A little trivia for those planning archery related activities.

Not only is the SCA's 40th anniversary coming up in May.  But on 
September 25 1966, the first archery competition  in the society was 
held at the Third tourney in the West.  So the anniversary of that 
event is about six months away.  There was archery at the Second 
Tourney on June 25, 1966, but no competitions as such.

So, with this information in mind, anyone holding a archery competition 
around that time might consider doing something to commemorate the 
historic event. ;-)  I hope to have another coin made by then, with 
that theme.

The first combat archery was on July 29 1967 at the first war in the 
society, so its anniversary is next year.  I missed that one, but did 
get to fight at the second war in 1968.

Please pass this information on to your local archery lists.
