Please stay. Do not let a few scare you away. Go find the Baron and Baroness of the group. Her Excellency Suzanne and I have known each other for many years and she is awesome! His Excellency Phillipe is amazing and full of wonderful advice. Please come on over to our event in the Barony of Raven's Fort. I am sure that Their Excellencies might come. 
Camping equipment is easy to obtain. Look around resale shops and at military surplus stores for stuff. Ask the group if anyone has anything for sale for inexpensive prices. 
Do not give up. We want you here!
