Added a poll to the thread.
Please choose your best option for the renvasion weekend.
If anyone knows how to make the polls where you can choose more than one answer, let me know... I don't see an option for that.

*or just send me rum instead*

You forgot a weekend, Teach. And a very special weekend too (even though I think Opening Weekend is the best for a McLotofUs invasion)

May 16th and May 17th.

I'll be lucky enough to celebrate my birthday on the day of at faire this coming season.

I'd love to see whoever does come out to faire, whether it be opening or closing or whenever.  ;D

I voted for closing weekend, but I need to check when the Drunken Gnomes will be doing our invasion.

Since this will be my first year for Scarby, I plan on staying at the motel that the Gnomes reserve a block of rooms. That way I can scout out the drive over to the campgrounds at the lake before I bring the travel trailer up for future runs.

Don't remember Scarby doing "themes" like TRF does but I haven't been since 2003.

Oh well... not sure when, but not the first weekend, I guess.

They really only have like a few official themed weekends, like Pirate Invasion and...I think that might be it actually. Not the same as TRF.

Usually the themed weekends run something like this:

Family - up to 3 kids free with every adult paid admission
ASL - interpreters for the hearing impaired at most performances
Highland Games Weekend - official highland games competition and Scots weekend
Wine and Ale Festival - yeah, self explanatory
Romance - vow renewals and so on
Pirates - again, self-explanatory
Memorial Day weekend - veterans are honored in many ways (vets from ANY service and ANY country)

They vary from year to year, but that's the usual pattern.  2009 special events aren't up yet, though.

We'll be there Closing Weekend (no kids).  One other, with kids, AFTER Easter (for some reason the Church frowns on pastors missing Palm Sunday and Easter).  Thus, my vote of invasion would be -- anything AFTER Easter...

At this moment we are planning for Opening weekend for the DG/Claw Invasion and booking a Group block as usual. 

We have stayed at the same place for years and I will be making our usual reservation after the first per the manager.

If McLotofus would like to share the hotel let me know and I can see if Peter will extend our number of rooms.

ok... now based on the votes here I am guessing the ML invasion will be opening weekend.
Now, we need someone to start the "when u comin'?/where u stayin'?" thread so we can go ahead and coordinate stuff
Elo? We're looking in your direction this time...
(Gotta get those vacation weekends turned in early)

*and I gotta plan how much rum to buy*

(sigh)

Guess I'll just have to catch as catch can some random weekend, but I will make sure I post when I'll be headed that way early enough so that maybe a few of us can form a meet-n-greet then! Enjoy!!!
