<DIV>While I was reading about the Baronial awards on the new website (which
looks great, I might add), I noticed that there are no Baronial awards for
fighting or for the arts, only for service. I found this to be most
curious, as the Kingdom from whence I came had awards for all three on the
Baronial, Shire, and Canton levels. Is there anyone who can speak to
this? Is this a Kingdom-wide thing, or just local? In my
experience, I have found that recognition at a local level can do much to
inspire the populace to further their knowledge and practice of the arts, be
they martial or otherwise.</DIV>
