Please join me in congratulating four new Campaign Service Award recipients!
Auke Teeninga joined the Venture-Captain team as the coordinator of the Netherlands back in the initial assignment of 13 regional coordinators. He has spent more than 1,000 days coordinating and organizing PFS in and around Holland. PFS has been fortunate to have someone to steer the ship there. He is now PFS number 710!
Dave Harrison was also assigned as regional coordinator of the United Kingdom with the original 13. He also has registered more than 1,000 days of coordination over his region. He also helped with the establishment of PaizoCon UK and was able to help recruit not only new Venture-Officers of England, but also Ireland. He is now PFS number 711!
Rob Silk joined the team as a Venture-Lieutenant of England in late 2011 and had logged more than 700 days of service. He helped grow his region so quickly he was promoted as VC over London. Rob also had a very significant role in making PaizoCon UK the awesome event it has turned into. He is now PFS number 712!
Zrinka Znidarcic joined the team as a Venture-Captain in late 2011. She was assigned to a very large region of Croatia, Bosnia, and Slovenia. The only organized play of any signifance before she came on the scene was Magic: the Gathering. She introduced PFS to the entire region and all three countries and has done a magnificent job growing PFS in the region. Her efforts are showing tremendous return and she has my utmost respect with stating from the ground up. She is now PFS number 713!
All four of these individuals have my utmost respect and highest praise for a job very well done. Thank you to all of you for making my job much easier.

I still remember Azmyth telling me "I'm only the venture captain of the Bay Area, he's the venture captain of like three countries."
I dug up this picture from my wedding and it seemed like a nice moment to share.

I just want to say thank you Mike for your amazing support and a big thank you to all the players and GMs who *are* the PFS in our area. Hopefully we continue to grow and one day finally get the first Bosnian group of players (if any of you are out there, let me know!)
I'm happy and honored to be of service to my PFS crowd

Congratulations and great to see that Mike is honoring hard work done here in Europe. It is sometimes different what is needed here - but that makes it not less work and the honored 4 are well among the vanguard who have pushed PFS.
It was nice to have been there when the award happened and I'm in the great position to have had three of the mentioned at my game table. Actually 2 of them introduced me to PFS and have been around for my very first game when I started - as GM and fellow player. Just need to get Zrinka on my table - guess I missed an opportunity this weekend.
All I can say - carry on.

Like the rest of you, we do what we do because we enjoy it, but it was very humbling to be honoured in this way and to get that special medal and the bragging rights on that low, low PFS number. Wow! Thank you very much, Mike and Paizo.
I love the idea of the beer at the bar for the lowest number but I shall flee from Auke, Dave and Zrinka if I see them in the pub.

Thank you very much, Mike and Paizo.
And thank you for all the congratulations.
Setting up PaizoCon UK and encouraging Pathfinder Society Play in the UK have been awesome experiences and really show just how enthusiastic and amazing Pathfinders are.
And I too am a keen supporter of the lowest number gets the drinks - just need to continue out-drinking Auke ;)

Congratulations to all of you, and well earned!
As with Thod, I've had three of the four at my game table and also missed Zrinka this time around - I sense an excuse for an eastern-European road trip brewing...
Rob is personally responsible for introducing me to PFS back in its beginning days - in fact he's not gaining much going from PFS number 1772 to 712, other than that 700 designation giving him a license to kill or something (not that it ever stopped him before).
It's great having such dedicated, hard working people making our PFS experience that much more enjoyable. Thanks for all your efforts!
