Title: Closing weekend 2013
Post by: DonaCatalina on May 22, 2013, 04:43:23 AM
Post if you plan on being there.
Don Juan and I will be there on Saturday and Monday. We usually need Sunday to recover from the heat.
For those who are new, the Monday parade includes as many veterans as can be persuaded to join. If you are a veteran or know one who is attending, please see the gate guards for a yellow sash.

Also, as a farewell to our gate guards who we have laughed with, harassed and gotten assistance from all season, we will be bringing small gifts of chocolate.
If you would, please join in. The more, the merrier.

I wish we could come down. Monday will be the final appearance of Queen Anne. I should think that closing canon will be extra emotional this year.  :'(

I'll be there all three days -- planning on catching some of the shows that I've somehow missed over the last seven weeks (how did that happen?).

Monday will be a very emotional day, indeed.  The memorial day parade usually makes me cry, and I know I'll be sobbing (hopefully silently) at closing cannon.

I will be there all three days. I work the gate so I kinda have to be! I do plan on coming to Saturday's tailgate as well. It will be great to meet you all more than just scanning tickets and checking mugs!

I'm in for all 3 days, and unlike every other day this year, when I've left just as quickly as possible to avoid the long lines of folks getting out of the parking lot, I'm in to the very bittersweet end on Monday to bid farewell the the only Queen Anne I've known.

*note to self: get WATERPROOF mascara*

I shall be there all 3 days but I can't guarantee opening or closing on any day except closing Monday.

Were we not just counting down to Opening a few days ago?  Where does the time go?

I'm planning on being there all 3 days!  I'll be kilted Saturday & Monday, but gypsy garb on Sunday as I have to drum for the belly dancers on the Ivanhoe Stage.  Please come to one of our shows Sunday at 11:30, 1:30, 3, 4 & 5:30, and stay afterward to say "Hi!"  Even though it's been a LOT of work on performance days, it's been a fantastic season this year, with glorious weather each weekend  :D

It was a wonderful closing weekend. We had a little rain Saturday late, some on Sunday but that just meant Monday was a lot cooler. Quite a crowd turned out for the parade.
It was a nice day to say farewell for awhile.

I was only able to make it out for Monday, but it was a great day indeed. A Hearty Huzzah to all of our men and women of the Armed Forces.

Sorry, but I didn't make it out all season. Just didn't want to do that 12 hour drive again, so I made it up to the Georgia Renaissance Festival, which is only about 5. Anybody that has never been, should check out GARF. It 's about the same size and scope as Scarborough. Very pretty and tree filled area south of Atlanta of I-85.
