October 2006, volume 1 , issue 1 In this issue:
Greetings to the populous of the Shire of Southmarch and the Freehold of Icelakes, In returning to the office of Chronicler, I wanted to re-energize Southmarch’s traditional newsletter Wolftracks. In keeping with the times, it was decided at October’s council meeting that we should do the newsletter electronically, thus Wolf-E-Tracks was born. Please feel free to share comments and information via email with me for inclusion in Wolf-E-Tracks, which will be published each month the week following council meeting. Letters to the Chronicler and information (event copy, calendar items, and whatever else you can think of) will be due to the Chronicler by the council meeting in order to be included that month’s newsletter. Submissions are preferred in an electronic format via email. Respectfully, Lady Birna (Wendy Powless)

Icelakes Club students are also welcome to come join in on A&S Day and work on armor, Garb, or whatever you want to work on. We understand that students may not have access to sewing machines, or may not know how to sew. If this is the case please let me know and we will find someone to make you garb.
