Photos for passes

Orvis sent out an email to all on the list.  If you are not, here is letter forwarded on.

WHAT WE LEARNED at FRIENDS of FAIRE
We learned that our ID printer is slower than we thought.  We would like to extend our apologies to all who had to endure the line yesterday and our thanks for your patience and forbearance. You did us a great service.

HERE IS THE NEW PROCEDURE FOR FRIEND OF THE FAIRE AND SEASON TICKET HOLDERS.

BEST METHOD
Send us your pictures in advance.  We have previously asked, exhorted and implored you - send in your pictures! As long as we receive your picture before noon on the Friday prior to your first visit to the festival, we can have your photo ID ready for pick up at the Front Gate Souvenir Kiosk. Friends of the Faire will also receive their pin and complimentary tickets at that time.

SECOND BEST METHOD
Bring your E-ticket to the exit gate.  It will be scanned and returned to you. You will also be given a paper ticket to use to have your ID made and your pin and complimentary tickets (if applicable). You may have your picture taken at Shoppe #1 (right around the corner from souvenirs) between 10am and 6pm during that visit or any future visits. Be aware that if you continue to use the paper ticket and lose it, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO REPLACE IT! You will have to buy another ticket.  On the other hand if you lose your ID card you can replace it by paying a materials fee of $10. It is a good idea to get a photo ID and they make great mementos.

IF YOU BUY YOUR TICKET AT THE GATE
You will be given a paper ticket, along with the pin and complimentary tickets that Friends of the Faire receive, which you will then take to the exit gate for admittance.  Everything after that is the same as above.

Email for the photos and photo size is on the home page for Scarborough, www.scarboroughrenfest.com

Just passing this along - everyone be sure and check your spam/junk folders, too.

Are we supposed to get any kind of response when we send our photos in?  I just want to be sure that it got there successfully and was in the proper format, etc, so I don't show up Saturday morning expecting to pick up a pass that isn't there yet.

Thanks!

I think if everything goes well, you get a "got it".

[Macintyre]

just an FYI, not everyone got an e-mail reguarding sending in the picture in advance.  I sat in line on sunday and wasn't aware of said e-mail till i was already standing in line, and I was not the only one.  I also didn't know about the sneak preview weekend if not for what i read in here.

[Sonata]

I just re-sent my photo, with a note that said if I was supposed to receive a confirmation of receipt the first time I didn't, so here's the photo again just in case.

*It's interesting being known as "That rum guy"*

Just got an email from Scarby.  Here's the body of it:

In just two weeks it will be opening day of our 29th Season and we will once again "Throw wide the gates and let Scarborough Faire begin". We look forward to seeing all of you here.

****** FRIENDS OF THE FAIRE AND SEASON PASS HOLDERS PLEASE NOTE *******
The last day to have your photo ID picture scheduled and made in the office or to E-MAIL your picture is Wednesday, March 25.  After that you will have to have your picture made at the gate.  We highly recommend emailing your picture to pictures@SRFestival.com so that we can have your photo ID pass ready when you first arrive this season.

OPENING DAY – We will have two lines for those who do not already have their photo ID's.  Line #1 will be for those who have sent in their pictures.  (It will be the faster moving line.) Line #2 will be for those who still need their pictures taken. (It will be the slower moving line.) We will open the lines at 9 am on opening day at the Souvenir Gypsy Wagon outside the front gate.  BE SURE AND BRING YOUR ONLINE PRINTED TICKET!

************* FRIENDS OF THE FAIRE ONLY **************************
Friends of the Faire will be able to have their picture ID's made at the Friend of the Faire Preview event on Sunday, March 29 as well.

Speaking of which, the last day to RSVP for the Friend of the Faire Preview event is Wednesday, March 25. Remember this event is for Friends of the Faire only.

when we emailed ours in we got a response saying 'got it'

[Master Benjamin]

From Orivs at the SRF Office:

Leah,

We are having trouble getting photos on our SRFestival address.   Could you please let everyone know that they should send them to SRFPics@gmail.com.  We have extended the deadline from noon to 4pm.  We have been having email issues.  If they haven't gotten a "Got it" reply, they should resend.  Thanks.

Orvis M
