Our first NSRTF fundraiser was the Help Free Mo Campaign. The premise: The Boreal Company West Lieutenant, Sir Mohammad Sevim Uglu Gowan Uglu, was kidnapped, and the Boreal Army Commander didn't have the funds to pay his ransom, so the NSRTF undertook the task of trying to raise the ransom money to Free Mo. As an added bonus, for every $20.00 donation, donors were given a "I Helped Free Mo T-shirt". A number of left over t-shirts were later sold at the Fall Harvest Event in L'ile du Dragon Dormant, where Sir Mohammad was inducted into the Order of the Chivalry. Sir Mohammed was kind enough to sign shirts for those interested.

In an effort to rid the basements, storage sheds, and closets of the populace from the huge amount of lost and found items that have been collected over the years, Lord Lachlan and Lady Janet offered the NSRTF a table at their event to sell off these items. Many thanks to Lady Niniae, the main source for storing these lost and found items, and for running the table at the event. The photo you see here isn't of a lost item, but it is a photo of a "Lost" with a new "Found" toy!

And we must thank all our volunteer models from across the Knowne World...for without them the calendar would never have been as much fun!
