M'Crack Invasion of ORF 2009 - 23-25 October

[max and kate]

We will be there with the Michigan Invasion

We be there too, it's the Michigan/Outlander Invasion weekend.

[WindChime]

Chime'n M'Crack pet of Slack'n M'Crack checking in.
I'll try to get to the pub to see you all. I work for another vendor for this faire and will have to see if I can get some time off to get some signatures to start my process.
Unless I have to have spinal surgery.
I have 2 more test the Dr wants me to get done and hopefully then he can deside what to do about my leaning problem. I'm tired of taking so much pain meds.

[Lady von Groper]

Calendar's marked!  The Lady von Groper will be there.  Looking forward to seeing everyone!

I hope things work out for you, dear Windchime!

[Lairde Guardn]

The list is growing......plans are now starting to be firmed up.....

For those coming in for the M'Crack weekend I suggest staying in Wilmington because it's only 7 miles from faire. I was going to block rooms at the Baymont in Wilmington, but the online rate was much better than the rate I was quoted. The Baymont is on Carrie Drive (Wilmington) and their number is 937-383-3950. Their online rate is $52 (my "blocked" rate was $60). There is also a Hampton and a Holiday Inn Express next to the Baymont on Holiday Drive.

The meet n greet will be at the Brazenhead in Mason. M'Cracks fit right in with their theme and garb is encouraged! The Brazenhead is at 5650 Tylersville Rd in Mason, Ohio 45040 and their phone number is 513-229-0809. I'll have maps to pass out for those needing such and at this writing I'm trying to encourage all to stay at the Baymont, however, all three of those hotels are within a stone's throw of one another and it seems the online rate for all of those hotels is the best you can acquire.

Got my hotel room at the Baymont reserved. 

LadyHawke, with tickets costing $19.99 and their $2.00 parking fee, is anyone working on getting a group rate for tickets?

[LadyHawkeontheHill]

I will check on this, but I think the best we might be able to do is the "click n print" option on ORF's webpage. The tickets are $17 with that option and you're able to print your tickets at home, no shipping charges and no will-call window...

Thought about getting a season pass again bc last year they were 65 bucks (vs 80 for two weekends at 20 a day)..which was a good idea, but sadly they're 100 this year. Yeowch. If I still lived closer to the faire then maybe but...My goodness!


Granted it's a STEAL if you get one and go all days ($5.89 per day) 

[Athena]

Hotel reservations made. I can't wait!

[WindChime]

What day are you all going to meet at Brazenhead?
I kind of need to know because I might still need the parents to drive me.
Since I haven't driven myself since June.
Still hoping all goes well with my surgery so I can come out and meet everyone.

[LadyHawkeontheHill]

The Brazenhead meet n greet will be Friday night October 23rd. I'm thinking 7:00 ish. Still waiting to see the final head count (and we have some time yet) to know just what the accomodations will be for our group.

[WindChime]

ok I was just checking. I'll probally have two to three people including me coming. P.S. that's the day after my birthday

[LadyHawkeontheHill]

Let's bump this topic up a bit, make it current.

Albannach will be the weekend's entertainment for the last weekend of ORF's run. We'll have M'Cracks, Outlanders and lots of Michiganers. A weekend not to be missed.

[ladylissame]

My rogue Gregory and I will be there FOR CERTAIN on the 25th. We cannot miss Jinx's birthday. Or Albannach. And now that other R/Fers will be there......wonderful weekend!

[Capt Lucy]

yay Albannach!!!
