[Namron] Growing the Barony

[Lee McGoodwin]

Invite them to come with you out to our Get together March 2 and/or April 13th, to see how we prepare for events, War, etc and just have some fun.

Greetings all,
I think that Vigdis makes a great point here. 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. 
YIS,
HE Caterina

Greetings, all. This evening I listened to His Majesty's presentation which
was essentially the same as the one he gave at Red Tape last weekend. It's
somewhat disheartening to look at the numbers -- event attendance and
number of groups both down by a third over the last six or seven years.

But it did get me thinking about possible steps. I know many people are
thinking about Gulf War right now, but after that comes Med Fair and the
spring eventing season - prime time to cultivate new or returning members.
What if we made a special effort before Med Fair to reach out to people
with whom we've had contact -- prospective members who never quite joined,
or members who have drifted away from the barony -- and invited them to
join us there, to watch the fighting and hang out for a while?  And then we
could encourage them to come to Beltane ....  Surely each of can think of a
person or two to contact.  Whaddya think? I've already sent out a couple of
"hey, haven't seen you for a while" messages which might or might not bear
fruit. (And if this sort of thing happens already, cool. )

Vigdis
