<DIV><SPAN class=320250401-23102003><FONT face=Arial size=2>I wish to announce
to all who are interested that the next Kingdom Eisteddfod will be held next
January at Steppes Twelfth Night, in the Barony of the Steppes. I have not yet
decided on the format for the competition, but I will say that it will require
multiple performances, will not require variances of styles (i.e. it's okay to
perform nothing but songs or nothing but poems), and written documentation will
be required for at least some of the pieces.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
