<DIV><FONT face=Arial>greetings </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>sounds good , pester away ; )</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>couple things I would add, </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>1st , we need heralds !!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>there always seem to be people wanting to learn to be
field heralds, but they are always hanging out at the heavy field , try to gab
a younger one</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>( gently, no damaging the heralds ) early , and
convince them to herald for the range , or better yet , 2 heralds , that way
one can announce the field, and one can run back to the other side of the site
to let people know what's about to start, or when the final round is about to
start. and both heralds could trade off . put a little ceremony in your tite
shoot, have the king / queen/prince/princess/ baron/ baroness/ your girl
friend / the ladies of the burnt meat , /somebody / anybody / audience , in a
chair in the shade ( reminds me we need shade for both participants and the
adience ) and do a procession of competing archers archers before the
title shoot .</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>like you said have more than one shoot, so that your
titled shoot can be fast paced , it should be dropping people fast till
you get it down to 5 or 10 people , audiences like activity , they want to be
able to tell whos winning , have the heralds announce who is leading per round
, or even top 3 places , explain to them before each round what the archer
will attempt to do, etc.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>eldern hills has earned a reputation for truly " evil "
shoots requiring archers to test their limits , due to this it is not uncommon
for them to have people bringing their own sun shades down to the range , so
that they can watch the shooting , at a recent tourney , it was announced in
court , ( and not by an archer ) that watching the shoot had been like
watching a pro golf tourney , ( wisper wisper from the audience , then twang
from the archer , then lots of applause as the archer hit his mark , weather
he could see it or not, and the rounds went on neck and neck , till finaly
someone won .</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>2nd . we need more color ( yes , I'm guilty ) too many
times , you go to an event , there is no color except the targets , the
cloths, and the arrows , none of which will attract people to see what's going
on . we need banners on poles, we need champion flags on our safety ropes , we
need colored flags on poles holding up our safety rope.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>anything to ...well , on second thought , almost
anything to draw attention to the range .</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>( no, blackmoon will not be putting on his barbarian
leathers and belly dancing to bring more people to the range , we don't want
them being ill when they get there ; )</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>be safe, be happy, have fun</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Arthur </FONT></DIV>

</STRONG></FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><FONT
color=#0000ff><STRONG></STRONG></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><FONT color=#0000ff><STRONG>I have
only recently been able to get back into archery....having twins does that
to you!.....for my own enjoyment and as a archery marshal. So here are my 2
cents (and its probably worth about as much!) on what i have seen when
attending events and shoots.</STRONG></FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT

<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>Target
Archery isnt seen as important to most people as the other
activities......but the light weapons fighting wasnt as important as the
heavy fighting not so long ago. The same goes with all of the other
activities. All of them were small to start out with and it was because of
the people who really loved that aspect to keep them going and to make them
grow. To make anything grow it has to get peoples attention.
</FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT
color=#0000ff></FONT></STRONG></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>To
get attention it has to appeal to the masses. It has to be something
that makes people say...."Yeah i want to do that!" It also has to have
dedicated people to take on the challenge and do the
work.</FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT
color=#0000ff></FONT></STRONG></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>It
has to be brought to the attention and supported by the
people with higher stations. "Especially" any "titled"
competition.</FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT
color=#0000ff></FONT></STRONG></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>It has to
be promoted. If the general populace isnt even aware of what is happening
down on the archery field then they will not show up to see if it is
something that they want to get involved in.</FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT
color=#0000ff></FONT></STRONG></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>It is
going to be up to all of us that are passionate about this to make it
happen. </FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT
color=#0000ff></FONT></STRONG></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>Here are
my ideas of how to improve things....there has got to be more people to help
run a range or shoot. If it is left up to one poor soul to provide the
targets, haul them there, set them up, run the thing and then take it all
down......of course they wont have the energy or desire to spend any more
time out there! </FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT
color=#0000ff></FONT></STRONG></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>We need
more certified marshals that are willing to help run an event. If the
work load is broken up then it wont all fall on just a few peoples
shoulders. </FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT

<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>The
details of the shoots and tourneys need to be planned out and made known far
in advance so it can be listed on the event sites and in the upcoming event
publications. </FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT

<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>The
details of the archery shoots need to be announced at every Morning
Court so the populace will know what is going on for that weekend and people
encouraged to go take part or just to loan their support by attending. The
children really need to be encouraged to attend. You could even make up a
sign with all of the details listed and place it somewhere that gets more
foot traffic. </FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>If there
is going to be a Titled shoot then it should be held at this or that time to
fit along with the schedule for all of the other Titled activates.....but
lets face it, not everyone wants to go to all of those....so why not have
the range open? Have a fun shoot....a new persons shoot....a Royal Round,
ect....ect. If you get enough marshals to help out then the range could be
up and running the whole weekend. Even if someone only runs it for 30
minutes it will give the others a chance to go see other things, to take a
break.......or even be able to participate!!!</FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT

<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>As for a
Titled shoot....i completely understand that this should be a challenging
shoot to determine who the winner will be....but i have seen far to many
events with only a titled shoot and if you are a new comer.... are knocked
out the first round and dont get to shoot the rest of the entire
event.......then why travel the 4 hours to attend? (except of course to
attend other things) but i for one am mostly there for the archery and
i am sure there are allot of others that are the
same.</FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT
color=#0000ff></FONT></STRONG></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>Make up
some fun targets!!! Go to your archery practice and ask everyone what they
think would be fun to do at the event that your area is going to do. If you
all come up with some really cool targets then make sure you announce what
they are going to be to get as much attention as possible!!! Figure out what
materials or help you would need, get as many of your local archers willing
to help get it all made up.....this will also make them feel more part of
the event....and if you need extra help or funds announce it at your
populace meetings and post about it on the mailing
list.</FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT
color=#0000ff></FONT></STRONG></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>Funds for
all of this is one of the biggest problems....have raffles, or fund raisers
to help pay for materials and equipment. Ask any and all local artisans to
donate something if they can. Again...announce it in the populace meetings
and mailing list! You can have a fund raiser at your local event....but you
can also plan a fun shoot at your local practice range and have one.....get
the word out that you are having a special fund raising shoot or raffle if
you can get a nice prize donated. </FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=EC_546102404-09092008><STRONG><FONT color=#0000ff>I am
probably forgetting allot of other ideas but i am tired! and may pester you
all with yet another rambling post! LOL</FONT></STRONG></SPAN></DIV>
