Forum > Pirate Life
Possible Event in Indiana
michaelsbagley:
Your welcome for the help...
Some other considerations you may want to consider is the "Muster on the Maumee" (sp?), its a huge time line event in North Western Ohio, it is on Father's Day weekend. It could be an exellent opportunity for advertising for re-enactors, or just another event you would probably just want to avoid confliciting with. You would seriously be shooting yourself in the foot if you try to compete with that one. I just checked the calendar, and the River Raid Faire in Covington Kentucky was over Father's Day weekend for the last two years. So I think as long as you avoid Father's Day weekend, you should be good.
Another thing you may wish to do is contact the "Crewe of the Archangel". I have seen a few members on this forum (Cheeky Actress, and I think I saw Sterling here as well, Sterling is the Captain of the Archangels). The Archangel Crewe have members all over the place, but in my observations, the greatest concentration of members seems to be in Illinois, and Southern Wisconsin, which could make your possible event a reasonable commute for many of that group's members. That is of course if they don't already have anything going on aroiund that time, they are a fairly prolific group and seem to be very active and busy.
I have been working at networking with Ohio area pirate enthusiasts, trying to get a group going (or even a collection of like mided individuals). I have a couple of people interested, and an event that close could really help put a focus to this potentiality and help make it a reality.
Regardsless, I hope my ramblings have helped, and if there is anything I can do to help get this event off the ground, please let me know. I am looking forward to more information as it becomes available.
Regards,
Michael
Sterling:
Aye the Crewe of the Archangel would be interested... but just a word of caution... there is the Blackbeard's Festival down in VA the first weekend in June and I believe Port Washington's Pirate Festival is already scheduled for the weekend of June 8... just to let you know.
Dr. Wolfenstein:
This event sounds great! Count me and my wife in. I could probably get a few friends to attend this one as well.

Hi,
This is Adam Fivush (Chairman of the Fishers Renaissance Faire).
Nice to meet all of you. For the past 4 years, The Hey Nonny Nonny Players (Pirates of the LunaSea) have been performing at the Fishers Faire and some other venues. We would love the opportunity to expand to some other one weekend faires. We do a comedy/swashbuckling show (the show culminates with a 3 on 3 sword fight ) We are one of the most popular shows (#3) at the faire (next to the Joust and Rogue Blades). If you are interested in having us at your faire, let us know (we'd love to help).
Also, having been in charge of this faire (11,000+ in one weekend) for a number of years, I might have some pointers or be able to help you in some way. We rennies/reenactors have to stick together!
Send me a private email or reply here.
Adam
aka Sir Walter Raleigh (fishers renfaire)
