[Ravensfort] First time event question

[Sher M]

What Rosalia said is very true.
I make a list for each event.  I usually get my non-perishable stuff 
gathered first and check it off.  This is about 2 days before I leave for 
the event.  Then I pack everything the day before and load it up and check 
it off again.  You'd be surprised what you forget.  That gives me a chance 
to look at it and figure out what I've forgotten.  Last thing to load is 
contacts, glasses, medications, jewelry, fill the ice chest, etc.

Ceramic type plates, bowls, mugs are good for feast gear as long as they are 
a solid color but not like lime green or screaming meme pink type colors. 
Don't forget forks, knives & spoons.  If you have a large-ish basket you can 
put your feast gear in that and cover it with a piece of fabric that you can 
use as your 'table cloth'.  I usually take battery operated candles both for 
my tent and to put on tables.

Detlef has a good list! If you can't get feast gear/mug/garb/what is this 
and why does it have to be 'period' stuff, then we can always scrape it 
together from our extras or the hospitaler bags. One more tip that is 
essential: Don't do like we do every so often and wait until 2am the night 
before to pack! You *always* forget something and in SCA events it's always 
the thing you really need...

it's not because they enjoy solitude. It's because they have tried to blend 
into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them."

I am going to go to 
Jägermeister<http://calendar.ansteorra.org/exit.php?link=http://ffynnon-gath.ansteorra.org/Jagermeister2009.htm> 
at the end of the month, and this will be my first event.  Any advice on 
what I should bring?
