Title: MMRF has a BEER / WINE / MEADE Merchant for the 2009 Season
Post by: Lady Gwyndolyn on March 19, 2009, 01:14:09 PM
Yes good Gentles, it is true.  With the diligent assistance of Edmund d'Ambeville of the SCA we now have a gracious Sponsor/host for our Beer / Wine / Meade Merchant.  A fabulous non-profit organization called VOICE, Inc. is coming in to tend to the refreshment needs of our patrons.  They assist those that are hard of hearing and deaf with all of the necessities needed for daily living.

AND  to top it off it is going to have some GREAT entertainment playing inside and will be next to a HOOKA tent!!!  (If you keep a close eye out, you might catch the King during his Turkish Tea Time, he spends it at the Hooka tent.)

So our patrons are going to have a fabulous time this year!!!

HUZZAH!!

His Majesty can now get a proper pint o' Guinness to wash down His midday
repass! This also provides Us the opportunity to sample some of the local
German lagers, something We look forward to very much indeed.

Alas, this doth make Our life a bit more complicated as one will need to keep a
weather eye on the King's Mistress, the Lady Katherine Howard, for she is known
to drink Woodchuck like a..... she doth drinks a LOT!

A hearty WELCOME to the splendid folk of V.O.I.C.E., We are glad for thy
involvement and look forward to greeting thee warmly uponst Our progress to
Kleves this fall!

Warmest Regards,

King Henry Tudor VIII

So if we buy beer/wine/mead at your fest, we'll not only be filling our bodies with something good, but also be doing some good for the community, some of the profit goes to V.O.I.C.E. right? That'd be cool if it did. If not that's fine too your fest needs funds to grow, for it has the right grounds, just needs more acts.

VOICE, Inc is getting 75% of the profit from the booth.  They are running it and everything.  And YES, we have more entertainment.  We have been in negotiations with the Gutterpups and there is a very strong possibility that they are going to be in the Pub entertaining all of those with "pints" in their hands!!!

We also will have Connor Savage, and Heart & Soul will be coming back also.  We have new merchants already also!!!  This is going to be a fantatstic year!!!
