FOF Ticket Question

[RenStarr]

I was looking at the Faire web site and I've got a question in regards to the Friends of Faire season pass.  Clearly the pass is entry to Faire and camping each weekend.  But it states the pass also includes "other benefits".  What are the specifics of "other benefits"?

[Sir Edward]

You get two comp Sunday tickets (that you can give to anyone), free shirt or stein (your choice), commemorative pin (that is not offered to the public), free fair guide, and on certain nights you are allowed back in the park after hours to go to seven sisters or to mingle with the participants.

There are also discounts to be had at certain vendors both for food and merchandise. I think a list was posted the day after the last response. I'll add it in a quote

That will need to be updated as at least one of the food venues will not be there next season.

[PollyPoPo]

What?  Which one?

That will need to be updated as at least one of the food venues will not be there next season.

[KiltedPrivateer]

Hear Say, I don't want to spread rumors.  But, the point remains, it should be updated in case any of the vendors decide not to give the discounts this year or new vendors should decide to be added.

[PollyPoPo]

You're right about updating list of participating vendors.

We have started asking every vendor if they give discounts because so many do, but are not on the list.

Will there be any after hours celebration for FOF on opening weekend?

[Crimson]

There is an opening "toast" Friday night to happen at midnight at the camping entrance.  Gathering will start about 11. That is not an official FOF event but an unofficial event to toast to a good season.

[Lord Virgo]

Awesome!!!!  I'll cheers to that

[*Teach*]

I'll be there toasting away

*good rum makes good toasts*

[Crimson]

Anyone else from here that will be there find me and say hi.  I'll be in a black pirate hat with light up feathers on it! 

[KiltedPrivateer]

We'll be there

Just have to remember about it, and hopefully be set up by then. Being a teacher and not having a sub available for the second half of the day is annoying
