What is a Renaissance Faire Anyway?

Quoting from this "all things Renaissance" site: A Renaissance Faire is an amalgam of many things. Its partly a craft fair, its partly historical reenactment, its partly performance art.

The purpose for very own Maeser Renaissance Faire is to have fun earning money for our new school. Specifically to raise money for a new portable PA system and to buy books for the library.

At the faire you will find:

• community craft booths
• student run booths
• student performances
• a silent auction
• a raffle
• games for the kids
• food for the family
• kings, queens, princes, princesses, knights and ladies in waiting

Come join in the fun on Saturday May1 from noon to 4:00 p.m. at the Lindon Park! If you'd like to volunteer to help with any of the many committees, contact Sally Gross at sallykaygross@yahoo.com. We need you!
