Greetings unto Our most talented populace in the great Barony of Cynnabar! 


The time is fast approaching where We will have to choose a new Champion to foster the Arts and Sciences within Our fine Barony. We look upon this event with many emotions -- both glad to 
begin a new season, and sadness of having to release Arina fraan Traentorp, Our second Baronial A&S 
Champion, from service. We will always treasure the kindness, 
guidance, and encouragement she has shown not only to Us, but to the 
citizens of this Barony and region during her tenure as Our Champion. 
We were well represented -- and We thank her for sharing her time and 
talent with everyone. 

As promised from the business meetings, here's more 
information about competing in the A&S Champions Tournament which 
will be held at Wassail on December 8th. If this is something that is of interest of you...please read on...and RSVP!

The A&S Champion's Duties:

	* Represent and encourage the diverse arts and sciences for the Barony of Cynnabar within the group, regionally, and Kingdom-wide. 
	* Work with the Baronial MOAS to encourage the diverse Arts within the Barony
Display and teach locally, regionally and Kingdom-wide; Encourage and help others to do the same 
	* Swear fealty 
	* Maintain, repair, expand upon and wear with pride the Regalia of your station 
	* Stand up in Court and attend your Baron/Baroness (Courts might 
be: Wassail, Terp, Pennsic, Grand Tourney, 12th Night, and others as 
able or requested) You are part of the retinue! 
	* Advise the Baron/Baroness on successors, pay attention to those that might someday have your job. 
	* Be an inspiration! 
	* Have fun!To compete you will need to:

	* Bring your A&S entry -- which can be either a display or in the form of performance.
Items should be set up by 2:00 pm; Performances will be held during court ... which will be held after dinner. 
	* Documentation is encouraged, but not required.
Please RSVP to their Excellencies if you plan to display or perform. (we need to reserve space)

Note on performances:
Performances should be at a reasonable length for a court audience -- if you have 
questions, please ask. Should you require music, please bring a 
cds/files, player, or musicians, as desired. 

Documentation, should you have any, may be placed in display for advance review. See note below about groups.

This competition is open to individuals who are non-Laurels. Groups may 
perform to show an individual's art, if desired. For example: if someone
 writes a period-style song and would like to have it performed by a 
group, they would note that their composition skills are what's being entered into the competition. If you have questions regarding this sort of situation, please
 ask Us for clarification prior to the event! 

Selection:
The Champion will be selected by Us, along with advice of the Laurels from the Barony and Our current A&S Champion, Arina. The new Champion 
will be announced in court.

Please remember to RSVP so we can plan for table space and court time. Again, any questions or concerns, please email or ask!

In service,
Hannah and Tairdelbach
