The benchmaking party scheduled for 4/14 is delayed pending actual spring. Can’t stain/poly benches until it’s reliably above 50 degrees.

We had a very productive work party on April 8th for the EK Royal improvement projects. Cheryl Grieco, Leslie Birt, Dee van Eyck, Jeanne McCarron, Matt Cross and I worked on benches while Katelin Pratt finished painting tent dags. Silver Scorpion and Barren Sands are done. Caer Adamant now has properly yellow laurel wreaths. The 3 burner kitchen stove donated by Christiana Sunshine-Longway also arrived, so we have TWO large Camp Chef stoves for the kitchen. Not only will that make large royal functions easier to cook, but that means a cooking class in the State Kitchen could have 6 students working at once!

The next EK Royal project work parties are set for April 8th and April 14th, in Mason NH. We’ll start on cutting and sanding parts for the dozen benches in the Queen’s Garden on the 8th at 9am and continue on the 14th if necessary. No woodworking experience required; if you can follow directions we can use your help.
We’re just an hour north of Worcester, MA – if you’re staying in the area for Coronation anyway come on over and work on benches for a few hours before heading home! It’ll be fun – just ask the dag painting crew!
Email Eleanor at pennsic.steward@eastkingdom.org for directions and details.

Gate Pavilion Work Day 2 was a resounding success! The painters, Reidan Fredstrom, Diane Dooley, Karen Tatro, Katelin Pratt, Christine Schlupf and Patricia Cross finished the following dags:
Shire of Blak Rose, Northern Army, Shire of Caer Adamant, Shire of Coil Tuar, House Grog, Canton of Whyte Whey, Shire of Buckland Cross, House Silverwing, Shire of Hadchester, Shire of Montevale and House Thanet.
The previously completed dags were:
Stormguard, House Three Skulls, Shire of Midland Vale, Riding of Giggleswick, Riding of Ravensbridge, House Fulton, House Strangewayes, Shire of Quintavia, and Shire of Owlsherst.
This completes the gate pavilion, except for House Silver Scorpion who gets an extension on their art submission due to being super busy as King & Queen.
