I second Melody's words regarding 7:30 starting times for meetings. I guess becoming a parent has opened my eyes to the changing face of Ansteorra: more families are playing...or not playing because they can't attend late meetings...for example. I know you can't please everyone all the time, or be all things to all people. However, I would strongly advocate for reviewing the starting time for populace. My son and I tried to attend populace meetings when we first moved to the Barony, but the time and location were not feasible for a young child. Now that Nicholas is in Elementary School, it's impossible. I would hazard a guess the some middle school parents would agree that the time and distance factor is very restrictive.
With a heavy sigh I gave up one phase of my SCA life upon becoming a parent and entered another. In retrospect, however, I am a far richer person for doing so. I just wish I could occasionally visit that other world. Revising the meeting time and place may prove to be a good starting place.
Just my two cents,
