Hello to all who plan
on attending the first Avacal Tir Righ War!
As this is a first
year event I’ve had to go on “gut feeling” when finding a site, and booking bifs as far as numbers for the
event, I tried to entice folks to pre reg by offering free t shirts to the first 25, but alas it’s been hard to even
give those away. At this point, including the royals I have about 30 people “known” to be attending.
I’m not looking
for a person to pre register now, what I am looking for is some understanding around the camp.
We have booked about
ten acres. Which is plenty of space for 60-110 people (my original “gut” on the numbers) but a Wonderful Thing
has happened, from the sounds out there MANY people and households are planning on supporting their Principality and we are now expecting closer to 200 people. So please pack little tighter, share sunshades instead of
everyone bringing their own and we should have plenty of space.
If you have a large
group attending drop me a note with about how much space you’d like (keeping in mind that we need to fit in tight) by
Wednesday.
I’m so excited
that we’ll have such a strong turn out for this historic event and I look forward to seeing you all soon!
HRH Wrenn
PS Don't forget that the fantastic tshirts will be sold onsite: ONLY $10!
