Difference between revisions of "Logs:Wingleader Meeting Results"

On the 11th day of Month 12, Turn 20, the Wingleaders of High Reaches had

their weekly wing meeting, at which was discussed the fairly poorly       
received announcement about the Crom farmland deal. Word since has been   
that on the whole, it was a positive meeting, and while a good half (if   
not more) of the Wingleaders remain unconvinced, if not outright unhappy, 
about the whole thing, they're at least being loyal to their weyr, and    
doing what they need to to help out.                                      
                                                                          
All of the Wingleaders have gone back to their wings to gather up a list  
of names of anyone who has any kind of farming experience, even if it's   
from turns ago, or in an area entirely unlike the Crom region. The list   
will be used to create a working group of riders (and residents) who will 
be leading the weyr in the initial stages of the planning required for the
project.                                                                  
                                                                          
Of course, not everyone who has farming experience is interested, and     
while the wingleaders may have agreed to support the weyrleader, their    
wingriders have not necessarily followed suit. More than a few former     
holders have publicly stated that they accepted search to get AWAY from   
farming, thank you very much, and they are not going to take any steps    
backwards. Others seem more enthusiastic; some even seem eager to be able 
to put to use previous skills - it's better than the same old nothing,    
after all.                                                                
                                                                          
Ultimately, it's a little hard to tell at this point whether the weyr is  
going to be able to pull this off, given the internal politics of it all -
if it's this hard now, after all, how are they ever going to manage to    
actually make a go of the actual labour?
