color=#0000ff size=2>Not being a heraldic type, I sought assistance on a
couple of occasions to advance this effort, however, distractions diminished a
persistent effort on my part and "life" frequently happened among those I in
whom I had sought council. There had been discussion of altering the Eastern
Tower to simply the "Towers" in order to allow more leeway in issuing different
"flavors" of the award, (i.e., Eastern for static or performance A&S,
Western for martial activities, Central perhaps for excellence among our youths,
etc.) This would alleviate the need to go through the submission and
approval process with the college of heralds over and over for each new
"flavor". Hopefully our successors can fair better than I in seeing this effort
through. It is an excellent topic and I am pleased to see it getting a bit of
attention. Thank you Mistress Caterina! :-)</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

We do have one for A&S, but it is rarely awarded. We have talked of combat

you for your reply. I am aware that there are Kingdom 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></DIV>
