<div>On Wednesday, Jan 2nd and Sunday, Jan 6th. The Wednesday meeting will be at the Manassas Central Library as usual. I still need to confirm a location for the travelling meeting.</div>

<div>This month, we'll be talking about setting new goals for the barony in the coming year. This will be in keeping with the challenge issued this month to all groups by our Kingdom Seneschal. (You do read the letters from your kingdom officers in the Acorn, right?) It is particularly appropriate for this barony with our incoming Coronets! So do try to attend and bring your creative ideas with you.
