The most logical weekend would be labor day weekend as that is when we get our biggest RF invasion. We had 70-80 last year and it looks like we are going to shatter that number this year. We may have 70 with just the M'cracks that are showing up. Plus there is the extra day off for people who need to travel.

Congratulations Maryland.

Remember there are some who can't have a three day weekend on a holiday weekend due to work restrictions.

And the other question would be what weekend is Albannach going to be there?

or Mediaeval Baebes? Aerial Angels? or Hack and Slash?

I know it's over a year in advance so you don't know.

Thank you everyone! We look forward to hosting all whom want and will come in 2009! The weekend does not matter for every weekend at MDRF is a great weekend indeed! If I were to have my preference it would be Labor day for that is the longest weekend at MDRF and the weekend we always have our invasion ... that said, let the voting begin! Regardless of your choice of weekends ... MDRF and its crew will delight in hosting such fine faire folk! Well met all!

That's awesome! I've long wanted to visit this faire. Congratulations Maryland!


...and a thankyou to King Richard's and California's Pleasure faire and it's planners. Your kind offers to host alone tell me that your home faires must be well worth the visit.  :)

Hey Scotsman...drop a quarter in the slots for me.  If I win, feel free to buy yourself a drink  :D

           Oh, wait...do they even have Guinness in Vegas?
     
                      I'm sure you'll find one somewhere...

I do have a question for you....what's the closest/easiest airport to fly into? And who all is willing to come and get me from said airport? (If I actually make it out to MDRF next year then it'll be the first RenDezvous that I'll be at since it was held in TX. :o )

Sweet!  Got a year to plan!

How far is the faire from Chevy Chase, MD?  I have family there, and thus, potential free lodging if it's not too far away.
