The first weekend in May, when Namron celebrates Beltane is a weekend of fun and frivolty.  However, it
is also an opportunity for Namron to select some of its Champions...Titled Bard, Brewer, Archer, Thrown Weapons, and 
of course A&S Champion!  To that end, I would like to announce to one and all the A&S competition.  I will be endeavoring to provide all 
artisans with a friendly, fun atmosphere for competition.
 
There will be two categories of competition and here are the "rules":
1.  On the serious side, a competition to help our participants prepare for Kingdom A & S (coming next spring).  
2.  Categories are static and research papers....bards and brewers will compete in a different championship the same
weekend.
3.  Along those lines we will have a panel of judges (hopefully some willing and eager...or just willing Laurels) 
use the Kingdom A & S judging forms to give feedback and to score participants.  Judging sheets can be found
on the Kingdom MOAS website.
4.  Our lovely Baroness will decide the winner in the event of a tie.
5.  Documentation is required.
6.  The competition will be held on Saturday, time to be announced.
7.  Participants need not be present to enter, they may send entries with a friend.
8.  Entries may not have been a winner at a previous competition....i.e., one of the Kingdom A & S champions chosen to
represent Ansteorra at Gulf Wars. 
 
The second category will be fun.  Bring your best/worst non-period A & S item with documentation as to
WHY it SHOULD have been/COULD have been period.  For example, that lovely silver lame princess gown you 
wore for Halloween documented that it COULD have been period if only lame/lounge singing had been invented.
Be creative, be fun.  This will be a Populace Prize competition with the prize to be provided by yours truly.  
 
Please pass this on to any and all who might have an interest.
