Gah!  Looks like so much fun!  I wish I could attend, but my cousin is getting married that day...  Have a pint for me everyone who attends!

[Lord Virgil]

This will have to go on the calendar of must attend events.  It will be great to see my Pirate friends a week earlier than usual!

[max and kate]

Great! Let all your friends know and visit the web site posted above, I'm working on getting a group rate at a hotel for those who choose to spend the night. More details to follow.

[Carl]

Well there goes that free weekend we had with no plans. YES!

[max and kate]

Sorry no group rate for rooms as they want money down on a block of 10 and if we don't fill the rooms I'll be eating the cost. There are many places to stay in the area and the Pirate Lords will update them on their web site soon.

Thanks no, I can't attend, but I wanted to bring something to your attention.

A tiny town near me is having, what they are calling, a Pirate Festival.

I'm dressing up and going to see what it is. Even if I just buy myself some shiny and a corn dog, it will be worth it. Not to mention the attention from unsuspecting patrons.

I'll look into that festival but I doubt we'll be going.

[Carl]

We lived in Greenbush for 10 years just north of there .Have lots of friends in the area, We are supposed to have company that weekend but if they do not arrive looks like it's time for a road trip. Oh and I see they have a costume contest aaaaargh!!

[max and kate]

I just checked the Brethren of the Great Lakes web site and there is a link to hotels up for the Muskegon area. If you need a place to stay check it out.
