Default renaissance fair was very nice

we went to the Renaissance Fair, it was pretty good. They had jousters with beautiful horses, and some sword fighting. Quite a few vendors. Some food vendors. Some stages with music.

I am sure it will improve when they get the hang of having a fund raiser. They had one tent with 2 raffles. The signs were not very well displayed and the buckets you put your tickets in were not even labelled. They did add a label to one of them.

I don't think they did a good job with the free luncheon for cancer survivors. There was a huge line and only one station where they were dishing out the meal. Perhaps they will improve on that next year.

Also, there was no schedule for entertainment or the jousting times. We only stayed a little while.

They sure needed more advertising before the event. And they could have sold their raffle tickets at several places to make more money.

It was certainly a beautiful day for the event.
