<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Considering Their Majesties' desire to align the laws and policies of Atlantia, I would recommend setting the YTAM age at 16 years old. This is the age they are permitted to authorize for heavy combat and the age at which the Chancellor of Youth Activities has set for their Officers: </DIV>
<DIV><B></B> </DIV>
<DIV><B>1.7.2.9.2.2.1</B> All Chancellors Minor must be at least 16 years of age and a paid member of the SCA. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Also, does this program fall under the same rules and regulations as the Youth Activities programs? E.g. background checks?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm a little disturbed that the deed has been done without a discussion of the potential rules changes first. If we collectively agree to a policy that is contrary to what has been done, I have no problem "grandfathering" the existing marshals into the program because it would be unfair to force them out "ex post facto".</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In service,</DIV>

I am very happy to announce that our first Youth Target Archery Marshal in Atlantia is Edric Alricsson (MKA Robert Singleton) of the Barony of Nottinghill Coill.
