I'll be on the lookout for you guys and gals!

I'll be there on Saturday with my storytelling group.  I'm not sure where we'll be telling, but look for our banner - North Oakland County Storytellers somewhere within the event.

MIRF people will also be there in the childrens area, giving out flyers (which usually has coupons for tix on them). I told them I'd be happy to mingle between sets and pass out fliers.

See you there!

Hi !
I'm hoping to make it on Fri or Sat.   I had no idea they had Thurs. night movies.

I've been trying to go every year.  Doesn't always happen, but..

I think I'll check the website again.  I could've sworn  the Sat. festivities ended at about 5:00 pm or 6:00 pm.  It's better if it's open late, so I can see everything without rushing.

If everything goes right and I can  .. attend, I hope to bring some of my Renaissance gear that is for sale, if anyone needs some clothes, temporary tattoos, fabric, pewterware, pottery, gloves, etc., with prices of clothes starting at $2.00, to $15.00.

Can't wait.  --Shannon,   The Colonial Peddler

The closing ceremonies are at 5:30 p.m., and then they have a Pipedown from  5:45 ~ 8:30 with live entertainment in the Ceilidh Tent.  ;D

You can fine a full schedule at the web-site.  www.highlandgames.com

(whispering) Oh, come on... you KNOW you want to.

Just think of all the great action photos you'd get from the games!
