[Moo] Baronial Birthday - Please read

[Mark Valente]

In order to address as many concerns as possible I waited to read everyone else's opinion before I posted my own opinion.  I am also in favor of moving the date. I really do not want to keep the June date and watch the event tank just for being stubborn.  I don't think we should plan an event that we expect to loose money, this makes little sense.  
  I am also in favor of the 21st - 23rd if for no other reason than the site is available that weekend but not the weekends prior to that in July.  I am also against the 29th.  I do not think that 2 weeks before Pennsic will effect my ability to staff the event or attract fighters nearly as much as 1 week before land grab would.  I will not be able to guarantee that I can get enough help on the weekend of the 29th.  I would also like to be able to get myself ready for Pennsic the weekend of the 29th.
  As far as marshalls, we have Lord Stefan, and hopefully Baron Turgies will be able to attend the later date as well. I will look into increasing the number of marshalls once I have a definite date.

Of course, we have to have a couple of marshalls to help with authorizations, but that could be arranged !
