[MR] Pre-registration for the Persona Pentathlon and the Youth Triathlon Now OPEN

[Jeanmaire R]

Unto the Populace of the Kingdom of Atlantia,

First, please feel free to cross-post this to any group that may be interested.

It now lacks but three short weeks before the Kingdom Arts & Sciences Festival, 
on February 5th. Accordingly, the Persona Pentathlon and the Youth Triathlon are 
now open for pre-registration.  

Anyone interested in competing is encouraged to write me, at 
jeanmaire9 at yahoo.com , to pre-register.  Pre-registration is not essential to 
enter, but it will make it possible for me to set up a folder with the proper 
forms prior to the event, and that will make both our days more pleasant. 
 Please include your SCA and mundane names, the SCA group that you belong to, 
plus a list of your five (or three) entries for the Pentathlon (or the Youth 
Triathlon).  For each entry please send a short description, plus the Category 
and Subcategory it should be judged under.  For a list of the categories and 
subcategories, you can access the Registration Form, at: 
 http://moas.atlantia.sca.org/forms/pentathlon/registration.pdf

Anyone entering is also encouraged to peruse the judging forms for the 
Pentathlon and Triathlon, that you may be better prepared to earn all those 
extra points.  The forms are in the highlighted section at the bottom of the 
page, at:  http://moas.atlantia.sca.org/forms/

Remember, also, that if you are planning on entering a Research Paper (Category 
V) as one of your five (or three) articles, it must be submitted early in order 
to give time for it to be properly judged.  Therefore, all research papers are 
due by midnight on January 25th.  If you bring a research paper with you on the 
day of KASF, it will NOT be accepted. 

Any questions or comments should be directed to me, at jeanmaire9 at yahoo.com 
 Best of luck to all entrants this year, and I look forward to seeing you all at 
KASF.

Yours in Service,

Mistress Jeanmaire du Domremy
17th Viscountess of Drachenwald

P.S.  As a reminder:  The Pentathlon in Persona is a yearly competition held at 
Kingdom A&S Festival.  To enter you must be 18 or older, and produce 5 entries 
all tied to a single persona.  The persona can be your own, or it can be someone 
entirely different. However, the entries must cover at least 3 of the five 
categories, as outlined on the registration form (see link above).  To enter the 
Youth Triathlon, you must be 17 or younger, and produce 3 entries, also tied to 
a single persona, and covering 2 of the five categories.
