On 22 and 23 November I will be hosting a gathering for all North American =
Regia members, and potentials, in the southeast US.  Of course anyone else =
across the continent is invited and transportation to and from the local ai=
rport can be provided.
Roughly defined, what should we look to accomplish at this get-together?  =
=20
                1)     First and foremost, just get to know everyone
    2)        Formation of a local group  (which will probably be a broadly=
 defined area)
a)       Purpose and scope of Regia
b)       How many actual members do we have?=20
c)       Obstacles ?
                                                                           =
i.      Membership levels
                                                                          i=
i.      What will it take to elevate membership?
d)       Cultural basis for group
e)       Application for group land grant to George Johnson and High Witan
3)       Workshops
a.        Kit construction
b.       LHE crafts
                                                                           =
i.      Bone/antler/horn working
                                                                          i=
i.      Any others by volunteer
c.        LHE kit construction
d.       Purpose and scope of Regia combat
Another rough outline; schedule:
                Saturday   -    Arrival (if necessary, Friday night arrival=
 is possible)
Group formation discussion
                                    Workshops
                Sunday     -   Workshops
                                    Departure
Please bring along any and all kit that you have that you would like to rev=
iew for appropriateness to Regia standards.  For the combat wombats, althou=
gh I don=92t have authority to qualify warriors, nor do I foresee any possi=
bility of combat training, you can certainly bring your war-gear and we can=
 compare to the MaA regulations.
Kit is not required for attendance and civvies will be appropriate anyway f=
or most of the workshops.
Speaking of workshops, does anyone have one for which they would like to do=
 a presentation?   What kind of workshop/discussion group would you like to=
 see?  I do have a lot of large power tools.  If you would like to do a wor=
kshop that requires a certain tool, let me know, I might already have it.
Crash space is in abundance=85possibly even a few beds on a first come firs=
t serve purpose.  So bring your sleeping bags (including for beds as I migh=
t not have enough sheets=85hey, I=92m a batchelor!).  If you would like, th=
ere is plenty of ground outside for tents, and please feel very welcome to =
bring along any period tent.  I do have a dog and she is a bundle of energy=
 and very friendly.  Her house space tends to be the kitchen.  Children are=
 very welcome as I have a 12 year old and he would welcome the company with=
 enough Legos to even entertain the adults.
Directions?  Proceed to the Mississippi Gulf coast.  On I-10, look for the =
exit to I-110 (Biloxi/Kessler AFB), which I believe is Exit 47.  This will =
take you directly towards the beaches.  Be very careful, I-110 ends in an a=
brupt sharp right onto Highway 90.  Follow 90 west.  You will pass the Bilo=
xi lighthouse on your left.  Proceed through a couple of traffic light sets=
.  Go through, staying on 90W, the set of traffic lights that turn right to=
 Keesler AFB.  Pass the Leggett United Methodist Church on the right and th=
en the Methodist retirement center immediately after.  After a couple of bl=
ocks, there will be two large, square, sets of condos on the right.  Immedi=
ately after the second condo, which is a peachy-pink color, turn right onto=
 St. Charles Avenue.  Be very careful, the exit lane from Highway 90 is ver=
y short, and the traffic along here moves at about 50+ mph.  Proceed up St.=
 Charles to near the very end.  My house is #185, second on the left from t=
he end.  It is white with a separate garage and half circle-ish gravel driv=
e; should be a blue Dodge minivan parked there.  My home number is (228)374=
-9598.
Please respond to me off group at vinlander@cableone.net so that I can get =
a head-count.
Looking forward to meeting everyone.
Bill (Leifr)
