[Stargate] Fighter Practice - March 25th against Art Festival - so many questions!

[Lauren Norman]

I, for one, will not be ready for a demo that weekend, and I can't really imagine many of us would be.  I believe the effort:payoff ratio would be less than ideal.  If y'all still want to do fighter practice that weekend, how about the park across the street from the Menil?  There's plenty of shade, usually ample parking and if my experiences are sufficient by which to judge the average park-goer there is more likely than those in other places to be interested in SCA activities.

That's really close to when we get back from war, and typically people are DONE for a week or two. 

What do people think their energy levels will be like? How much work are people (we) willing to put forth for a spur-of-the-moment-demo that soon after war - especially for a demo that we're really going to have to work hard to make happen (i.e. parking problems, etc.).

Would we have to buy tickets? Will the coordinators even allow us to do a demo there? So many questions!
