The Masquerade Ball, that is. Received a mysterious invitation with no costs mentioned, and only vague hints at the activities.
I did learn that if I buy a GOLDEN ticket to the ball, I get to use  the bathrooms, or something like that...

More information can be found on the new website.  http://www.texrenfest.com/masquerade-ball/ It reads you have you own private restroom facilities reserved for ticket holders vs. the ones in the main ball room.

Proud to say we have sold about half of the first 1,600 ticket on the first day.

Thanks, Terre . . . nice virtual tour.  What will be the policy on photography at the ball?

Good question.

We will have staff photographers taking picture to build our morgue.  Other professional photographers will need to be credentialed and they can do that at marketing@texrenefest.com.  Other than that, I don't think I can stop or would stop personal cameras or cell phone cameras so that is wide open.  Hope this answers your question.

How about in camp transportation? For those of us who camp in the opposite corner of the campground that is a VERY long walk to make at 1am after a night of feasting and drinking.

*have rum will travel is my usual motto, but that's a lot of travel there*

i would love to go but not sure i want to add the extra expense to the trip at this time. The price seems fair for what you receive in return. Was there a couple price or did i miss it.

Sorry, Teach.   I will not loan you StudMuffin to go to the Ball.  You'd probably try to sell him for more rum.

There will be a tram that runs during the night, you can also drive up to the ball which will have it's own parking lot.

I got my ticket and golden ticket the first night they went on sale for AHE weekend.  I figured that if I wanted to find out what this was all about might as well do it up right!
