[Ansteorra-archery] Royal Rounds at Events

[Doug Copley]

PR program YES! Banners, heralds, and stuff - YES!

We need to stay with the rest on everything else. We need to be a part of
what waterbearing supports, we need to be a part of the whole, and the
community - We cannot separate from them. Doing so will only hurt us.

Now, we can have some EXTRA - snacks, drinks, and things but we do not want
to pull ourselves away from the group.  Try to integrate! Do a class where
everyone else is. Go to class type events and host archery classes, I am
hoping to teach two of them at King's College on June 5th. When you are
champion, offer help and services, entourage, court, feast, whatever. Be
seen and let them know that YOU are THEIR Archery Champion.
