Etain (Herald):
- All submissions are progressing nicely
- Heraldic duties at Coronation went well, without issue
Webwright (Aveline):
- -The account details for the Instagram account have been sent to me by the previous Baroness and emails from Instagram are coming to the Web account. I look forward to the discussion of a social media officer continuing in the Council meeting as I firmly believe that this is a role best held by someone physically located within the bounds of Ildhafn and who is able to attend Ildhafn events. I hold these in trust until a Social Media officer has been determined.
- A development Wordpress site has been set up by the kingdom Web officer and Masonry. I've had access for a week, unfortunately the press of my mundane duties has consumed my 'free' time and I do not anticipate being able to look further into this until next week. I anticipate providing a report to Council for next month's meeting.
- The Baronial email address has been redirected and images of her Excellency added to the contacts page. I eagerly await similar images of his Excellency to complete that section.
Chatelaine (Giacoma):
- A few newcomers expressing interest in Summer Event
- No current requests for Gold Key for SUmmer Event
Chronicler (Elyna):
- Currently working on Spring edition for Coronation
- Discussing with Giacoma around best way to split main/deputy role
- Past Events
Workshop Weekends
- Have been very successful. Agreed to start up again in February. 2 day format works well
- Domenego discussed that fencing proposal is to move to a gold coin donation by users, and Ildhafn to make up the difference for hire. Committee agreed that this was a good model, as amount does not dissuade newcomers.
Motion: The cost for weekend workshops in 2023 will be set as a gold coin donation, with Ildhafn to make up any losses for hall hire. Moved by Christine, Seconded by Alex. Passed unanimously.
