Greetings Atlantia!
 
It's that time again!  Time to start thinking about what you are going to enter in this (next) year's Persona Pentathlon/Triathlon on 2 February 2013 at the Kingdom Arts and Sciences Festival.  The competition is only 3.5 months away, and I'd really like to see an even bigger turnout than last year ( which at 11 was very good!).  
 
For the adults, we have the Pentathlon.
In this competition, each participant must make 5 items pertaining to 1 persona (for example:  10th century Kievan Rus unmarried peasant woman).  This does NOT have to be your persona.  The 5 items must fit into at least 3 of the different categories listed in the rules.  That means you can have 2 repeated categories.  If one of your items is a research paper, I must receive it no later than 2 January 2013 (1 month prior to the event) in order to give the judges time to carefully read your work.
 
For the children (17 and under), we have the Triathlon.
In this competition, the same rules apply as for the adults except that you only have to make 3 items, and each one must fit into a different category.  I would especially like to encourage more children to enter.  This is a great learning experience, a fun competition, and the prize is terrific!
 
As always, the winner of each competition will receive a basket full of wonderful things donated by our own Order of the Laurel.
 
So, get started on those entries and encourage all your friends to do the same.  Just send me your SCA name, mundane name, your group, and a list of your items by 18 January 2013 so that I can make sure that we have appropriate judges and forms at the event.  The link to all the rules and categories is:  http://moas.atlantia.sca.org/forms.htm  If you have any questions at all feel free to contact me at rissaroo12 at comcast.net   
 
Once again, the dates are:  2 January 2013 - deadline for research papers
                                                18 January 2013 - list of items being entered is due
                                                2 February 2013 - competition day!
 
In service,
Branwen Wallis, OL
