Comments and Impressions:

I would like the thank everyone who came and enjoyed our lovely event! last year we started with a small event called the games people play I found it so fun that my brain started turning and I'm like let's do an event surrounded all around a feast. started talking to others and it became cook and Combat Mayhem. then I'm like why not let's add a cooking competition and we'll the very brief blah blah blah leads us here today where I am so greatful for so many things.

Again I would like to thank their royal Majesties and their highnesses for coming to our event. I would like to also thank all the populous who joined our event and supported our Shire and one of our kingdoms event way up north. I would also like to thank Our Northshield neighbors who crossed the lines to join in the combat.

I would like to give a huge thank to all the people who helped and worked behind the scenes to make this possible. a huge thank you goes out to [Jory] and hans for all the beautifulness of the feast hall as well as the shades and tent for the royals; and being a rock for me and calming me down when i would get frazzled. thank you Jo Goodwin and all your crew for the beautiful feast it was so yummy. thank you Dirk MacMartin for helping with shades where needed and your vocal skills to announce when things were happening. I would also like to thank all the teachers who taught classes and all the combat side of things I hope you all had a great time and enjoyed yourselves thank you and thank you to all the competitors of the iron chef!

Last and definitely not least thank you [Menachem] for agreeing to be co autocrat and being an awesome co autocrat. here's to our next adventure!
