Reign XXIV

Emperor XXIV

The Golden Egle Emperor

Jeff Clark

Empress XXIV 

The 24 Kt. Gold Empress

Nina Montaldo

The selection of two energetic, beautiful people for this important year was achieved when the community chose Jeff Clark and Nina Montaldo as Emperor and Empress XXIV. This golden year was truly 24-Kt in more ways than one. Jeff and Nina, in addition to having an endless reservoir of class and elegance, distinguished themselves as outstanding representatives on the Court circuit. Between the two of them, they are probably the most traveled Monarchs in out history. All this, plus being all over the city and raising funds for numerous charities at an amazing rate. The Pink Ribbon Campaign from his reign raised over $3000; the Thanksgiving Food Drive for CAP raised about $4000 and Nina herself set a Court record raising a little over $600 at Smack-A-Star to hit her with a pie!! Nina and Jeff now hold the voter turnout record for the Court with approximately 1600 votes cast in the election they won. Among the firsts for this reign are Nina being recognized in the line of succession to Jose I of San Francisco and their Coronation will be the first to be held at the DIA Holiday Inn, a break from tradition.

Snowball was held at the Regency and themed Christmas with the Royal Family while King of Hearts also at the Regency (the last function before remodeling) was Boot Camp and one of the most successful King of Hearts ever.

The line of succession was 24-KT. GOLD as well this year consisting of Prince and Princess Royale, Brad Busbyy and Chyna Blue; Grand Duke and Grand Duchess, Mark Grandon and Kir Royale; Czar and Czarina, Blake Kleeberger and Jazzanne Capri; Don and Reina, Greg Vick and Coco Marie Sugarbaker and countless other Court members.

The golden era ushers in the beginning of the next exciting epoch for the Court with A Royal Fantasy and the Crystal/Legendary fables will continue!
