We had discussed going to the
Michigan Renaissance Festival in Holly Michigan
as a club event for August or September.
Currently, the official site has not been updated
to show the weekend themes for this year. What I
have found is the following.
The Renaissance Festival will run weekends from
August 14 through September 26, plus September 6.
It will be open 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM each day it's
open. Ticket prices are $13.95 for adults, $5.95
for youth 5-12, $10.75 for seniors 60 and over
and children four and under are free. I am still
trying to find out what group rates would be. You
can check out the unofficial site at
http://www-personal.umich.edu/~liamr/renfest/festival.html
or the official
site at http://members.aol.com/Renfestmi/.
Another fair worth mentioning is Grand Valley
State University's Renaissance Faire. It is a two
day affair happening on October 9 and 10. It's on
the campus of Grand Valley State University in
Allendale Mich, and runs from
10:00 to dusk. Admission is free. Vender's tables
are free. They are still looking for more
venders. Acceptable products to sell include
oils, perfumes, incense, silver and beadwork,
jewelry, basket weaving, clay pottery, candles,
art, leatherwork, and more. They would also like
entertainers: juggling, vocal and instrumental
music, story telling, dancing, dramatics and
more. You can check out their site at
www2.gvsu.edu/~gvren/ or call (616) 895-1312.
