	~~[[Category~~:~~Mooneschadowe]]~~		New link: [[Mooneschadowe Demo Strategy and Tactics]]
	~~Back to~~ [[~~Elsa von Schammach\|Elsa's Homepage]]~~

	~~Points from the campus demo held 9-5-12. Will be adjusted as time/inspiration hit. Suggestions sent to elsa@hailmog.org will get the machine moving again.~~


	~~==Purpose of the Campus Demo==~~
	* To keep our existance in the forefront of campus awareness
	* To catch students early in their academic careers, when they have time for us
	* To perpetuate the effectiveness of Mooneschadowe ~~as a whole~~
	* To give a hand-up to those who need us but may not know it yet

	~~==Timing==~~
	We periodically kick around the idea of joining in '''Lights on Stillwater''' but that venue is not well suited to what we do. People attending Lights want for-free job-fair-type handouts that they can collect and be the cool person with the cool bag. We don't show well there.


	Try to get in the '''Campus Activities Mart''' - that was a main premise in reinstating our Registered Student Group status. They offer us a table that we can do whatever with on Library Lawn (or somewhere else? the stadium?). We've set up a pavilion over the table before - that was absolutely awesome and all the other clubs were jealous! But the point is that it gives us the same face time and credence as every other special-interest group on campus.

	~~===Which Day should we Schedule for? I'm so glad you asked!===~~

	~~The last week of August is historically the "sweet spot" for attracting new interest because:~~
	* Students aren't overcommitted with their classes yet
	* They may not have figured out their interests, so we can help!


	~~The first week of September is a good fall-back spot because:~~
	* It's often rainy or at least slightly cooler than August. Rainy demos have the advantage of being comfortable. Of course, they wash away our chalkings.
	* Some years, it's too hot to think earlier in August, so this week may be a better bet for the weather.


	It's not advisable to schedule later than that first week of September because we'll need to find garb, armor, and other assistance for everyone who shows interest, and we still have Triumphe to put on.

	~~==Prepwork==~~
	* '''Campus permits''' - for the space and time, for chalking, for any fliers we hang up
	* '''Fliers!'''
	* '''Business Cards!'''
	* '''Chalking!''' For a Demo ~~on Wednesday, Monday night is the right night to go. If you go on Tuesday night, it won't leave a whole lot of time for people to plan to stop by. There's a stencil of a knight somewhere.~~
	* '''O'Colly''' and maybe Newspress communication. Maybe write up a Press Release ahead of the fact? That would help a bit with the weird phrasing. Ask the Hospitaler's office for help - '''there are Media rules and considerations involved.'''
	* Coordinate meeting '''activities with Mooneschadowe'''. For example: Fighter Practice the next night, something happening over the weekend (Guard Practices are good!), Triumphe Orientation the next Tuesday.

	~~==Stuff to Bring==~~
	* '''Tables''' - 2-3, arranged in an L?
	* '''Table cloths!'''
	* '''Chairs''' - As many as we can get
	* '''Pavilions''' - 3 is a good number, including one with walls all around for changing/storage
	* '''Dog mat rugs''' - In AS XLVII, we had an open pavilion for hanging-out space and it was often used as such - the fighters rested there and talked to people between bouts
	* '''Foods''' - Some sammich things, some easy snacking things (no-mess finger foods are best - cherries and grapes go over well)
	* '''Drinks''' - Bottles of water, Gatorade
	* '''Display pieces''' - Fiber arts (textiles), Leather arts, Well-crafted armor, Pretty weapons, Framed scrolls, Beads on a string, Jewelry, Metal work
	* Everyone should wear '''nice garb''' if possible. Not necessarily the nicest thing they own, but the nicest thing that will tolerate the weather and the working. Gulf Wars and ~~Mooneschadowe shirts are a reasonable compromise.~~

	~~==Finish Work==~~
	* Mooneschadowe should show up in force for the first fighter practice, ready to help armor people who haven't tried it before. No one should be left without someone to talk to at the very least.
	* Triumphe Orientation Meeting. How to show up in style, what you need in order to take care of yourself, how to act like a person who knows things about stuff.
	* Post-Triumphe eventing plan.
