[Artemisia] Uprising Media Release

[John D Gibson]

Soon as I can get my hands on a copy (My boss was supposed to bring me one
today, he lives in Shelly, but he decided to take the day off) I plan on
scanning parts.  The overview I had of one copy only had one major error...
I'm not Sure how Baron Edward will feel about being called "Premier Baron of
1000 Eyes, Don Vilhelm Silberhammer".  The rest was great, so soon as I can,
I plan to post highlights (Unless I can get a release from the paper, then
I'll post it verbatum.)

First of all, thanks for all your kind words about the use of the farm for
Uprising.  Understand that I grew up there, and mostly the fields were work.
Lots and lots of work, my whole life.  To see those same fields transformed
into a medieval village for a few days was amazing!  On Friday my Mom came
down and we drove the Uprising roads, looking at the camps, and all the work
that the Barony (and Corisande and Roland and I) had done to get the place
ready.  Mom was quite amused, and happy to see the land put to good use.

I've been watering the former camping areas, and they'll be returning to
normal condition very shortly.  The grass may even get taller....

I'm happy to report that the SCA treated the property very well, and there
was no significant damage that I could find.  Now the porta-potty guys
picking up their "stuff" on Monday were a slightly different story, but no
big deal.

So, on to the header.  Last night a friend of mine called and said that the
local paper, the Shelley Pioneer, did a story on Uprising.  I picked up a
copy and we made the front page.  I'm REALLY happy to say that Media Officer
(Robert Bedlam, I'm talking about you) did a dynamite job guiding the press
around, as the story is very good, stuck with the SCA, Inc. media package,
and put our organization in the best light possible.  I read that with a
sigh of relief I can tell you!

So, please keep your ideas floating around out there.  Uprising next year
will be better, the site better, and the fighting fields better.  A good
time will be had.  No promises on the weather however.....sorry.

YIS,

Alan
