Greetings from the Coastal Land Liaison for Gulf Wars!

For those of you who do not know the process, and who are not subscribed to
the Ansteorra-announce list (or just delete things as a matter of course), I
have included below a copy of the land registration process for the War this
year.  If you have questions not answered below, please fell free to contact
me and i will be happy to get you an answer.

Many groups, such as baronies, shires and households prefer to camp together
at the war. In order to do this, these groups must reserve land together by
following the process below.



·        All individuals must pre-register by 1/31/03

o       Please note the group you're camping with and your kingdom of
residence (i.e. Group: Barony of Bryn Gwlad, Kingdom: Ansteorra)

·        Contact your regional land coordinator (see list below) and inform
them that you wish a camp with a particular group. It is recommended (though
not required), that each group designate one person to work with the regional
coordinator on behalf of the group.

o       The following information must be provided to the Regional Land
Coordinator:

§         Your mundane & SCA name

§         Tent size

§         Size of common area request (such as a group kitchen or dining area)

·        Please note: group areas may be requested and the land staff will do
our best to provide them but we can not guarantee that you will get them

·        Group requests must be made by 2/15/03

FAQS:



"Can I get on the early on list?"

-        Sorry, but the early on list is very limited and has been closed for
some time now. We do, however, need some volunteers to stay late on Sunday and
help with clean up.



"How much room do we get per person?"

-        Each pre-reserved person receives 10X15 feet of land regardless of
how many people are camping in a given tent. For example, if two people are
sharing a 10X10 tent, they still get 10X15 of land for each of those people,
for a total of 20X15 feet of land. Any extra land can be used for common areas
or whatever the group wishes to do with it.



"What's the deal with group/common areas?"

-        The land staff realizes that groups usually need common areas for
kitchens, dining or just hanging out and we try our very best to reserve
enough land for your group to have one. We cannot, however, guarantee that
there will be enough available land hence we allow each group to request a
space, but warn that it is not guaranteed.



"What if we want to let our friend camp with us even though he didn't
pre-register?"

-        Each group will receive their allotted amount of land based on the
number of pre-registered people. That should leave enough land for people to
camp comfortably. If the group chooses to let more people in even though they
didn't pre-registered, it can, but the group will not receive additional land
and things will get very crowded.



"How can we get better land this year?"

-        The land staff is very aware of the layout of the land and what
happens when it rains. Every year we do our best to make sure that each group
gets good land but unfortunately we can't guarantee that it will happen -
there simply isn't always enough good land to go around. Still, if your group
camped in a particularly bad area last year, please advise your regional
coordinator, and we'll do our best to make things better this year.
