We might be getting a renaissance faire in Cloudcroft!

Russet brought home an email last night dated January this year about the concept of putting one on, either mid June or early August. It would definitely be dog-friendly, and hopefully fun. I sent one of the organizers the URLs to Chivalry Sports/Renaissance Store, Museum Replicas, and the AZ Ren Fest.

It will be more along the lines of a street faire than the Devonshire Faire as there just isn't the talent pool to pull from up here AFAIK. And it will definitely be dog-friendly as it'll be on Burro Street and Zenith Park, so lots of open area. We see tourists with dogs all the time up here.

If this happens.... WHEEE!

Well, it's 90 miles to the Las Cruces Ren Fest, and 500 miles to the AZ Ren Fest, which is where we're going Thursday!

Your situation is why you make arrangements with lots of peoples so you can share rides and hotel rooms just like a convention. :-)

I loved the California RenFaire when I was living there.

I was just going to say that Utah badly needs one. Then I went and googled it, and found this: http://www.umrf.net/

Waah. I just looked at the site, and it looks like it's a relative small gathering.

*sigh* It's 400 miles away, so it would mean a hotel, and travel/vacation time. If it's as small as it looks, it wouldn't be worth it.

Ooops.. 250 miles. Still too far.
