[Namron] Growing the Barony

[Stacy]

I think that's this is an awesome Idea.  Also as the busy tourney season picks up maybe we can put out a "share a ride" list and make going to events more cost effective to everyone and see if we can't get numbers up that way to.  I know I'd be willing to take my vehicle and share rides to help in growth.

It is everyone's responsibility to be hospitaler's for the SCA so if you know someone who used to play and hasn't been around in a while or someone who thought of playing but didn't ever quite join, call them. Invite them to Medfaire. Invite them to Beltaine. Let's see if we can generate some interest.
