Event Recap: The Words of the Autocrats

Provided by Lady Diana de Blyth and Lady Nalka um Jafna: “The day went well. We started at 9 am with the social room and classes starting at 10 am. We had a significant number of people show up in the social room beforehand; from the reports I got from the teachers, we had a strong participation in the classrooms throughout the day. So, our assumption of leaving the rooms open so people were able to come and go from the class seemed to work well. From the report that Mistress Sabine (one of the instructors) gave, about the time she finished the first set of instructions with one group, a new group had come in and so she was teaching all day. Almost all classrooms were left open later than intended to allow people to chat while they finished their projects. While I think that was difficult for our teachers, I think it meant a lot more participation from the people who were at the event. From what I understood, the most significant attendee population was in the chainmail making and pavilion building. A lot of people went to those classes in particular, and they showed off their work on social media during and after the event. We collected a lot of pictures of people who had received class kits from the boxes and were showing off their finished products. We hosted a bardic and a chess competition. Those went over really well. We had an exciting number of people compete - our new chess champion is William duLoch and our new bardic champion is Isabelle de Picard. In regards to the Eternia Fundrasing boxes, all of our original 100 boxes were claimed. We had 25 additional boxes that were given to some of our newcomers in Enid, to the teachers, and to the drivers delivering boxes all over the kingdom. The donations totaled $3,065 and that total was delivered to the Will Rogers Boy Scout Camp in Cleveland, Oklahoma. The day of classes (Pavilion Making, Thread Wrapped Buttons, Chainmail Making, Illumination, and Naalbinding) went well and then we had virtual court. The “feast” was well attended, with roughly 40 participants. Everyone was in good spirits and chatted with each other in one large Zoom meeting. People who didn't participate in the zoom room for the feast posted pictures of their own feast on the event page and then there were people who were doing socially distanced and doing feasts in different areas. After Feast, we had our traditional dishwashing party via zoom that was well attended and went till 9pm. Over all, our boxes were well received and it was a really lovely day, we heard a lot of great feedback.
