Greetings and Salutations do we, Lady Isabella Beatrice della Rosa  (called 
Belle) and Lady Ellen de Wynter, send unto the populace of  Nordskogen.  We 
hope this missive finds you in good health and in the  company of good people.

Lady Ellen and I are  running an event in October and we are in need of your 
help.  The event  is called “Creating the Creative, SCA 1001” and it is a day 
of classes for  newcomers and old-timers alike who want to learn something 
new!  This is  going to be a non-garbed event with the sole purpose of getting 
people  involved in different aspects of the SCA by holding beginners' classes 
in  anything and everything. While we would like to hold "What to expect" 
style  classes for people new to the Society, we would love to see 1001 classes on 
 anything that would interest people from arts and sciences to volunteering 
to  the martial arts. We want classes that would introduce people to something 
new  they haven’t tried before.

Here is where your  gracious help would me most welcome.  We need teachers - 
many, many  teachers - willing to teach any kind of beginner's level class in 
an area of  interest.  Arts and Sciences are a given, but we would love 
classes that  explained how to run an event, what it takes to be an Event Steward, a 
Feast  Steward, or a Volunteer Coordinator.  We need volunteers to teach 
classes  on “what to expect at your first event” or “what to bring to your first  
camping event” or “what to expect at your first court”, etc..  We would  
also love to see teachers willing to give classes on administrative duties  
required for offices, from the regional level to kingdom level.  The idea  is to 
give people a non-intimidating way to explore trying something they  wanted to 
try but were unsure where to begin or who to ask.  We are open  to any class 
ideas so if there was something you wanted to interest people in,  and were able 
to teach a beginner’s level class on it, please let us  know!

The event will be held on October 18, 2008 at  the Bunker Hills Regional Park 
Activities Center Building  in Andover,  MN.  If you are interested in 
helping us with this, please send us word  at either belledelarosa at charter.net (for 
Belle) or ladyellenthewise at yahoo.com  (for Ellen).  Please include your SCA 
name, your modern name, the title  (or idea) of your class, and an e-mail 
address where we can contact you.   Further, if you could spread the word around 
about our event to the members of  your community we would very much appreciate 
it.  We believe this would  be especially beneficial to any newer members of 
your local group.   Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions you 
may have and we  look forward to hearing from you!

Yours Ever in  Service to the Dream,
Lady Isabella Beatrice della Rosa (called  Belle) and Lady Ellen de Wynter
