Hey there everyone. I would just like to notify you all that I've put in a bid for Scarby to host next year's RenDezvous! When the time comes, I'll need all your support for votes and input. Thanks a million- and even though it's not my home faire, it still feels like a home to me. Love you guys!

Voting will start June 4th so we'll keep bugging you about it. :D

Also, Blue, I'm right to assume we'd host it Closing/Memorial Day Weekend, right?

Well, I'd like to think so!

Otherwise, we could make a play for Opening Weekend or late April. I think that weather is best for the first two, but an extra faire day is really a selling point for most people! Let me know what you guys think we should lobby for.

Its true, the heat does get pretty sweltering Closing Weekend. We were lucky this season that Saturday and Sunday were enjoyable, even with the few little rain showers we had. Monday though held up to the usual heat of Closing.
Better temps at Opening is a plus, though, Opening this season was pretty warm for early April.

More faire the better, in my opinion. That third day makes for tired Rennies but its worth it.

Although I havent had the chance to go to Scarby yet.  I would think that the temps of Opening weekend would be ideal.  Better for people who havent experienced TX heat yet.  Although the idea of having a Ren Gathering on a 3 day Faire weekend.  Is a seller in my mind.  Just remind me when to vote and I'll do it as often as I can  ;D
May the stars always shine upon you and yours.

I personally like the idea of closing weekend only because its more days. Well that and the opening weekend a couple of years ago when it snowed.... yes it was a fluke but lodged in my mind.
What does the color blue taste like?

Something I thought of, was because it was so much fun to see those that did participate, getting everyone from RF.com to get in on the Day of Wrong if Rendevous was Memorial Day Weekend. Just an idea.  ;)

Lady Mikayla an' I were discussin' this when the subject of 2010 Rendevous came up.

I suspected that Memorial Day would be the targeted date for logistical reasons for distant travelers... 'owever - neither of us were up for the bloody Texas heat that is usually in play for that weekend, so we may be tempted to swing our vote toward Arizona in February.

Its understandable, the heat can be an issue for some. Its a toughie, cause Arizona is pretty awesome.

I've wanted to attend this faire for so very long, and it has my vote, no matter what weekend Rendezvous is held. GO SCARBY!
