PAGE 12...Opening Weekend MNRF

[GoldenLass]

Ok, I'm new to RenFest (two years), but I want to try and get involved in the fest culture. (Is there such a thing??) At any rate, i was wondering if i could show up to breakfast, i just need to know what--if anything--you guys want me to bring. I'm sure i can atleast attempt--if not successfully manage just about anything. I also need to know when you guys are gonna get together.

if nothing else, i hope to see you all at the fest!!

Welcome aboard GoldenLass...

We love new comers! All our welcome to our breakfasts!

As for what to bring. It's basically a pot luck, bring whatever you like. Just post it and Sleepy will add it too the list.

If by chance you can't make breakfast, you can always find us at 10:00 am at the Mead booth. It's our morning meeting spot every day through out the run of 'fest!..

Look forward to seeing you this year!

[Lady_Lily]

Depending on what time it is, there is the potential I could possibly sneak out to say hello. Not sure if I'll make it to eat though.

[Lord Figaro]

We love welcoming new people GoldenLass, even if all you can bring is your own good cheer. That's plenty good enough for us.

[Willum Povy]

So far I'm planning on being there Friday night also so I should be able to run out reall quick and hang out a bit.   Don't know if I'll have anything foodwise.  Hope to see you all there though!

[Marietta Graziella]

Willum!  So good to see you!  I hope all is well on your end of the map.

GoldenLass, breakfast is a terrific place to meet some of the MN folk and get involved with the ren fest group.  I can't attest to having any particular culture  but we're a fun, welcoming bunch who love meeting new people.

Where to find us... 
Waiting at the gates for the parking lot to open up

Once into the parking lot, go on the road straight towards the ticket booths (privy's will be on your right), turn left, notice the big oak tree in the middle of the parking lot, there's us!   Sometimes we're organized, sometimes we're wandering about with a skirt in hand trying to relace it.  Oh wait, that was just me.    There is usually an R/F banner somewhere close by, otherwise look for a large group probably tieing each other up.

10:00 at the main mead booth.  NOT the table mead booth behind Bad Manor

Anytime during the day at Mac's Pub for The Dregs.

Hi Golden Lass,

I joined the R/F forum last year in July. I had never met anyone in person before that. I showed up at the breakfast (not in garb) and everyone was great. This is a great group of people and as you can see from the other responses you will be welcomed here.

I would say yes there is a fest culture. 

[Goody]

I usually dont make opening as it is my hometowns train festival but since I hafta miss a weekend (sign lang sat ) I plan to make it to  opening wearing a new gypsy outfit. will decide on what to bring as it gets closer!

Train Festival???  Did you say Train Festival???

I love trains!  More 'splaning please!

We are essentially a ghost town of what life was like 75 yrs ago in this area but we celebrate it anyway. For those that have seen "my shack along the track" (it was first house built across the tracks 100 yrs ago) imagine a YMCA on the end of my block and a hospital on the end of the next. we usda be boomin!!!

OK back on track... (yeah a train pun! we are the rails mighty mighty rails!) I am not on the list of attendees . Maybe I will bring peanut butter cookies, packed individually, to be slipped into a pouch for later partaking?

[Sorcha]

Rune and I will be there.  And it not Faire Breakfast without scones!

[MetheGreat]

*yawn* *blink, blink. looks at calendar*

Yipes! I guess I hit snooze on my fest alarm too many times.

Yep. Me'll be there.
Yep. Me'll bring food. Not sure what. (what do you want from me? I just woke up!)

If I can rangle a Ginger of the Dreaded variety, I'll bring her too.

That is, if we dont hit the snooze too many times.

Cant wait to see ya mates!

*off in a hurry to get 'stumes ready*

So its looking like at least 36 people so far for breakfast? Holy moley that's alot, then again this is my first year at opening weekend breakfast so i'm surprised. Should be a fun time, i'm so looking forward to this, and seeing new and old friends alike.

[DeadBishop]

I'm guessing this is a record!  Our crowd in the parking lot will be bigger than the one at front gate at this rate...

[Marietta Graziella]

Me the Great, darlin'!  Tis lovely to see yuh, dear.  Been wonderin' what happen' to yuh over the summer.

Hugs and all that sort!

*I name dropped you on another post...  let me see if I can find it...*

From the "Brush with Greatness" thread in Mundane section

Come to think of it... at MNRF we brush with greatness almost every festival weekend.  Her name?   

Me the Great!

[Lord Figaro]

Our breakfast meet ups in the morning are becoming the thing of legends I think. At the rate we keep growing each year, we may very well over take opening gate ceremony in size in no time.  I can't think of a better way to start the day though.
