For the past 15+ years I have organized the Royal Rooms for Settmour Swamp events and have purchased tapestries, tablecloths and pewter platters to decorate the Royal Rooms. Over the decades I have received a Silver Crescent, a Maunche, a Terpsichory, a Queen's Order of Courtesey and a Grant of Arms. I studied dancing under Master Christopher Guilwenrod and teach dancing, mostly English Country dancing. At the Barony level I have received a Silver Tower, an Ivory tower and this past year (2015) a Bronze Tower. I never received a Bronze Tower in the past because I was the Baroness handing out these awards. I co-autocrated many events in the early years (1979 to 1985) of the Swamp with Magda and hosted many of the early "Swamp Stomps" (monthly meetings). I co-autocrated a cooking collegium with Elisabetta. I ran "the QUEST" with a dragon obstacle in 2014 and in 2015 I autocrated the QUEST event. I currently serve as the Barony of Settmour Swamp's Chronicler and worked with our web-designer to load the Mudpuppy on the Barony Website. In January 2015 I ran a Court of Fools (King and Queen of Fools and silly jousting) and taught dancing at the masked ball as part of a Swamp Stomp Masked Ball.

For the past 15+ years I have organized the Royal Rooms for Settmour Swamp events and have purchased tapestries, tablecloths and pewter platters to decorate the Royal Rooms. The hardest part of this job is the mountains of laundry after every event and keeping all the items clean and well maintained for decades. 1979 to 1985 I co-autocrated many events in the early years of the Swamp with Magda and hosted many of the early "Swamp Stomps" (monthly meetings). 1981 I co-autocrated a cooking collegium with Elisabetta. 2014 I ran "the QUEST" obstacle course with a dragon obstacle 2015 I autocrated the QUEST event (Settmour Swamp's three day camping event).
