color:#1F497D'>Well this is not as easy as it sounds…. I have approached
the powers to be at Pennsic more than once about an Atlantia vs everyone else
archery competition more than one time. Most times it was met with hesitation
and little interest. I was also told that there used to be an event that was held
elsewhere like this and then it would simply end…. I think for many
archers who attend Pennsic and don’t take part in the battle, there could
be much more done along the lines of archery. After all most of us are there
and time would be plentiful to support something like this. The trouble since
the archery range was moved, is lack of constructive use of space. Bright Hills
wanted to seriously sponsor a shoot this year and there was no where to put it.
We ended up bringing one target that Godai made and held his shoot instead.
They would also not allow any shoot to occur prior to 5pm which doesn’t leave
a lot of time….Maybe if there is new blood running things they will be
more receptive to these type events, I would love to see archery grow well
beyond just war points at Pennsic but not sure the East will be willing to
oblige. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I concur wholeheartedly with Fens' idea. It would be *very
cool* to take part of the range at Pennsic for an Atlantian Challenge.
It's also fairly easy to do. Just contact the person in charge of the
martial activities for Pennsic next year, or the person in charge of Pennsic 40
Archery and tell them what you would like to do. figure out a time for the
challenge and get it scheduled.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>As a Mongol, I value Archers and their contribution to *any*
event and have sponsored Archery for many years. :) I also sponsored an
all woman team at the last Golden Rose Tournament because I really feel that
women and the martial disciplines in the Society are rather under valued. However,
I also like to have sense of humor about it. So figure out what you would need-
dream big- and I would love to help you make that happen. Pavilion for shade?
Your own water buffalo for the day? Pennants? Banners? Advertising all over the
kingdoms and Pennsic? Articles in the Independant? Tabards? T-shirts for a
fundraiser? Getting a special edition shuttle bus to ferry folks up to the
Archers field for the day? It can all happen.<o:p></o:p></p>
