<html><DIV>Greetngs my fellow friends of Atlantia. I have just returned from Gulf Wars and had a blast. While there I met some folks in Anstorrea that have a viable Youth Rapier Program there. It has been in place for 2 years now and is doing well. The age groups are from 12 to 17. This has been working for the mundane community for many years now. As for the insurence issue they say that the peope are covered not the children as in all SCA events and practices. My idea is to start such a program here in Atlantia using there rules. You may find them at <A href="http://www.realthme.net/moondrgn/">www.realthme.net/moondrgn/</A> I also have a hard copy. I would appreciate any and all comments to this idea. And yes I am willing to head the program. Please let me know what you think.</DIV><br clear=all><hr>Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at <a href="http://explorer.msn.com">http://explorer.msn.com</a><br></p></html>
