awards for Shires, but this doesn't entirely answer my question. It seems
that these awards are largely given only for service. If there is a
structure in place to give a Barony the power to recognize those contributions
which are outside the realm of service, whether it be on a Baronial or Canton
level, then why are they not utilized? Service is indeed something worthy
of recognition and praise, but the martial and artistic communities contribute
just as much in their own venues to our enjoyment of the game. I am just
of the firm belief that we need to encourage growth and participation in
all sectors, not merely in one. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
