thanks, i just wanted to get the ball rolling. glad you gave it a big push.

i think on st paddy's blood bath there will probably be a war practice that sunday as that is what usualy happens. i will try to find out for sure.

[lilscutt]

so i guess as a group we need to start deciding what we are going to in the next month bc all fights on the same weekend between markland and sca. i say we do one of each but i will do what yall do

[hypo]

I like the idea of mixing it up, but I also like the idea of saving money and staying close to home. so we do need to discuss this.

Hey Thomas,

you have anything to do with or plan on attending "On Target" May 29-31, 2009 Annapolis, MD. Do you think it would be worth going to play around or is this a real serious event???

[Thomas Fitzcharles]

Good Day, Doug.

I have not gone to On Target in a few years now. It is a major target archery event. There are no other activities at this event. It was fun, but you tended to lose allot of arrows and there was poison ivy everywhere. I had not really thought about this event yet, but I could be talk into it if other wanted to shoot.

Sincerely

Thomas

[hypo]

Maybe, I just thought that I would try to diversify a little.

[ahrimen]

lets start the discussion about what events to go to.

cold war vs blood bath

cold war will have melee on sat. but it of course it is markland. im sure there will be a war practice sun at blood bath. i would love to do an iron man weekend but i not sure i will be able to. if iron man is the way we are gona play this one and i cant do both i will just meet you all at blood bath on sun. if it turns out no War Practice at blood bath on sun then obviously we're all in for cold war .

defending the gate vs d&t im not so sure about D&T id rather do defending the gate with the black spear guys. DTG is farther away but not by much and last year was fun until eqainus called a knight an "ass hole" then it got awesome!
and i dunno if i have the temperament to deal with alvin this year.

[lilscutt]

I vote for defending the gate and cold war, I feel it is due honor to my car and drive by that tree at defending the gate and make sure i dont hit it

[MorGrendel]

Yes, there is a war practice on Sun the 15th.

[Rachel]

How does gulf war factor in with cold war/blood bath? I'm for blood bath on sunday but wouldn't mind cold war saturday. Defending the gate is good and I have 0 interest in D&T.

[MorGrendel]

bump, added events

[Titus]

May 3rd and April 5 are blackspear practices, can they please be added.

[hypo]

can you confirm that Black Spear is still having the practice and not doing the interkingdom practice the same day April 5th.
