony of Stormhold, and the Shires of Krae Glas, Arrowsreach and Borderscros does Gabriel and Constanzia, King and Queen of Lochac send greetings.

We wish to thank everyone who attended our visit on the weekend for the William Marshall Tournament and Feast.

Words from the Baron and Baroness

May A.S.XLIII (May 2008)

We've just come home from the Investiture of Innilgard's newest Baron and Baroness, Aylwin and Ingereth. It was lovely to see so many Stormholders wayfaring, meeting new people and having a good time.

Our thanks to the people who came to the demo at the State Library Medieval Fair Day, we've received some good advertising and are likely to see more new faces as people come to check us out. Please remember to make them feel welcome.

We are really pleased to see people taking on tasks and activities. Our thanks this month to Madelina who is organising dancing, and Fridr who arranged the potluck for our New Year Celebration. Also, we will be having a Midwinter Event! Thanks to Rauf and Ava for taking on this task - look out for more information is this Stormscroll.
