"A fair field full of folk found I there." - Piers Ploughman

As one explores the lovely re-created grounds, it may be impossible not to pause for a moment to listen to a musician, watch a mime, or interact with the countless characters, performers, and demonstrators.

The Living History Pavilion provides the opportunity to watch the mending of armor, henna tattoos, the illumination of manuscripts, hand-to-hand combat and archery, among other demonstrations.

It will be difficult to decide what to do (or what to do first) as performers fill multiple stages and sets begin every half-hour.

Performers provide a wealth of offerings. See a fire-juggler, watch authentic hand to hand combat and live steele, watch a human chess match, listen to music and choral groups, and be enraptured with mimes, knights, archers, and fair maidens. The Faire has non-stop entertainment for all ages.

and hands-on crafts remain a centerpiece of this community event. Games are at every turning of the Fairegrounds, from chess tournaments and dragon hunts, to feats of strength and gryking.

The children's area includes a maze, foam archery, a puppet stage, music land, and knightly training.

Contests allow faire patrons to win prizes donated by local businesses by joining in dragon egg hunts, grykings, costume contests, feats of strength, and much, much, more.
