[Gatesedge] A Youth Championship at the next Stargate Baronial?

[Maria]

Sig,

I think that's a great idea.  I have long believed
that there should be more things for the Youth to do
besides help whoever is in charge of Childrens
activities at an event.  I think that not only should
the Youth Championship be a Baronial thing, I think
that we should adopt it at other events also.

I will try to make it to the next Gates Edge populace
meeting with a proposal about this idea.  Maybe we can
head the Barony in an attempt to give our Youth in the
Society some more interesting activities to be
involved in.
