[MR] Lochmere Arrow this Saturday, Oct 16

[Michelle]

/fyi - response to question asked off-list:
 
The Novelty Archery Target shoot is a competition for the favorite target 
design.   

Bring a target you have designed for any event, or one you've been wanting to 
test out. 

The populace will shoot at it, then vote for the winner. At the moment, I 
believe we have 4-5 entries.
 
 
Also note that the Lochmere course may be shot for fun by anyone. However, you 
must pair up with someone and, we ask that you yield to teams that are actually 
competing for the Lochmere Arrow.  Just to avoid any confusion, if you are NOT 
competing for the Arrow (ie. you are shooting the Lochmere course for fun only) 
your teammate does NOT have to reside in the same Barony/Shire as you.  The 
"same group" rule only applies to teams that want to win the Lochmere Arrow.
 
Cheers
Fen
