[Archers] Pennsic Archery

[Tracey Mahon]

Hear ye Hear ye,
I am resending a missive reguarding archery at Pennsic this year: pass it on.

> Pennsic Archery War Points 
> The printed Pennsic book will NOT have the correct information regarding
> archery.
> 
> There ARE changes this year! The correct information is below. Please
> distribute it far and wide, as we would like everyone to know this
> information. Please read the whole thing, and perhaps print out a copy for
> reference and store it in your quiver.


> Good luck with your practice this summer,

> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
> Populace Archery War Point Shoot
> Format: The Pennsic Populace Archery War Point consists of four separate
> shoots, each shoot is worth 1 war point for a total of 4 war points. The
> winner of each shoot is determined by total number of points tallied by
> archers over the course of the War. Scores will be tallied each day and
> posted in the Marshals Tent. Any member of the populace may participate.
> Description: There are 4 parts to the populace shoot:
> Castle Clout Shoot (1 Point): The target is a simulated castle turret.
> Archers will be shooting at about 100 yards into a square of approximately
> 27 feet by 27 feet giving an approximate area of 729 square feet. There
> will be a moat monster protecting the castle in front at about 50 yards.
