This note will be found nailed up where the entire Thorn will be able to see it, at some time. The writing is careful, and precise, all save for the words: Felaion Baker, at the end. These are written in an untidy, childish scrawl.
Thorns,
As I'm sure you all realise, the festival celebrating the passing of the Summer Solstice is about to begin! This time of revellry is traditionally (or at least where I come from it was) spent with your family. Of cource, many of us do not have families or cannot go to see them at this festival time. However, we call each other 'Brother' and 'Sister' of the Thorn, so I say we make this like a real family! We can celebrate the passing of the longest day together, like a real family!
Thus, for this occation, I have drawn up a quick list, of events to occur during the festival season from the 20th June to the 10th July. If you are unable to attend because of any reason whatsoever, note it down on the end of this paper and I will see what can be done.
20th June - Festivities begin! I'm certain you will all want to spend the opening day of the festivities with the community, friends, allies outside and inside the Thorn. So I have nothing planned for this day, other than to request you go out and have fun!
21st June - The Day of the Summer Solstice. It is this day that is traditionally spend with the family and close friends, watching the sunrise and set on the longest day in the year. Thus, for those who do have families to spend this joyfull time with, I am proposing nothing happens on this day either. For those without family availible, I advice that you spend the day with the people you really care about. Someone you love, a close friend, whatever makes you happy. Just don't pass up this oppertunity.
22nd June - 24th June - Weekend. During this time, I know I, myself will be busy. Thus I propose that the ladies make use of this time to hold a 'Ladies Night'. What you do during that night is completly up to you, and to be honest, I don't want to know!
26th June - Tuesday. Lads Night. To balance out the 'Ladies Night' of a few days before, I propose a 'Lads Night' for the guys, let off a bit of steam, and get down to some serious drinking without the watchfull eyes of your girl/wife to make you feel guilty about drinking so much! Taven Crawl, here we come!
30th June - Saturday. The Thorn Party of Summerdays! I propose that on Saturday the 30th June, we hold the main Thorn party. What'll transpire during the party is anyones guess right now, and I'm asking for assistance in ideas and organising.
Please, write notes on the spare paper at the end of this note, giving your views, new ideas, if you'r availible or not, and most importantly what services you can offer for the party. Can you sing? Can you play an instrument? Let me hear it!
Enjoy Summerdays!
