Greetings!

I would first like to thank the Master Chirurgeons of the Midrealm who attended the master Chirurgeon meeting at Crown. We accomplished what I wanted to and more. Also thank you to everyone who reported for the second quarter.

EVENT REPORTS, EVENT REPORTS, EVENT REPORTS, EVENT REPORTS!!!!! I cannot say it enough. I am in need of event reports. For a Kingdom that is as large as this one and that holds as many events as we do I get very few event reports. I would ask that we please make sure that events reports are filed. I cannot tell you the number of times that someone says "Oh at event A I was helped by a Chirurgeon and they did a great job.", I'd love to pass the message on but I have no idea who was CiC or even working the event.

Pennsic is rapidly approaching and don't forget to drop by Chirurgeon's point to sign in and then sign up for a shirt. Don't forget to make sure that you take your certifications with you to Pennsic, you'll need them when you sign in.

Also there will be a blood drive at Pennsic this year. It will be held at Mt. Zion Church which is right beside the campground - it will be connected to the wagon for the days of the drive. The blood drive will be held from 10am to 4pm on Friday, August 8th and Monday August 11th. If you would like information before Pennsic regarding the Blood Drive please contact Lady Angelique Michele d'Herisson at scahedgehog@aol.com.

I am always open to suggestions and to talk regarding concerns. I will be attending Warriors and Warlords (MN) and the Rose Tourney (MI) in July and Pennsic War in August.

Take Care,
Tatiana
