Direction to Site



There’s a lot of outdoor space for period pavilions, but please be safety mindful of the space we do have around the listfields by allowing generous walking paths (2-3 feet) around and between pavilions. Please leave at least a 10 foot gap between the listfield and your pavilion because the barroom brawl can get a little rowdy.
If your pavilion is in the way, you’ll be asked to move it or take it down. The general set-up should be aimed at viewing rather than camping.
Space is first come, first served. The only reserved area will be for merchants.

  If you have questions regarding activities, please contact the Staff!

Fundraiser:
There will be a Silent Auction held in the main entrance room.

Donations will be accepted from the opening of the site until 2:15pm. Bids will be accepted from 11:00am until 3:30pm.
Donations should be useful to a SCAdian in the context of our game. Anything will be accepted as long as it fits within a Medieval theme. Some suggestions: fabric (even scraps can be useful to someone else), garb, tools for specific projects, research books, feast gear, completed projects that need a new home, tent decor, etc.
Please pick up your winning items from 3:30pm until 4:00pm. At 4pm, your bid will be given away to the next highest bidder.
All proceeds will go the Kingdom Travel Fund as a thank you for Their Majesties and their Excellencies attending our celebration of 12th Night in January.
We thank you in advance for your donation to this worthwhile cause
.
