[MR] Recycling Pewter Tokens at KASF!

[Christopher M. Cunning]

Good Evening!

KASF is this weekend, and I hope all of you are considering attending. It's a great chance
to see what so many have been working hard on, exchange ideas, and maybe even see that
pewter casting guy burn himself a few times.  Fun for all!

However, should you or a friend be planning on coming, please take a moment to consider recycling
any old pewter tokens you may not be particularly attached to.

The cost of Pewter has gone up drastically over the last several years,
and as such the cost involved in both making tokens for events, as well as
encouraging the next generation of casters to get started has been
increasing.   This being the case, I would ask all of you to take a moment
and look around your house and examine that collection (or pile) of tokens you have.
If a token holds a special meaning to you, hold onto it!
Cherish it!  Add it to your Garb!

However, if you come across ones that you feel may simply just taking up
space, please consider gathering them up and seeking out your local pewter
caster, especially the ones that are just starting out, to recycle them into
future tokens.  By offering them up for recycling, you may help someone
discover a new talent or insight on a new technique, or even help your local
group save a few dollars on their next event by reducing costs.

I will personally have a small jar on my table to take any recyclables offered.  Just
look for the guy pouring metal.


Thank you all very much for your time.

Yours in Service,

Christopher MacConing
