Title: Ocean Springs Ren Festival?
Post by: Jean Pierre Dewell on June 05, 2011, 10:18:58 PM
 I'm hoping BLAKDUKE see's this....
Is the OS Ren Fest going to be done by someone else? I have been hearing a few things here and there.

I know not of any of it.  I heard they had financial difficulties(Katrina) and that the faire and the feast would not be held this year.  What the future holds we shall have to leave to the sayer of sooths.

A small group of us are breathing life into the RenFaire this year.  So far, its looking up for us. Its not the original group but we are giving it our best shot. 
We do have a facebook and a website.  Its going to be October 22 and 23 on Riley Rd in Ocean Springs.  11 acres of fun!

That is unfortunate.  As is usual with facebook and me, it will not let me view anything other than misc. comments and stuff.  I fail to see why everyone is hyped up on facebook and the like.  IMHO it is a piece of crap and very user unfriendly.

It sits there and blinks at you and tells you nothing. If you are fortunate  enough to get to something interesting like pictures, you will go thru the lifetimes of 3 generations of tortoises before it comes up.   Whatever pictures are out there, those of you that can some how use that worthless system, I hope you enjoy them.  Oh yes I know I am in the minority in my opinion, but that has never swayed me before.  Just because a few million people enjoy it does not make me wrong.

Don't be so hard on them, BlakDuke...it works for some people. But, like you, I stay the hell away from FaceBook. WAY too much information sometimes! I really don't need to know how successful someone's 2-year-old was at using the big folks' toilet.

But they did post a website. The URL again is http://osrenfaire.com

This is the original site from previous years now updated for this year. 
We have different people doing different things so far because we are trying to put this together in such a short time.  I am doing the vendors so I'm not quite up to snuff on the entertainment.  The numbers are on the official page so no worries for the non facebookers if you want to book something.  ;D   

Please be patient with us.  Some of us are squeezing this event in with real life just so we won't go a year without one.  Any suggestions welcomed!

you are right, I tend to start with broadsides before going to smaller calibre single shots.
