With Investiture out of the way it is time to turn our attention to Ice Dragon 2016. This year Ice Dragon is the weekend of April 2nd and while that might seem ages away it will come up on us fast. As most of you can guess (or know first hand) running Ice Dragon is no small task so we need your help! Currently the Autocrat is looking for help in all areas including but not limited to troll, merchant set up, runners, salon setup, general setup, and of course tear down. Its not back breaking work but the more hands we have the easier it is.
No amount of help is too small. If you only have time to move five chairs that is five less chairs we have to worry about at the end of a long day. Can't make the event Saturday? Show up Friday and help. Don't be turned away because you are new or feel you don't have enough experience. Trust us, if you have the time we have a spot! In addition to helping out volunteering is a great way to learn about running events, meet new people, and help your Barony.
Lastly, and perhaps this is the serious bit, never assume that there will always be someone else to do the job. We understand that people want to enjoy the event, but remember that pleasure should extend in some small part to the staff as well. The less people that step up to help the harder the day is for everyone else. I would rather 100 people offer help that is not needed than watch 10 people do the whole job and go home exhausted.
If you are currently on staff please take a moment to check in with the Autocrat to see if he needs you to do anything and when the time comes remember to promote the event and your area as much as possible.

I'm already locked in as Head Troll. And will be on site the night before to help set up. I trust Wolfgang will let me know if he needs anything else from me.
