Well, it seems that the Universe (and an awesome friend) really wants us to make it to TRF for Celtic Christmas, and because of said friend, and their incredibly generous early birthday gift to me, specifically the funds to cover the trip, I find myself in the happy position of trying to find tickets! I have located some of the early bulk tickets that I can get for an extremely reasonable price, but before I buy them I wanted to see if there is anyone who has extra comp tickets they won't be using, and that would otherwise go to waste, that they were hoping to give away anyway. I realize it's a stretch, but if I can save even a few dollars on expenses then I can make this trip that much more fun for my daughter, Scally Wag...
Yes, that was an absolutely shameless tug on heartstrings, and an appeal to the generosity of all the wonderful Rennies who frequent this forum! ;) :D
Thanks for reading... :)
Don't forget about the free Sunday tickets for kiddos! :) I printed ours from Facebook. I will keep my eyes open for any extra tickets too.
Yes, I've got that one saved to my docs, although I'll have to go print it at the library because I have no ink in my printer right now! LOL Someone posted that one of the local newspapers had a coupon for a free childs ticket that was good for any day, and wouldn't it be awesome to have a few of those!!! I wonder if they're still running that ad?

Thank you, Trill. I did check it last week, and the tix weren't listed then, but maybe they put them back on! Here's hoping!!! :)
As it so happens, we have season tickets this year and will not be able to use them all. Would much rather give a couple to someone who would appreciate the faire than waste them on co-workers who can more than afford them on their own. Only issue is how to get them to you. Send me a pm to work something out.

WooT!!! I'm on it right now!!! ;D
Oh, how wonderful! I have the offer of two tickets!!! Rennies are such amazing, marvelous people! That leaves only one more adult and two child's tix to be acquired, since I can use the Free Sunday child's ticket for my renlet!
I'm sooooo excited to be able to make it down for Celtic Christmas, and can't WAIT to see everyone!!! ;D

Send me your email address on here and I will send you the pdf file for the kids tickets.
At this point, I don't have any extra tickets but if we don't make it for Barbarian Weekend we just might. I will watch the thread and keep you posted, if we don't use it.

Oh, awesome!!! These are the ones that can be used any day, right? If so, then that means I would only need one more ticket for myself, and we'd be all set!!! Rennies truly ARE amazing... ;D
I have a spare comp for you. Send me your info thru PM.
WooHoo!!! That makes all 3 that I need, and hopefully the link from Lady D1 will be good for the 2 kids tix I need! I am just astounded... and absolutely floored by how wonderful you all are! Oh, and how excited we are to see everyone!!!
Sending that PM right now, Ravic!

Sent - sorry it took so long was enjoining the glorious weather at TRF all day Sat and way to many errands on today.
Oh, no worries... and I'm THRILLED!!! If you don't mind, I'd like to offer this to anyone else who is planning to take their kids out during the next two weekends.
Lady D1 just sent me an email with the actual coupon to be exchanged for 1 free child's ticket, good for any day the Faire is open, and I would love to share it with anyone who needs it! PM me, and I would be happy to email it to you so you can use it as many times as you need!
Oh! Rani! Please email me that! We will be doing 3 days of faire closing weekend...and not having to pay for the Dirt Fairy's tickets would be awesome!!! :) PMing you my email address!
Got it, and you should have the coupon in your email already! If anyone else needs this I would be more than happy to send it to you, as well!!!
Speaking of need... I have a friend here who is bringing 4 kids to Faire for closing, 3 of whom qualify for the adult ticket... and while they've managed to find 8 of the early season pass tickets for $13 each, and 3 free kids tix, they are still in need of another 4 adult tickets. If anyone has more extras they would like to gift, or season tickets they can sell at that same low rate, it would be a huge help to this family!
Everyone who has responded to this is just amazing, and it makes me so proud and pleased to be part of a group that is so willing to help each other this way... and hopefully I can either return the favor someday, or "forward" it!
You mean I actually have a second chance of running into you this season? YAY!!!! *glitterexplosion*
Oh, yes... and this time I mean to see that it happens! ;)

You have email!
I'm checking right now, Lady D! Thank you so much for wanting to help! I really love the way Rennies have been networking to try and help each other out with getting to Faire! I'm all for supporting our Faires through ticket sales, though sometimes just getting there can be the biggest expense, and when you have a large family to bring then the discount tickets can really make a huge difference! Sometimes it's the difference between being able to go... or not.
It would be nice to have a Ticket Share and/or Ride Share board here in the forums, so we could all network even more to help each other get to Faire! I don't know if it would need to be listed in the individual Faire Forums, Regional Forums, Market Square, Classifyds or just in it's own Forum, but it would be a great resource for anyone who needed to find tickets, or a ride, and for people wanting to sell or give away extra tickets, or looking for riders who could help with gas/driving to get to Faire.
Please forgive the double post... :-[
Well, my friend's family is all set for tickets for Celtic Christmas! Thanks to everyone who responded!
I now have word of 4 more tickets for sale at the discount rate of $13 each, if anyone else is in need of extras! Just let me know and I will make the connection!
This is kind of fun! :D
My husband and I are in need of discounted tickets for closing weekend (2 for Friday, and 2 for Saturday) if anyone is looking to get rid of theirs
I think the 4 I was told about earlier have been claimed already, so if anyone else has 4 more available for Tink and her hubby, hopefully season ticket rate (or lower... ;D ), that would be wonderful!!!

I do have a few once again available. PM me if interested.
Tink, jump on that!!!
Hey everyone...if anyone has 2 discount tickets they don't need...I will take them off your hands for you! ;D
You guys are AWESOME!!! I now have all of the tickets I need! Thanks! ;D
Oh, wow... how cool is that?!? :D Can't wait to see ya'll!
I LOVE this thread!!!
Yes, thank you everyone for helping each other! I love seeing this!
Well, looks like quite a few people have been helped here, or privately, by so many others... and it reminds me of how very fortunate we all are to have this place, and each other, and to be able to help in whatever small or large ways we can! I've had fun with this, and enjoyed being able to make so many different connections, some with people I hadn't really even spoken with before. :)
I think everyone who has asked has been helped, so far. What an awesome feeling! Thank you soooo much, to everyone who has been so generous! I am truly amazed to know so many wonderful Rennies!!!
Funny, but I'm not even coming down, but I appreciate it too, Rani. The past few years, seems like everything you read in the news was about people being crappy to other people. I'll freely admit: I'm a hippie, and I'm really pleased to see people looking out for one another out here. Lotsa good karma.
It's definitely a warm fuzzy feeling! :)
these warm fuzzy feelings are why I keep coming back, both to the forums and the faires! It's a nice change from what I see daily.
Glad everyone has been able to to find the help they needed. We'll need the warm and fuzzy feelings this weekend. ;D
Oh! There are some more tickets floating around in the far North that need to be used, I believe! Muffin and Capt. Bacardi are, sadly, unable to make the trip down for closing, so they need to try and find a new home for their tickets! Oh, ummm... I didn't actually ask if they still had them, but I hadn't heard anything to the contrary, so if anyone is still searching for tickets then I'm pretty sure they wouldn't mind getting back what they paid for them! Surely there's someone who can take them, since I believe they're still less than the gate admission!
Thank you again for the free child's ticket pdf! My family and I had a great time :D
Oh, cool! Glad to know there was no problem using the coupon! Did you exchange it at the ticket booth for a regular child's ticket, then, or just us it AS the ticket?

You exchange them at the ticket booth for a ticket. We have used the coupon each weekend for multiple kids this year and had no issues.
Awesome! Now I have to remember to go print 3 of them off before we leave!
A friend has 2 Adult tickets. Send me a PM & I'll put you in contact.
Ooooh, more tickets! Jump on them, someone!!! :D

I saw where Lishy was asking for some on Facebook earlier today.
Lishy has been notified, and is probably on it! :D
Lishy, I haz them! Please see my PM.
My dad has 3. At some point he will just hand them over to anyone.
Awesome, Ravic and Lishy!!! Sooo happy that connection was made!
Taylor, there will most likely be folks in the campground that will need them, and would rather pay a discount rate than the gate rate, so they won't be wasted!
Soooo awesome that so many people have been helped by this thread!!! You're all wonderful, and you make me proud, happy and very, very thankful to be be part of this incredible group...
Thank you... all of you. :) Can't wait to see you all at Faire!!! (squeeeee!!!) :D
Lishy has not yet responded & I do not know if she is already on the road. If someone knows how to contact her, please let me know.
I'm glad everyone managed to either find, sell or otherwise find a good use for all their tickets! At least everyone I spoke to, anyway! This thread seems to have helped lots of people, myself most of all, maybe! I'm so glad we made as many connections as we did, managed to get so many people into Faire and had such a good time doing it!
Thank you, to everyone who participated, in whatever way! :)
Thanks again for the help with the tickets! My friend and I had a great time this weekend. :)
Oh, I'm soooo glad I was able to help, even the little bit I was involved! I'm sorry we didn't get the chance to meet, but it was another one of those weekends that passed in a blur! For all I know we might have, and I was just doing ten different things at once, like usual... and spaced that it was you! :D
Some days I think I'm lucky to make it out the door fully dressed... ::)
