face=Arial>Perhaps a response closer linked to Jonathas' proposal here
- the barony of Sacred Stone has a youth archer champion position and has
for several years. I believe having a youth champion position enhances the
group, recognizes that youth are our future, and ecourages the youth to get
involved. Our current youth archer champion was delighted last year to
have a couple shooting against him for the position. This champion also
does fencing and has been sorely disappointed more than once when there were no
other youth for him to compete against. Having a youth champion position
and having that position mean something, i.e. escort duty for Royal
courts, would go a long way to encourage more youth to get involved in my
opinion.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
