Grey's Declaration
Durham citizenry, our age is dawning. Too long have we been dwarfed by York's might and tailing the advancements of Derby. We have been suffering the disappointments of new governments and unimaginative institutions. The eradication of finger sickness has opened Durham's greatest strength. Durham has business to utilise and Utility to do so. -Edward Grey
Agenda
While conquering the Island is the ultimate goal, we need to pace ourselves and build an army* first.
Education
If our children are to grow up to be effective soldiers, we must ensure that they get an expensive but thorough education to compete with outsourcing natives. Our first project is to build an academe modelled on Edward Grey's wife and cousin/halftwin sister Janet Grey's idea and add a ticket booth to it. Whether it's paid for by contract from more charitable organisations, individual tuition, or scholarships, the service provided will be superior to that of any other school on the Island, guaranteed.**
Utility Bank
One thing we forgot to bring to Shartak is bankers. (We did forget to bring those, right?) In order to finance other projects by Durham Utility as well as other groups through loans Utility Bank provides services not offered by other banks. To supplement interest, monetary and mental, Utility Bank has fruit machines and gaming parrots in most branches as well as national lotteries. Utility Bank accounts may also be used for instant payment of Durham Utility services and contracts so we may start work immediately.***
EMS
Because not everyone was there for the travelling first aid course and people buzzed on beer, rum, and toad secretions forget to bring their kits with them into the jungle, there is a need for an EMS. Our ambulances(people with stretchers and very loud birds strapped to their heads)charge nominal prices calculated by distance from a dispatch post, urgency, availability, and the price of first aid kits and/or herbs. Discounts are available to anyone who can provide precise coordinates so we have less trouble finding you. No other EMS service on the Island will guarantee delivery in less than 30 hours or it's free.****
Durham Expressway
The usual route pirates follow to trade with Durham is long and goes through unfriendly native and York territory. Durham Expressway will connect Durham, the shipwreck, and Derby directly without routing through Dalpok or York.*****
Summer Camp
Since it's apparent that children are sleeping in the academe due to heat exhaustion and dull subject matter, it is time we introduce them to real exertion and send them off on an expedition into the steaming jungles so they can experience all the wonderful wildlife and strange diseases that they haven't bothered to go outside and take in. A long daily hike, many dangerous animal encounters, and some food experimentation with possibly toxic vegetation will round off a typical day of excitement at Shartak Summer Camp. Many fun activities we'll experience will include juicing, head collecting, torso collecting, more hiking, fighting other students, mountain climbing, river rafting, crochet, more hiking, squeegeeing sweat into bottles, tiger skinning, forest destruction, bathroom breaks, more hiking, fire building, target practice, desecration of native artefacts and temples, giving gold to the camp director, ghost stories, ghost hunting, more hiking, viking reenactments, mindless killing of anything that moves, taxidermy, treasure hunts, hands on first aid training, sexual experimentation, more hiking, falling down liquid consumption, tent construction, trading, and Saturday safaris. Our qualified counsellors will ensure the safety of your child, guaranteed? ******
