Once again Atlantia archers showcased our Kingdom in the highest light they could. We supported 275+ archers during the day to include populous through Royalty from many Kingdoms. We have now supported over 1300 archers since its inception and start 5 years ago. There were 31 Atlantian marshals, 3 marshals from the Mid and 3 from the East assisting in the shoot. On average there were over 45,000 arrows loosed during the day based on the 16 target stations. When the Pennsic staff would not provide water and ice to the attendees at the range, the Baron and Baroness took it upon themselves to gather the water containers and drive to their camp and fill them all so the archers and marshals had water for the day. Lady Esa provided lemonade and light snacks for the marshals as well. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The success for this shoot comes from the willingness of its leaders and archers that support it. Even archers that could not attend Pennsic contributed targets and award prizes. My wife Lady Aemilia Rosa gave up her day to work the check in table and tabulate scores for the day. Once again marshals from Atlantia forgave the chance to shoot and chose to work the entire day on the range so that others might enjoy. A bow was donated from Elk Ridge archery along with eight $25 gift certificates from Elk Ridge archery. The funds donated once again from Atlantia archers and supporters.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Planning for this shoot starts in November of the previous year. I typically start sending announcements about the theme and gathering help along the way. Over the winter planning continues and work continues until all is planned, and finalized. Score sheets are made and target station cards are also printed. Award arrows and scrolls are produced along with marshal favors and gifts. All at the expense of myself and the other generous Atlantian archers supporting this shoot.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I could never conduct the shoot without the help of so many and I am proud to be part of such a dedicated and committed team!
