>>Greetings All,
>>     Saw a little boy in a wheelchair today who totally charmed me and was
>>reminded of something they do in Caid that might be worth doing here if we
>>can get the Kingdom of Artemisia behind it.  Several years ago Caid was
>>contacted by the Make A Wish Foundation, which is an organization that
>>arranges to grant wishes to terminally ill children.  Seemed there was a
>>little boy who wanted to be a prince.  Well, it was so arranged and a
>>special event was held in which the little boy was "adopted" by the King
>>and Queen and crowned Prince in an elaborate ceremony.  All fighting was
>>done in his honor, all the groups that make up the kingdom sent
>>represenatives with gifts and the kingdom outfitted the boy and his entire
>>family.  It was a fantastic and truly special event.  Every year
thereafter
>>Caid has held the Make A Wish Tournament, with the foundation choosing a
>>child whose wish it is to experience medieval life.  I think it's
something
>>every Kingdom should consider doing, why not Artemisia next?  Especially
>>when we consider that not very often do we get a chance to do really
>>meaningful community service this seems like an ideal way to achieve
>>something we can all be proud of.  And as that "season of giving" rapidly
>>approaches shouldn't we consider a little giving that really means
>>something?  I'd like to know what you all think.
