YES!  ABSOLUTELY!!!!!  The most wonderful "awards" that I have ever gotten
in all of my time in the SCA were as simple as Thank You.  They mean more
than anything that can be announced with trummets and all the trappings.
Just hearing from someone that you made their experience, their time in the
SCA better.  *gee*  Does it get better than that?

We are a society that works solely through the efforts of one another, it
would not be any fun, and frankly would not exist, without all of the litle
things that EVERYONE pitches in to do, at events, in paperwork, as an
officer ... Thank people for the efforts that they make.

Enough of my soapbox.  I think I will go out and appriciate someone ...
perhaps over a good mead here in the corner?
