Announcing: ALTHING 2022!

It’s that time of year again, the time when we begin to think about Althing (and everything which comes with it).

Althing this year will be combined with DF Camp (18th – 25th August 2022), with Althing happening on the 23rd and 24th August 2022! The site we have chosen is near Borth (in Wales).

All information in this post is subject to change, please check the DF socials for the most up-to-date info! Ta muchly 🙂

Elections

Elections this year will be run in person, with voting taking place via a Google Form (for those who can’t make it to the site) and on paper on site.

To nominate yourself or someone else for a role please email nominations@spanthat.world with:

  • the nominee’s name; and
  • the nominee’s email address.

We will need further information from the nominee over the coming months, but that’s all we need for now.
