[MR] Spear authorization for Pennsic before July 12th..Southern Atlantia

[electric_mystic]

Greetings fair Atlantia from Ravenwulf, Warlord- Barony of Hawkwood,
 
We have a fighter who would like to become authorized in spear for Pennsic. Lord Vladimir has been working on this project and ready to authorize - only to learn: 
""....
""In order to have the appropriate time before Pennsic to process
authorizations and return cards by mail, all renewals and authorizations
must be postmarked no later than July 12th. Any that I receive after that
may not be completed in time..."""

Therefore i submit to you a request for advice on how Vlad might be able to get authorized spear THIS coming weekend without driving all the way from Asheville to Storvic for the tourney? He was informed by Lord Jonathon that an official practice would work if the appropriate Marshalls are present, however Windmaster Hill's, official practice is on the 13th (i think..) and too late to submit the authorization in time, is my impression...
 
Does anyone know of an official practice closer to Asheville, NC this coming weekend , so that we may request the appropriate Marshalls to attend for his spear authorization?
 
any advice on this matter would be highly appreciated, and i will forward to Vlad.
