[Moo] Fund Raiser for Breast Cancer

[Nikolai]

Good Gentles -

Her Excellency, Baroness Ursula has asked her Rapier Champion to fight in the Charity Tournament at Ymir this year.  I have most humbly accepted her gracious request, and will head south in the coming month to do battle with the villains, ummm, champions from the other Baronies, Cantons, and even his most magnificent Majesty, Ragnarr. The entry fee for the tournament is a donation to help fight breast cancer. This is a very worthy endeavour on the part of the Free Scholars of Atlantia's Acadamie d'Espee, and one I wholeheartedly support (despite some infidel's assertion that I have no heart)! 

To this end, I would request that you donate what you can this weekend at the Investiture of our new Baron and Baroness. Cash donations will be accepted, and checks are welcome as well, and should be made out to  "The American Breast Cancer Foundation".   To start things off, I pledge $50 to this cause. This covers the nominal entry fee requested, so the Barony will be represented regardless. Everything beyond this will show how supportive our populace is of worthwhile charities.  It think that this is a positive trend in the SCA, and I hope to see more of it. I will discuss with their Excellencies the best way to collect donations at the event. Perhaps a passing of the hat at court and feast. Every dollar helps.

K vasheem oosloogam (at your service),

Nikolai the Gimpy but Willing
