[Archers] Pennsic 42 Champions Team

[jaynardone at comcast.net]

Good morning everyone, after talking with my counter-parts in the East and Mid it looks like we will have the same amount of slots per side again this year for the Champions shoot (40). With that said I would encourage all of you no matter what ranking you are to apply and come to the practices for the team.  The practices this year will be Saturday 27 July after the St. Sebastians shoot and Sunday 28 July. You will need to be at both of them to be considered for the team. 



I just want to point out a few things for those that have never been through this before. F inal decisions will most likely be made in the closing hours of practice. Please dont take them personally, the teams need to be populated with those that can deliver the best results for war points. Lord Ghijskijn Van den Vaerst  will be helping me this year run the shoot so he will be conducting the practice sessions. Anyone who wishes to be part of the team please send me your name and I will add it to the list and pass the list to Lord Ghijskijn to work from. 



Below is the description I received about the shoot. 



In Service, 



Janyn
