Mudanes have more benefits than season pass holders

[Lord Daniel Of Clarence]

Once again it seems management at Sterling has given perks to the mundanes while completely disregarding the season pass holders. I did hear a season pass holder, who was slightly disgruntled at the season's opener, comment that we should boycott the season pass. I for one, after twenty years of season passes, is considering buying my tickets at the gate since there are more perks available.

What sorts of perks? I'm not a season-pass-holder. I generally buy my tickets online in advance - during the pre-season discount period when possible. I did buy my tickets on opening day for the B1/G1 at half-price sale, which resulted in a very lengthy wait to get in (I won't bother with that again).

I definitely don't feel like I got any special perks besides enjoying the faire. Am I missing something?

I'm also confused by the use of the term "mundane" in this context. In my experience, it has always referred to the patrons who don't care to dress up in period garb. I've never heard it used with respect to season pass holders vs. people who buy their tickets in some other format.

But mostly I want my perks.

There have been some good online  deals  if  you buy your  tickets ahead of  time  on line.  


Back before  Christmas  they had great discounts  on prepurchased  tickets  for  this season.


Back in May  there were also running some  discounts online.

*********************************************

Just a suggestion, seeing how  the  Sterling faire is  currently  running, may i suggest  we keep negative  comments   towards  the faire  to ourselves.  The faire is  a great faire.  Sir Douglas  Waterbury and his crew  have  put in alot of  work  trying to preserve  the faire  and  bring it back on it's feet.
 ( if  you recall the faire  was up  for  sale  for  a few years, and  we  could have lost our beloved  faire if it had not been  for   Sir  Waterbury ).

anyway negative comments  only hurt the faire. It  does not deserve  negative comments cause it is a wonderful faire  witha terrific cast, workers  and  vendors.  and  when you make  negative  comments  it  could  drive  people away  who have never been to  Sterling.

I propose  that we  close  this  subject.

If you have been going to faire, as you say for twenty years, then you definitely can see the much needed improvements made by the new ownership!
The past owners, who I know very well, just decided to give up. They did what they could for many years and the need to move on....to let someone else take the faire & to make it more than what they could do....was there.
Mr. Waterbury, has taken the 'reins' and is making the faire more than what it ever was!
I for one, used to buy a seasons pass for many years. It does save you some money, but if you do not attend faire every weekend, it will loose value. I also believe, there are more 'perks' available, than what was offered in years past.
I do hope you will continue to enjoy your visits to Sterling and will watch for the many offers on-line next season, for 'early birds'!
Take care and hope we meet up, sometime!
