<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><FONT color=#000000 size=3>Both of these demos are wonderful opportunities for us to put on a good show, introduce people to the SCA, and/or recruit new members, but unless we start NOW we are going to do the Barony a big disservice and hurt our image in the community.</FONT></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><FONT color=#000000 size=3>5 and 6 weeks may seem like a long time—but trust me (I’ve done this for 5 years with the Montgomery Middle School Demo) it is not a lot of time to coordinate who is able to do what and where—what “stuff” is needed—what “legal” issues do we have to deal with…. Who is going to be there and when are the actually going to show up (remember demos run on REAL time not SCA time).</FONT></P>
