[Archers] St. Sebastian's IV report

[Jay Nardone]

Good evening my Brothers and Sisters of the bow. Now that we are back from
Pennsic and somewhat unpacked I wanted to take a minute to report on this
year's shoot. Since there was no mention of any Atlantian archery during
court, I wanted to get the word out to you all. 

 

Firstly I want to say a big "Thank you" again to everyone that helped with
the shoot. It was greatly successful and now we have our 4th year of this
event under our collective belts. There is rumor that next year the
Aethelmarc archers want to split the shoot with us and provide marshals and
target stations, I will still run the overall shoot. I will coordinate with
them over the winter to see if this comes to fruition or not?

 

This year we had 267 registered archers and another 21 that did not compete
for a total of 288 archers. This is a wonderful amount considering it falls
on the middle Saturday when many are still arriving and setting up their
camps. I will continue to push to try to move it to Sunday if we can. We had
38 Atlantian marshal's helping out during the day and another 10 or so from
the Middle, Aethelmarc and the East. There were a total of 13 target
stations. Atlantian archers donated over $350 of their own money to 14 gift
certificate awards. 

 

Lady Esa provided a great spread of snacks and lemonade for our marshals and
Mistress Martelle and Lady Tsura provided the belt favors again this year
for our helping marshals. I provided the pewter cast "spikes" for all
marshals as well. Lord Godai coordinated the gift certificates again this
year for me. 

 

We have now passed the 1,000 archers mark for this shoot. I am extremely
proud of you all and I could never pull this shoot off without all of you
that give your time, energy and hearts for this shoot. Even though it was
not mentioned by our Monarchs, it is not forgotten by me and I will do
everything in my power to assure it gets the recognition it deserves!

 

I am eternally grateful to you all for the continued help!

 

In Service,

 

Janyn Fletcher, DEM TA, Atlantia
