Chivalry at MDRF
« on: 2012-10-23, 17:27:21 »

The MDRF facebook page received this update today:

Quote
A TRUE TALE: As the sun set over Revel Grove on another season, a gentleman walking to his car found a distinctive money clip on the ground with a king's ransom within. Being almost to his car it would have been easiest and financially rewarding to unlock the door, start the car and head home. But no, this prince among men returned to the front gate, was escorted to Guest Services, and without leaving a name, turned in the fortune. Happily the distraught owner was able to retrieve their treasure, which meant a great deal to them. They would like to properly thank the noble person but we know not who to credit with this act of chivalry. If the just knight reads this and wishes to oblige, please email with the paticulars of the trove returned to info@rennfest.com and we will gladly forwad the true respondent to the appreciative recipient of your kind deed. How will the strory end?

Huzzah!

I don't know about the 'strory' but hopefully that story ended well.  Huzzah for choosing to do the right thing- as I know we all would have, given the opportunity.  I'm a believer in karma...for myself I could not have done other than what this person did.

Hopefully, this said person will remain anonymous as his/her noble deed shall be rewarded & recognized for its selfless nature/action. Huzzah to 'selflessness' in 'good service'. :) Of course, if said person wishes to make him/herself known, I think several rounds of celebration at the Tavern would be in order. :) :P
