Currently, the GAF has no gender based catagories. Frankly I have no problem with this, the ladies are elligible to win in every class, and have a great deal of latitude in their costuming. Still, it would perhaps be appropriate to have an award at our muster that is exclusivly theirs.
The Name that sticks in my mind is "Lorena" the legendary "Girl I left behind Me" song of the Victorian era. Perhaps a poll among the ladies at the Grand Muster, of the woman amongst them most exemplfying the purpose and spirit of the GAF. She must be a competitor. Thus a woman could in theory win both the Brigade Championship, and the "Lorena" award. What think you?
I welcome discussion, and the name is only a suggestion from my BP smoke fogged mind.
