• Yesterday I had the pleasure of being the autocrat for Coronation. Without the help of all of my shire friends the event could not have been such a success. Some have told me that all you need for a successful coronation is for one crown to have the opportunity to step down and another to step up, and though technically this is true there is something to be said for the people who spend countless hours of their time making sure it all runs smoothly. So I want to thank a few people.

> My gate coordinator Duncan (Brian) who made sure that everything at gate was scheduled and ready to go. You are all your workers did a great job. Thank you! [[1]], [[2]], [[3]], [[4]], [[5]], and Alice > Elianor ([[6]]) Inn was amazing! Your workers, precooking! Countless hours shopping and planning. It all paid off. I couldn’t even begin to name all of your helpers! But I do know that Zach and Meredith worked their butts off helping you. > Gabbie!!! ([[7]]) that feast! So delicious and pretty! Again countless hours shopping, planning and precooking. Along with making sure I didn’t forget anything. > Alvira ([[8]]) thank you to you and your crew for children’s activities, precooking, washing all the dishes and generally being everywhere. > [Lieurance Hrefna], getting the direction signs out and hosting post revel. You are wonderful! > [[9]] for bringing your crew to set up the beautiful chapel for the Rose ceremony. You are so wonderful and added so much to the day. > All the people I have already mentioned also helped with set up and tear down and more. Anna, Robert, Hoyen, Severin, Drake, and everyone else. Thank you for making such a great event happen and making me look good! > Congratulations to TRM! Calontir! > YIS, > Catalina >
