[Ansteorra-announce] Deadline extended for LPT

[John Hirling]

The deadline for submitting bids to host Laurel's Prize Tourney has been
extended to May 31, 2008.  LPT is a day event.  This is one of the easiest
Kingdom event to steward and provides a great opportunity for groups of any
size to host.

Requirements are:

1) a hall capable of handling displays.  (I've seen LPTs in as small an area
as 50' X 90' but it was crowded);
2) a room for bardic and performance;
3) a room for the Laurels;

It has been customary to offer a sideboard luncheon (can be part of the site
fee) rather than feast.
Some LPTs have also offered an area for fighters to practice or do
pick-ups.

Laurel's Prize Tourney is a body of work display or a display of a single
art showing improvements and variations over time. Sometime, individual
Laurels host mini-competitions in a particular arts area.  However, this is
not the main purpose for the event.

The items displayed at Laurels Prize are not actually "judged."  Rather, LPT
provides an opportunity for Laurels and artisans to dialog.  It is, however,
recommended that artisans provide some documentation with their display for
commentary on that aspect of presentation may also be helpful.
