[MR] waterbearing at Sapphire Joust

[Barbara Miller]

Sapphire Joust will be in 2 weekends. Summer is about to begin for real! The 
heavy and rapier fighters should be out enmass having fun. What will you be 
doing?

Waterbearers are needed to circulate around the list fields and make sure the 
fighters stay hydrated. There are no age limitations or special requirements 
needed to offer water or gatorade to those poor hot sweaty muscled noble lords 
and ladies in armor. ;D If you are able to help for an hour or more, please stop 
by the Chirurgeon's tent. We will most likely also need waterbearers as people 
gather for Court. Many hands will make light work, and a safer Event for all!

If you have a desire, or are even wondering about it, to become a Chirurgeon, 
please stop by Chirugeon's Point (the tent between the fighting field and the 
merchants, assuming it will be in the same spot as years past). Chirurgeons must 
have at least a current CPR certification, have a current Red Cross First Aid 
Certification (or higher medical certs), be a SCA member, and be over the age of 
18 (16 year olds can be a CIT, and work under a warrantedChirurgeon until they 
are 18.). You would fill out an application and send it along with a photocopy 
of your certs, membership card, and proof of age to the Kingdom Chirurgeon. You 
will serve as a Chirurgeon In Training (CIT) under a warrantedChirurgeon for at 
least 3 Events, and then become a WarrantedChirurgeon yourself! This position 
enables you to be of service to the populous of Atlantia in a very healthy ways!

The CIT application form is

See you at Sapphire (friendly visits are best, but chirurgeons are always 
willing to help you with the minor stuff and call 911 for the major stuff)
 
Yours in Service,
