[MR] Northern Regional Combat Archery Practice - May 19th

[Siegfried Sebastian Faust]

Calling all Combat Archers of Atlantia ...

The Barony of Highland Foorde will be hosting a Combat Archery Practice on 
May 19th (a Sunday) from 11am, until everyone gets tired and leaves -- 
probably around 5 or 6.

At this practice, we will do the following:

* Talk CA Shop - answer questions about making of arrows, good quivers, APD 
issues, etc.

* PRACTICE - Shoot at targets, practice effective volley shots, practice 
shooting over shoulders, etc.

* Skirmish - Do some archer only melees, add in heavy fighters if any wanna 
show up, etc.

* Strategize - Talk about effective strategies for us, as a group, to 
use.   Effective spacing, target selection, etc.

* IKCACs - I will be providing an IKCAC target, and hopefully some others 
can bring one or two, and we can shoot IKCACs to our hearts content, both 
for practice, and to show the skill or our combat archers to the rest of 
the knowne world.

Some loaner gear will be made available.

NOTE:  THIS IS NOT AN EVENT ... THIS IS ONLY A PRACTICE ... AGAIN, THIS IS 
NOT AN EVENT.

Therefore, there will be no authorizations done, sorry.  Don't let not 
being authorized stop you from coming to play though!  There will be plenty 
for you to do and learn.

Bring your own food to get you through the day, and note that there may not 
be accessible bathrooms on site (They may be open, they may not)  But 
bathrooms are just a minute's drive away, as is fast food and gas stations.
