I usually go once a year. Hard to tell when my schedule will be open for it though. Usually it's a "honey let's take the kids to the rennfest today" kind of thing

I like munching into one of those big ol legs of turkey or something that they have there, but they put too much salt on em...

What's the entry fee?

I'm all for it. Those turkey legs are great! I also like the craftsmen/women there, you can get a lot of great information from them on working with metals, leather, or even bees wax.

I always get a turkey leg. Another personal favorite is the beef stew in a bread bowl.

I'd like to vote for October 15th or 16th. By then the leaves should be changing colors too (based on the fact that the leaves at my house are already changing colors... although way earlier than normal).

dork. just for that, i might dress up and wierd all of you out(but only if you're coming).

Shakespeare Weekend, October 15/16, works for me. i dno't work weekends anymore, so whenever. i do plan on showing up for Pirate Invasion weekend(Sept 24/25), though.

oh - for those who might be curious - here's the special event info:

August 27th & 28th: Children’s Weekend - featuring The Lost Princess!
All kids 11 and under are admitted free. From 11am - 12noon at the Boars Head Tavern all young lads and lasses are invited to meet the Lost Princess at a special “Princess Party”.
A special appearance by the knights from Medieval Times.

September 3rd, 4th, & 5th: Jousting Tournament
Thrill to the excitement as knights from all across North America battle to become the best jouster in the Kingdom.
Please note: Jousting is featured every performance day of the festival. This particular weekend is more...interesting...as far as the Joust is concerned. more swordplay, etc.

September 5th: Seniors Day

Selected shows are interpreted for the hearing impaired.

September 17th & 18th: Scottish Celebration
Celtic music, dance, and caber toss demonstrations.

October 1st & 2nd: Oktoberfest

October 8th & 9th: Romance Weekend
No place is more romantic than Revel Grove on a beautiful autumn day. Celebrate love! Special appearances by the knights from Medieval Times.

Nope but then again I go to this thing like randomly once every few years... I just remember the last 2 times I went, it was hot outside... and that kinda takes the fun out of the whole thing.
