HISTORICAL RECORD KEEPING
CONTEST

In keeping with this being the
40th Anniversary of Daffodil, there will be an Art & Sciences
Contest: Historical Record keeping.
Contestants would submit one of their own treasured memories of an
Event in Seagirt’s History recorded in a historical fashion:
Calligraphy, Cuniform tablet, Painting, tapestry, etc. Poems or
songs will be accepted but must also be accompanied by a written
copy, and equal consideration will be given to the performance and
the written version.

Thank you Master Tristan for
suggesting this wonderful contest!
