Has anyone heard anything about this upcoming Fair?

It's put on by one of the guys who used to do Renaissance in the Pines. It's held in a church campground, so there is no alcohol. I haven't heard much positive about it from the merchant viewpoint, other than their fees are cheap. Still, myself and most of the merchants I know have decided not to bother. They seem to be trying hard but are really limited by the site.
I don't know what to say about visiting as a patron, other than it's in Flagstaff in July, which for us Phx/Tucson folks is always a plus. They do give a discount on admission if your in costume.
