NK - King Arthur Pendragon Faire (Archery & Music)

[Christopher Merle]

My Lady Toinette and I went to the Pendragon Faire Saturday. It wasn't bad
for a first time renfaire. We heard an excellent musical trio called
Tullamore. They played mostly Scottish tunes. At first we thought we were
hearing recorded music, but then we looked around and saw them.

Their is a small archery range on the site. The lord, Bear, it running was
originally from Vatavia but does renfaires now. He hosted an archery
tournament in the afternoon. The entry fee was $10 and the prize was $50
gift certificate for merchants that are at the faire. Alas, I did not win.
You must bring your own archery equipment for the tourney.

The site has lots of shade trees. Though it was hot it was not unbearable.
Admission is $8. It runs Sunday and next weekend. It is real easy to find.
Get off Turner turnpike at the Stroud exit. Go north on Hwy 99 till you
reach Stroud lake road and follow the signs. Directions are available on
the website.
