((snipped and pasted here so I can make sure all involved know how much their help is appreciated))

Thank you everyone for once again making this a memorable and fun occasion of so many friends gathering.

First off...though I appreciate the kind words about me it makes me feel a little uncomfortable because there are a few key people that are the real cog in the machine of such awesome events.

You all know Sabina right? Sabina is the one who gathers all the information of who is doing what and when, what prizes we have to offer, all details and changes and then kindly reminds me a dozen or so times to open up my excel and its all right there when I ask...a dozen or so times *blushes* Then the day of such festivals when things get off to a rough start..as they often do and I cant type enough to keep my wits about me, Sabina steps in and says, "sure I'll do the archery contest or I've got this done or I'll take care of this.." Its endless. So as much as Sabina likes being the person behind the curtain...I Dorothy, hereby declare you the ring leader of Oz and reveal you to all. *smiles*

Landric. You may not know Landric as well but he is my dearest friend and all details organized before and during were done with his help from marking 20+ runebooks and preparing bag deco entries to helping with the game show. But nothing compares to during the festival when we're in voice and he alone hears me try to gather my thoughts and gets me to laugh and relax as he runs off to offer a gate or takes care of one of the many things forgotten.

Festival Tailor. Ok, I wont give you up but thank you for not only stitching up all the staff outfits but then at the very last minute snipping some tshirts for everyone else to enjoy. This time we tried something different and that was offer a variety of choices but in the same color so you could personalize your look. Note to self: friending everyone to your packies to do this makes for one very confused packhorse!

Ok bringing my heartfelt appreciation to a close I want you to know who hosted these great events for you:

The amazing decorations continued with Xenom's immense imagination and style. He had help from Queen Mum in creating the park and everything else decorative you saw.

Archery was substituted by Sabina and Branwilde, with Ladies Mab and Tia doing bag decorations, Rhiannon hosting the craft expo, Seva & Anna Wallis with Dad hosting the fishing expo, and Genie doing the stealables in town and Landric doing the city of the dead. Windsong and Genie took care of all the food at the BBQ as well as Windsong and her friends doing the popular taming expo. Athena offered help taming too and found many a reptalon chewing on her skirt hem!

Lady Wysteria and her guild hosted an awesome dungeon race while Salmar and Soth did some fun Cow Tipping. Leopold took everyone on an adventurous treasure hunt while Dennar, Genie and Nathan with help from Tia and some others tossed out what sounded like over 600 nets?? Am I right? *laughs*
Lady Merlynne brought everyone to the Yew Race track and hosted ferret/squirrel/critter races that made Seva at least very happy and I'm sure many more.

We wrapped up the evening with Kaylor hosting the creative costume contest and then Athena and Landric assisting the game show. Merlynna was the all around gal helping and gating as was Lord Sontaro offering whatever assistance was needed. Raven and TheFly had tamed pets earlier in the week as back up if needed and Dennar provided the fireworks for all to enjoy.

So there you have it and for anyone that possibly wore our staff outfits not mentioned here please know that my brain is on overdrive with appreciation and I reserve the right to add to this list later *grins*

Now how about a few pics?
(I never get the game show and I lost my pics of Windsongs taming and the park created somehow)
