<DIV>Greetings Ponte Alto,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I seemed to have misinterpreted what was conveyed to me. The Marshal Activities at Demo is not forbidden. The way in which it was handled in conveying information to Kingdom is where our troubles came in. Marshal activity for Demo's is outlined in the Marshal's handbook. I've attached the reply I received from Jarl Timoch below, when I requested we be able to do Scott Cozad's demonstration. So that everyone will understand there is a method for applying to the SCA to do Marshal DEMO's and how to go about it. I am also encouarageing Scott to try doing the Fieor (sp) demonstration at the June Demo because his efforts are appreciated, and because it's an interesting form of Marshal Art.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Any questions?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>YIS,</DIV>
<DIV>Lady Maria-Therese de Normand</DIV>
<DIV>Seneschal, Ponte Alto</DIV>

To answer your question specifically, I do not speak FOR the kingdom Seneschal. Whatever she said goes. She did ask me. If this is an SCA demo then no martial activities may occur outside of what the SCA allows. Your local marshal should be able to show you the rules that specifically cover this. If this is an SCA demo which includes marshallate covered activities, then the usual drill for cards and waivers must be adhered to. Those are the (briefly summed up) rules. I could not download your pictures, so I cannot comment further.</SPAN></FONT></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.5in"><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Recently one of my Barony (Ponte Alto), Scott Cozad, contacted the Kingdom Waiver Secretary to see if he would need waivers to do a Marshal Demonstration at a Demo. Ann was informed and it sent off a red light in her mind. She contacted you and the Kingdom Chatalaine. The outcome of these communications was that Ponte Alto/SCA could not sponsor a demo with Marshal Activity that was not an SCA approved Marshal Activity. I hope I've got this right. Please correct me if I haven't. </SPAN></FONT></P></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.5in"><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">The style of Demo Scott Cozad would like to give in June is one he's done before with a living history group. Below I've attached his idea as he conveyed it to the Ponte Alto list, because I think it is a good idea. I ask that you reveiw it and either approve or deny the idea. The thought of not having some sort of Marshal demostration at demo's has kicked up an e-mail flurry on my Barony's list. They want it. They think it a integral part of showing and educating the public about the middle ages. Care will be taken in these demo's and children will not come into hazard. Any questions please feel free to contact me, and I will get the experts on this subject in contact with you as soon as possible.</SPAN></FONT></P></DIV>

I had planned on doing<BR>this with slow work. By that I mean slow and<BR>controlled movements with the wasters. I have been<BR>studying these techniques for several years and have<BR>done the kind of demo I will outline with living<BR>history groups that I am involved with.<BR><BR>The idea is to show what historical combat looked like<BR>and not what you see in movies. I was going to do<BR>this with wooden wasters and work with my demo partner<BR>beforehand. I chose the longsword because it is an<BR>impressive weapon and it is easier to see what is<BR>being done even at a distance.<BR><BR>I have pictures from an event that I did a few
weeks<BR>ago at home. It is very similar to what I had hoped<BR>to achieve with the SCA school demos.&nb sp; I will put<BR>those pictures online when I get home tonight.<BR><BR>My intention in asking about doing this demo was not<BR>to stir up a storm. I wanted to dot all my "t's" and<BR>cross my "I's". I am saddened by the decision not to<BR>be allowed to do this demo.<BR><BR>Cheers,<BR>Scott Cozad<BR>Edward de Clare in the SCA.</SPAN></FONT></P></DIV>
