Rules Entry Form

Greetings unto the Populace of the Kingdom of Caid!

Though it is still a year away, believe it or not, it is time for this Kingdom’s Artisans to start thinking about entering the Caid Arts and Sciences Fair and Pentathlon! This event is the Premier Showcase for the Artisans of this Kingdom. If you are an Artisan this is your moment to shine! And if you make anything at all no matter how large or small, you are an Artisan! It doesn’t matter whether you are an Apprentice or a Master or Mistress or your given Art, what is important is that you have a talent or knowledge that is valuable and you should share it!

The most important thing to keep in mind is that the deadline for registering to participate in the Arts and Sciences Fair and Pentathlon Competition is SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 2009. That may seen like quite a bit away, but trust me, deadlines have a way of creeping up on you when you are least looking!!!

I invite anyone who knows how to do anything to submit an entry for Pentathlon. You do not have to enter the Pentathlon Competition to submit an entry. The point is to share your talent and knowledge with the populace of this Kingdom. Who knows who you will inspire!

My dedicated Pentathlon Staff and I are committed to making this Arts and Sciences event as user friendly as possible and to that end we are soliciting feedback from the populace. If you have entered in the past, we want to hear what you liked about the event, and most importantly what you didn’t. If something happened that has discouraged you from entering in the future, please tell us. We cannot make improvements if we are not made aware of the problems. If you have never entered and are afraid to, tell us why! If there is something the staff can do to make Pentathlon easier to participate in for the budding artisan, please help us make that happen. If you have suggestions for new categories or changes, we want to hear about that as well! Our goal is to make this an event where Artisans wish to display what they have poured their hearts and souls into.

Please submit any commentary to the Pentathlon Autocrat. Or if you wish, find me at any event I may be at and talk to me in person. I request and encourage cross-posting of this missive to any pertinent email list. I firmly believe knowledge is Power. The more we know, the better the Pentathlon Staff can make this event be! Please help us make this possible.

Again, mark your calendars….the entry submission deadline for the 2009 Caid Arts and Sciences Fair and Pentathlon is SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 2009.
