Hi All, I just wanted to apologise for not opening the last two seasons. When my Mother died on April 12, 2014 it et in motion a series of unforseen events that has monopolized all of my attention for the last two years. My father is moving to a full care facility at the end of this month and I should be off of contant red alert soon.
Now to the future. Four Winds Faire is changing. There are too many Renaissance faires in this demographic to continue a prolonged enggement of nine weeks. I have too much land under development to not have a regular faires season. So, I'm planning to reoutfit every shop and cottage as an artists studio with sales gallery space , kitchen , bath and bedrooms and open for year round tenancy. Lofts will run from $350.00 per month to around $700.00. We will retain the old word atmosphere and landscaping. The site is avalable for weddings, parties weekend weddings withdinners, jousting lessons and archery. Camping will continue to be offered as well as cottage rentals for over night visits. I also plan to have four one weekend renfaire weekends ththrough the year. A spring fest, October fest, midsummer pirate festival once we complete our forty acre lake project, and a witer festival. Four Winds will be opening a winer, mmradery, brewery and I'm looking for investors/ craftsmen we I'll also be open weekends in the evening ith music an full restaurant service once construction is complete.
We have two upcoming events this spring and Fall as the Kigdoms of Amtgard present their coronation and a Banner war. The dates for these Live Action Role play events are June 10- 12 and tenativily October 21. The cost for the Coronation of the Wetlands is $20.00 for the weekend. The cos includes camping and some food. Participants must be prepared to play in the Amtgard style. The site is available to oher LARP and historical reenactment groups such as S.C.A, E.C.S, Adria, Daggerhir, H.F.S, Nero etc... Old West, and Native American groups are welcome as well as we do have a Cherokee city mound o the property. Steampunk enthusiasts also welcome as we hope t offer more events in each of these genre throuh the year.
My hope is to create an independent self sustaining community that is beautiful and attractivattractive to a wide variety of tourists throughout the year. Please join us for our monthly full moon drum jam. Anyone interested in helping or investing in these endeavors please contact me at 903-530-7173.
