Individuals requesting event pre-registration refunds must contact the Event Steward and the Province Exchequer in writing, by paper or e-mail, at least one week prior to the posted event date and must include a valid mailing address.
Partial refunds for a group reservation where one or more individuals were unable to attend will be considered.
In the occurrence of an event cancellation, all pre-registration fees will be returned following current EK policy.
Requests received after this deadline will be considered on an individual basis and only in extreme or emergency circumstances, subject to approval by the Event Steward, Exchequer or Gate Coordinator and Seneschal.
Refunds will either be issued in the form of a check drawn on the Provincial checking account, or if a check written by the individual has not yet been deposited and is of the correct amount, it may instead be returned. Refund checks will be issued within 14 days of the filing of the event report. Cash refunds cannot be given. PayPal fees, if any, will not be refunded.
Following receipt of a refund request, if approved, it will be submitted by the Event Steward, Gate Coordinator or Seneschal to the Exchequer.
Thanks to some early planning and thinking ahead, Malagentia has reserved Saturday, Sept. 17, at Hebron Pines for the Harvest Moon Shoot event.
While we still have our spring/summer events to get through, we are actively seeking bids to run Harvest Moon.
Please use the “Submit a Bid for an Event” function on our website, and reach out to Seneschal Mat Wyck with any questions at or through other means.

Hello my fellow Malagentians!
I’m here with an update on the virtual election process. Due to time constraints, there will be a minor change in the notification process and we will not be doing the USPS mailings. We will still be posting to all available online platforms, including our Facebook pages and the official website – which generates an email to those who have signed up for notifications. If you are aware of a paid member not being on any of the platforms, please be sure let them know how to cast their vote.
Voting will still be done via email to from 12:01 AM December 03 through 11:59 PM December 31. Please be sure to cast your vote, to include your proof of membership (a picture of your membership card or screenshot from the membership page, please), during this time frame. Results will be announced at the January 06, 2022, province meeting.
As a reminder, the candidates will have an opportunity to speak briefly at the Dec. 2 virtual Province Meeting this week.
These are the candidates for the offices, and write-ins will also be accepted if they are paid members:
Thank you for your understanding and please contact myself, or Mat Wyck, with questions or concerns.

Good evening, Malagentia. As promised at the last provincial meeting, here is your list of nominees for the upcoming officer elections.
Nominees (in no particular order):
Elections will be held virtually. Please tune in to our next meeting, scheduled for December 02, for a brief introduction from the nominees and a recap of the election process.
YIS,
Shyvan Floyd Chronicler
Hello Malagentians! It is that time again where we need to hold elections for our officer positions. As such, nominations will be accepted during the November 04, 2021 meeting. Please look for the meeting link on the calendar and on the official Facebook Group(s).
Individuals interested in the officer positions can also view them at the web address below. More information about the requirements for office and elections can be found in the Malagentia Guidelines (link below). Officers are expected to attend quarterly officers’ meetings, and to either attend or have a designee at the monthly provincial meetings. Those interested in an office are encouraged to speak with the current office holder for more information, or with the Seneschal.
Please also consider becoming a deputy to any roles you may have interest in if you aren’t ready to hold the official officer position at this time. It’s a perfect way to get a bird’s eye view of what the role entails.
