<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Thank you so much for the kind words, Lord Janyn. I have to add my appreciation and thanks to the marshals who assisted.

They make an amazing team and we're lucky to have them.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">As always, big thank you to my husband Tim Arrowfinder for everything from shoveling poop, to inspections, set up and take down.

Oh, Baron Colum, and Crispin Crispin who I don't think is a marshal, can't recall...but he helped out some people just learning to shoot.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">We had 160 archers at least. That many shot for war points, we used that many stickers off the sheet.....but there were about 30 more who just wandered in to shoot for no points, just for fun, or who were newcomers to the range and using loaner gear. </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">That's a lot of archers over the course of three days, at an event which boasted just a few shy of 1200 people.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">What happens next year? We need someone, (or someones) to step to run archery at War of the Wings. I plan to take a year off and see what goes on at the rest of the event. I've never been off the archery range except for one year when for a few hours I did combat archery. Please think about stepping up into this important job. We can have different people in charge of different days, lots of different people bringing targets so it's not a burden on one person. Multiple groups making a commitment to help, etc. </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">What do you think?</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Many thanks,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Mistress Lorelei Greenleafe</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Oct 18, 2015 at 8:09 PM, Jay Nardone <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jaynardone@comcast.net" target="_blank">jaynardone@comcast.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div lang="EN-US" link="#0563C1" vlink="#954F72"><div><p class="MsoNormal">Good evening my Brothers and Sisters of the Bow! I just returned home from WOW this weekend and had a blast. I want to congratulate our Northern Archers for winning the war point this year! As I was driving home, I couldn’t help but think about what I saw and was part of this weekend in archery at WOW. There were 160 archers present this weekend. Everyone, and I mean everyone was on-board in helping at the range. Mistress Lorelei was herculean as usual in running things and directing, I saw Baron Colum teaching new archers, Lady Sarah out of the gate taught 3 marshals classes, not one but 3! I saw our marshals running the line, helping out and just making the archery portion of the event a great time for all.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">So I just wanted to write and say well done and I am so proud to be part of such a great group of people who work so hard to continue to make our Kingdom shine in archery! You have my utmost admiration and thanks for making my job so easy!<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">In Service,<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">Janyn<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>
