[MR] Re: SCA Special License Plates

Belphoebe,

  I researched the exact information for an SCA about four years ago (I think 
the number was 300 prepaid back then). Some people may remember me asking 
about it back then. I even took a straw poll at a local event, seeing if 
there was interest. While there was a lot of interest, there was a definite 
question if we could find 300 members willing to purchase the plates. A lot 
of our members already have specialty plates, that they want to keep. The 
idea never went away, but sort of slowed down. 

  HOWEVER, I have a definite counter suggestion. What about a more generic 
"Historical Reenactor" licensee plate? One that would have a picture of a 
civil war soldier on one side, and a knight in armor on the other. If we open 
up that to the LARGE number of other time period, I think we could definitely 
get the support. I think there are more US civil war reenactors in Virginia 
than SCAers, but we also have lots of other time periods (take a look at the 
yearly Military through Ages event).

  Any more thoughts?
