[MR] RE: [atlantian-chirurgeon] FW: Gulf Wars challenge

[Mazzone, Tracy (Mitchell)]

Greetings,
    Sorry for the interruption but I just wanted to clarify that the
"pop tops" that they want for use at Gulf Wars are the type that you
find on bottled water (like Aquafina), just in case there was any
confusion as to what, exactly, is needed.  I know that there are plenty
of you out there who drink bottled water so please start saving the tops
and send them to Gulf Wars to aid the waterbearing effort.  Even if you
aren't able to attend I'm sure that you know some kind gentle who would
be willing to take them for you in order to support the War and our
fighters.  Thank you!

Good Day To You All,
    I would like to pass on this missive from the Kingdom Waterbearer
for Meridies.  There is a competition to be held at Gulf Wars for
households.  The household that donates the most empty 2-liter bottles
and pop tops (they don't need to be donated in equal numbers but it's
great if you can) to the Gulf Wars waterbearing effort will win a
handmade banner.  Please consider helping out in this effort, even if
you are not part of a household.  This is a very worthy effort and I
know that all of the fighters and waterbearers will be most appreciative
of any donations you are able to make.  Details are listed below.  Thank
you!
 
P.S.  Please pass this on to other Atlantian lists, particularly
household ones.  
 
Yours In Service,
Lady Cicilia Tironi

Household Competition for Gulf Wars

Introducing the Waterbearer's Challenge!  Each year the call goes out,
"Please bring empty 2-liter bottles to Gulf Wars!"  This is a
competition
for households to see which house can collect the greatest number of
2-liter
bottles for the Gulf Wars Waterbearing cause.  This activity hopes to
fulfill three aspects:

  1.. Supply the Gulf Wars Waterbearers with much needed empty bottles.
  2.. Put all households on the same level in a friendly competition.
Size
doesn't matter!
  3.. Create a new Gulf Wars annual competition.

Materials to be collected are empty 2-liter bottles and pop tops.
Quality
will count!  Read the requirements for donating empty 2-liter bottles on
the
Gulf Wars website -  http://www.gulfwars.org/water.html   One point is
given
for each bottle collected, bonuses are given to meeting the 'other'
requests.  Sheer number can win, but in the event of a tie on number of
bottles, quality will decide.  Donating pop-tops is an automatic double
bonus!

Interested households wishing to compete should email the Meridian
Kingdom
Waterbearer at water at meridies.org with your household name, kingdom and
group. Once you arrive at Gulf Wars, submit your contribution at the
Waterbearing Point near the fort. Contributions for competition will be
accepted at all times, just look for the 'Waterbearer's Challenge
Donation 

Station' sign. Materials for competition may be submitted all week, up
until noon on Thursday. Winner will be announced at Great Court on
Saturday night. There will be a prize for the winning household. This is
open to all households attending Gulf Wars from any Kingdom.

This competition is sponsored by the Waterbearers Guild and an anonymous
household.
