#1        Got a loud voice and a little time?  Josef Pieter von Bayern is
organizing the "Town Criers" of Estrella War.  They need criers available
twice per day at 9:30 am (for the 10am cry and 3:30pm (for the 4pm cry).  The
only requirement is that Criers be able to project their voices in an
articulate manner over a large area multiple times. The cry will only go out
twice a day along 4 posted routes. Each route has 4 cry spots.  Criers may
be as young as 10 years old (in pairs with parents permission).  Parents who
have youth wanting to volunteer need to meet with either Lady Helena or
Josef BEFORE they will assign a route to a youth volunteer.  They are
available at Herald's Point, or e-mail him at* **
heraldspoint at estrellawar.org* <heraldspoint at estrellawar.org>

            The cry begins in earnest on Wednesday morning.  There will be a
criers Party on Sat., Feb.13th, following the evening cry in Heralds Point
for criers who worked 4 or more shifts during the war. They will also
receive a special favor for two or shifts marking their service to the War.



#2        The site closes at 10 a.m. on Monday, February 15, 2010.  The site
is returned to the owner at noon.  Anyone left on the site at noon will be
trespassing.  Plan on starting to pack your camps  on Sunday and getting off
site by 10 a.m Monday.  Thank you!



#3        Prospective cart drivers who are licensed to drive but who are not
named insureds can show, a driver history statement from their states DMV,
in lieu of an insurance card in their name. That way people who don't own
cars but are licensed, only have to show that they are insurable (aka have a
valid license). The address to get one in AZ is :  https://serviceariz
