Beltaine 1997 comments

From Rutager
Hey, the event was pretty cool. Congrats to new he-man and honary fat guy Guthrum.The talent show flopped...oh well, net time you all should read the web page and know whats going on. It sure was great to hang with Comyan and hear his music (for those of you who were being drunk and loud at the mead tasting...HA HA, you missed it). Grimnear showed up...it was good to see him again as well as Conn and Katrina. I do have one suggestion for the Honor page...SIL!!!! Hey buddy you inspired and impressed me at the camp fire saturdey night. You are the best brewie(?) I can remember the clan having (Look for a gift from me at the next event). Well enough for now. As always, Rutager Garda-Waldands House Stormraven, fathful servant of the clan.

From Comyn
Hey now, thats not entirely fair. Even those of the clan who wereenjoying the mead tasting heard some of the tunes or they wouldnthave clapped so loud after some of them...Everybody goes to these events to have a good time, and I certainlydid! Thanks to Rutager for running a great tourney and keeping thepark police entertained! I am psyched to get myself some javelins and practice up! And also thanks to Rutager for the wonderful taleof mead and poetry. I think Ive heard him tell it before, but everytime I hear it, its like the first time.An open invitation to the entire clan to visit my song page at:www.fireresearch.com/comynSuggestions are welcome, submissions are preferred!

Greetings all! This Bealtaine was fantastic! I had a great time--well worth calling in 'cough, cough' sick. Thanks to Rutager for organizing the first annual He-Man games. They were a lot of fun to watch. Congratulations to all of the contestants and especially to the winner, Guthrum. Congratulations to Mainlia for successfully defending his title of Clann Champion. Thanks to Volund for the wonderful chicken and duck--I hope at the next event you will be able to join us sooner. We will have to think of something to make that will allow you to be at the site, instead of having to stay at home to cook. It was good to see Katrina, Rutager, Comyn, Sabha, and yes even Conn who provided much entertainment Friday night. I hope all will be able to attend the next event, whatever that may be. I also hope our friend Eberwolf (sorry if this is misspelled) for attending and bringing Debbie. After a little initial uneasiness, she was helpful and friendly. I hope to see her at more events. The clann coins came out pretty well and I am looking forward to the next minting. As soon as I get the pictures developed I will get them to Aonghus to be put on the web page. Slan Agat!!

Greetings again. I forgot to thank Mainlia for the fighting lessons he gave me Saturday. I hope to get some practice in so at the next event I might try a little informal sparring. I hope that in the future Mainlia and the other warriors of our clann will be willing and able to give lessons to others interested in fighting.
