Grape Stomp? I am not sure what that is, but I think I want to do it!

I've always wanted to go with a group of folks in Jedi garb, but no one would do it with me. sad

I like going to the Renaissance festival (jousting is fun to watch!) and if we can find a day that's good for all of us, I'm in.

These are so much fun. I go to the Ohio Renaissance festival every year and it's a blast. I especially love the deep fried turkey legs with a goblet of beer! I love the Mud Show the most of all! applause

Yeah, It is so cool. Kind of hard to describe but basically these 3 hilarious guys perform numerous comedy skits and cover themselves and the front 10 rows of the crowd in mud. Their website is moremud.com happy

How about we go on Saturday, September 22. That's the Celtic weekend. Which means KILTS!

That would be most cool! Have the Trek and SW folks all show up together in costume. Tradmic, could you ask them if they would be interested? Nothing better than Jedi and Klingons hanging out together. Tim can wear his Yoda Starfleet costume.

Weekend of Sept. 8 and 9 is not only the Grape Stomp, but the "Wooing Contest" and the "Best Man in Tights" contest. grin

Sept 22 and 23 is Celtic Weekend and there will be a "Men in Kilts" Contest. I hope there is some awesome prize for SuperChill to win. mischief

I'll update soon with a response as far as meeting up with the Trek group.

I am the XO of the Trek group and we decided it was best for us to go on Sunday, September 23rd because one of our members drives truck all week and is very tired on Saturdays, I usually work on Saturdays, and I think another of our group works Saturdays. Sundays are usually better for us anyway.

Is there any way that you guys could have an event/meeting on Sunday instead of Saturday, so that many more of us could attend? We are seriously trying to get more involved with your group.

I know our Chief Engineer is also a member of this forum.

The big issue for Sunday meetings are probably afternoon Steeler's games. Here is their schedule to help figure out what dates would work.
