> Greetings Atlantia,
> 
> In celebration of the impending Pearl (30th) Anniversary of the fair Kingdom of Atlantia, the lady Margaret Roe and I feel it is the finest time to encourage a grand promenade of all crown lands so that we may all visit our neighbors, near and far, and celebrate with them such a special anniversary.
> As announced in court at Crown Tournament, we offer a challenge to all to travel the length and breadth of this kingdom as often and widely as possible during the twelve-month beginning with Coronation of Michael VIIII and Seonaid VI this Spring and ending at the Coronation of their grand-heirs the Spring following. During this time, we encourage all to see far parts of Atlantia they may not visit so regularly. 
> 
> In support of this, we have arranged several prizes to be awarded those who travel the furthest and most during the year to come. Some of the prizes, specifically a Mastermyr Style chest and a reproduction of the Duke of Umberto Writing Box, were exhibited during court this weekend. Other prizes, including several necklaces in Byzantine and Elizabethan styles, French and Spanish style cloaks, and a fully illuminated map of Atlantia, will be shown at later events to add to your enticement to travel.
> 
> "How may you divine the names of those who truly have traveled the most during this time?" you may ask. For this, we have designed and will have printed passports for those who wish to contend, and stamps will be sent out for each event. When you arrive at the event and check-in, it is simply a matter of having your passport book stamped. At the close of the Thirtieth Year, turn in the passport and be counted. Prizes will be awarded not only for overall Kingdom Travel, but also on the regional and local levels. There are quite a few prizes, and far more to be had in the traveling, so there will be no shortage of winners in this great adventure. 
> 
> For specifics, updates, and more information see the website at www.TravelAtlantia.net or contact your local seneschal who will be receiving further information in the coming week. Additional announcements will be made at future events and on this list.
> 
> So, we do encourage you to Promenade the whole of the Kingdom in this Pearl Anniversary Year that is to come.
> 
> 
> And don't forget your passport.
