I realize that lots of us are heavily involved with the Children's Fete,
but could YOUR BARONY or YOUR HOUSEHOLD offer a morning or afternoon of
cool fun for the kids?

Please cross post to all our Atlantian Baronies in VA and NC

Greetings unto the Youth Officers of the Known World!

It's already that time again, to consider what classes and activities will
be happening at Pennsic this year.  First and foremost, I have two deputies
this year: Baroness Caroline de Mercier and Rowan Orr.

I am head of Youth Point again this year, and have already begun working
with staff at Pennsic University, and the dance tents to start scheduling
classes.  This year we will be working together to make the best possible
schedule of classes and activities for Youth and for Youth & Families at
Pennsic this year.

We need *your* help!  I would like to have Youth Point open more that just
during the last 8 days of Pennsic, but we need the classes, activities, and
volunteers to be open.  Background checks are not a requirement, though if
you have one already, that's very helpful.

If you are interested in helping, or have any questions, the easiest method
of contacting me is via e-mail at youthpoint at pennsicwar.org

Traditionally, the East, the Midrealm, Æthelmearc, & Atlantia all sponsor
days of activities or half-days of activities at Youth Point.  If your
local group, household, or Kingdom is interested in taking a half-day or
whole day at Youth Point, please e-mail me at youthpoint at pennsicwar.org

In addition to activities for Youth at Youth Point, there will also be a
designated track of Youth & Family classes offered through Pennsic
University.  The P. U. Registrar and myself will work to avoid conflicts,
and all classes held at P. U. will require that any youth in attendance be
accompanied by a responsible adult.  This is specifically for Youth &
Family track classes.  There are no major policy changes this year
concerning Youth Point.

Also offered with be the all-ages dance class, culminating in an All-Ages
Revel in the European Dance Tent!  This was done with great success last
year, and we're hoping for even more involvement this year.  Many thanks to
THL Jayne Barber for her efforts in putting this together last year!

I am open to any and all questions, comments, concerns, suggestions, and
offers of assistance and/or resources.  We are working hard to increase the
amount and variation of content offered for all ages of Youth at Pennsic,
and any information you'd like to pass on is important to us.  Again, the
e-mail address for reaching Youth Point & for other Youth & Family related
concerns is youthpoint at pennsicwar.org

My best to you all, and I look forward to seeing (and hopefully working
with) many of you in the coming months!

Servo,
Martyn
Dept. Head, Youth Point, Pennsic XLII
