<P>Unto the populace of Ponte Alto Greetings,</FONT><FONT face="Times New Roman"

<P>With spring melee season and Pennsic fast approaching, we have started
producing fighting tabards so our army can go onto the field and proudly
represent Ponte Alto. In order that enough tabards can be made to outfit all our
rapier and heavy fighters, your help is deeply needed. I would ask that all
those gentiles who can fine the time in their busy schedules to each help
produce one or two tabards. In addition, I would ask that with each tabard a
favor was also created so that the fighter could carry it into battle and honor
the gentle who made the tabard worn. Fabric will be provided at both the
Thursday rapier practice and the Sunday practice in Pimmit Park. In order to
make this endeavor as much fun as possible, there will also be a sewing get
together at 7:30 on Wednesday the 24th of April at our house. If you
questions or comments feel free to call me at 703-212-9080 during the day or at
703-643-1372 during evening hours. Also you can e-mail me at <A

<P>Yours in service</P>
