al-Hadid, Magdalena. Officer’s reports: Elections Seneschal: We have two positions open, we'll open with elections. MOAS: any other nominations? No. Nominations closed. Since there are no other candidates, voting is not necessary and Elenora is accepted as MOAS. Seneschal: any other nominations? No. Nominations closed. No other candidates having stepped forward, Lord William Graham is ratified as Seneschal. Herald - there are no viable candidates for the position. The position remains open at this time. Since we have the required officers we believe this will be acceptable to kingdom. Chronicler - has resigned due to moving out of the canton borders and mundane claims on her time. She and her fantastic newsletter will be missed. Suba motions to open nominations. Lord William second. Lord William nominates Bilgisayar, Suba seconds. Bilgisayar accepts the nomination.

Elenora would like to step back from the Chatelaine duties in order to properly
attend to MOAS duties. Magdalena - there has been no activitiy at all in
recent months. Duties include demos, gold key, and reports as required. Suba
Exchequer Waiting for proposals for events so we can have a proposed budget. Financial dinations to the canton are tax deductible - receipts will be issued for any donations . A check was cut for Keegan regarding the gate donated to the barony for Pennsic - Fiona will follow up to be sure it was mailed to him. Chatelaine Outgoing Chatelaine: Nothing new since last month. No new contacts. Chatelaine will attend the baronial newcomers meeting. Contact Cal regarding preferred dates for newcomer meetings. Lord William: Reports are very very important. Even if there is nothing to report, a report must be sent. Looking for a report from Suba. Lord William - all officers: please send me copies of all reports when sent. Send to the Southern Regional deputy and/or Kingdom officer depending on that Kingdom officer's policy. Herald The position is currently empty. Working on Herald-at-Large status for Lord William Fitzwater. Mistress of Arts and Sciences Elenora the Tilemaker: will send in warranting. Webmistress Webpage is up. Officers page has changed a lot recently. If there are updates or corrections please let me know. Due to ownership issues, a new officers list will be started. Marshal of Fence There is no report from the Marshal at this time. Fencing practice has been suspended until further notice. Chronicler Position is currently empty.. Chamberlain Not present, no proxy. Presence of stuff is assumed. Special committees Finance Commitee Current members: Lord William, Fiona, and Deiniol. Approved Keegan's reimbursement and check has been cut. Finance committee needs to meet again to plan a budget for 2005. Event Committee We believe we need to have an event every year even though we are incipient and not a full-status canton. To get it in the April Pikestaff for an end-of-month event, we have to have a notice with a site in by February 25th. Regarding classes at an event - the EK brewer's guild wants a southern regional collegium in the spring. For a collegium, there should be no activities other than classes, which lets us off the hook for a big event. This would mean a dayboard and one track of classes only. Advertising outside of the SCA will be word-of-mouth only. We do already have a timeslot reseverd in the Southern Region for whichever weekend isn't crown, so we'd like to use that. All present are agreed that the canton would like to tackle the event. We are in agreement that at some point Lord William and Bilgisayar will contact Arasapha Farms regarding Beltaine in '06. First meeting: a sunday afternoon - since Jan 16th is out we will meet for about an hour on Sunday January 8th. Elenora has offered her house for the meeting and been accepted. Meeting time is set for 1:30. Old Business Last months motion to donate $50 to the baronial meeting site fee is still in front of the finance committee. Bilgisayar's proposal to the barony regarding pavilion will be $295 for canvas, add shipping, and make our own poles and ropes. Bilgisayar has a spreadsheet proposal that he will provide after talking to the barony and bring to the next meeting. New Business Dance practice - call for interest level within the canton yielded that at this time it's not as strong an interest. Therefore due to Suba assuming new responsibilities dance practice will be allowed to die out for the time being. Comments for the good of the Canton Next Canton Meeting is scheduled for Wednesday January 26th, 2004 at Elenora's house. Willian moved Bil second. Meeting Adjourned at 8:51 pm
