Sharing our talents!

Greetings unto the populace of Rhuddglyn!

The Lords and Ladies of our shire, be they young or young at heart, possess many talents, skills and abilities. One of our greates strengths lies in our willingness to share our knowledge. In order to plan some arts and science activites in that we may continue to pass on knowledge and grow as a shire, I would kindly ask that you complete the attached questionairre. A list will then be generated from which activities will be planned and also a list of compiled resources will be made available for access by all memebers.

I would encourage you all to "think outside of the box" and to seriously consider your latents. For example: perhaps you enjoy and have a talent for drawing, but dont see how that applies to the SCA. Well, there are those of us with no drawing skills whatsoever that could use help with the designs on our devices , or other articles. Do you play a musical instrument? Perhaps you like to sing? At last fall's event, quite by accident during the cleanup a group of us started singing "show tunes"(sorry Bill!) We didn't sound half bad! Maybe we could start a singing group?!?! Enjoy woodworking? Maybe you'd like to learn how to make bows and arrows, even if you dont want to become an archer!

Please complete the questionairre and return to the A&S officer. You can email the questionairre back to me at Halla.

Phone Number:

Best time of day to contact you:

1) What hobbies, crafts, interest, etc do you have outside of the SCA? (List all and please be specific, eg. dont just say sewing - say embroidery, crewel work, tapestry, making clothes, etc.)

2) What SCA related talents, skills, abilites do you currently have? (Again be specific!)

3) What would you like to learn to do?

4) Would you be willing to teach what you know?

Please return this questionnaire ASAP!
Thanks very much.
