I'm very much looking forward to this event- and it's not open to the public, so it'll be a great chance to chill a little bit, and if it's well supported, it'll be an annual event. There's a private Dark Ages event which is enormous and well supported in another state which is on most people's list of events not to miss, but nothing for us later people, so this event is starting up with a view to being the same sort of thing, only a later time period.
I'm only day tripping with a friend as her work schedule doesn't permit an overnight stay, but photos of the venue show a lake with medieval-type jetty and shelter, a guildhall for talks and a very cool tavern made in early medieval style. This is all on private property, and in the past they have run dark age events which I've not been to, but the venue looks amazing. I'm not sure whose trebuchet is in one of the photos, but I sincerely hope it belongs to them and we get to play with it.
I've signed up to do a button making workshop because it's the thing that lots of new people need help with and since events are back on again now, quite a few groups have had an influx of new members. A bit timely, because I'm working on a kirtle upgrade which needs all the buttons made and sewn on before the event.
The clock's ticking!
