Seneschal of the Silver Desert
Agincourt Oct. 22nd
Thank you to everyone who came out and to all the visitors from the Sacramento area and beyond that came to play. We had a really wonderful time. Thank you to Amaryllis and Theresa for organizing the breakfast and to all who helped them (I saw Saxi cooking up pancakes.). We walked miles today, but the duck was finally hit, the crown knocked from the Royalty's head, The knight shot through the eye slot; and we had much laughter. We had 28 Adult attendees and three youth.
The donations brought in were $85. Thank you for giving generously. Final tally will be done after I get the receipts for reimbursement, but our rough on the field count is a cost for breakfast of about $50.
The victor for the day was Seamus of the Silver Desert With two wins and a third.
Until next year!
Lady Africa, the Agincourt Autocrat.
