Terre, are you aware of what Scarborough does in regards to parking for their more loyal/frequent patrons?  You probably are but as a recap for others: Scarby offers Friends of Faire deals that include a designated parking area. 
Is this something TRF would consider in the future?

I admit I'm not.  I will see if that is something we could do.  Do you know how many people participate?

Bonny Pearl

There isn't any camping for patrons.  The deal consists of season tickets with a preferred parking area where people gather and tail gate prior to cannon, etc.

Here is a link on the Scarby site about it:  http://www.srfestival.com/friends-of-the-faire/ticket-info/friends-of-the-faire.html

Maybe this is something that can be built from to work for TRF.

A Friends of Faire type deal would be great for TRF.  A true season pass with added benefits for those that are repeat visitors.

Bonny Pearl

Oh as for participation... I believe it would have a pretty good response from those that don't/can't camp.

Lock it or kick the troll off.  Who ever it is they don't have anything positive to add to the discussion.
Terre, according to his own profile his name is Cory Brock and he is the Director of Promotions and Special Events at the Texas Renaissance Festival.

Really? This is how we're going to use this forum? To belittle each other, end up in insults, and sit and b**** about every little thing?


Wow...how things have changed.  :-[

Opening Saturday I was there at about 8:30, and I believe I parked on Row 4...nobody said anything about $10 for parking...

It got implemented partway through the season, not at the outset. It was a goof up, and from what I understand Terre is now reviewing the way it has been handled by other faires and thus I hope we will see it handled much better by next year.

Karnov (Cory Brock) requested to have his account deleted after coming in and being a troll. 

I went one step further and banned him.
