\\CAN I DRESS UP?

Please do! Our club strives to recreate clothing and (amongst other things!) from the time between 600-1600 CE but you do not have to follow those guidelines. This faire is meant to entertain and amuse, so feel free to dress to the nines in any historical, fictional, or fantastical costuming you may desire. Please note that this is a family event so keep inappropriate costumes in the closet! If you have questions about prop weaponry please look to our PROHIBITED ITEMS 

list toward the bottom of the page.
