Greetings Midrealm,
We hope you and your families are well rested from the winter holidays.
\We are aware of the concerns within the nation regarding the rising cases from the Covid- 19 variants. We are monitoring the case numbers within the Kingdom and have spoken to professionals regarding the realities of these. We share your concerns.
As we near the new year and the scheduled events, we ask each of you to make good decisions. Don’t attend an event if you don’t feel comfortable doing so. Don’t pressure others to attend an event . Don’t attend events because you feel pressured to do so, if you don’t feel comfortable attending. Events should be fun to attend, not scary. We will be following this guidance as well.
Event stewards and seneschals have the call on cancellations of events. We expect event staff and local officers to be aware of the Covid situation, and all other potentially unsafe situations, in the location of the event and act accordingly. Weather cancellations have happened, and we all stayed home to await a better time to travel. Pandemic related cancellations are no different.
We, The Crown, are planning to attend scheduled events for months to come. We are also planning to pay attention and make choices regarding our attendance for each event. If We don’t feel comfortable, we won’t attend. At this time, there is not a plan to cancel events for the entire Kingdom. However, the covid situation is being monitored and discussed by the Kingdoms officers. Who, with Us, fully support local officers/event stewards decisions to cancel individual activities and events.
We love and care for all of you, and are with you in being concerned and cautious. Please make good choices.
We remain in service to the Kingdom,
Ullr and AnneLyse
Monarchs
