At Gulf Wars one kingdom runs the range for one day then another, etc for the duration of the war. Of course the range still falls under one kingdom but the work gets spread out. Perhaps if different groups or baronies strong in archery step up to run the range. For example, Sacred Stone runs it Thursday, Stierbach runs it Friday, etc. Just an idea tossed out.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>cog<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> Archers [mailto:archers-bounces@seahorse.atlantia.sca.org] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Lorelei Elkins<br><b>Sent:</b> Monday, October 19, 2015 9:53 PM<br><b>To:</b> Jay Nardone<br><b>Cc:</b> archers@seahorse.atlantia.sca.org<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [Archers] A warm thank you to you all!<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:18.0pt'>Thank you so much for the kind words, Lord Janyn.

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.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>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!
