Heads up me hearties… Who say’s that Pirates have hard hearts? One of our own from PRP that works tirelessly for the charities our group supports, has gone under the needles for CHOC, "Children’s Hospital of Orange County" and made the events part of his life forever. Two years ago, after the passing of a 5 year old for which we had done a Make A Wish event, our PRP “Jack” made it a yearly venture to gather up Actors from POTC and PRP Pirates alike and head back to CHOC for an Annual fundraiser in the memory of little Jonnie, our smallest "Capt'n Jack" and a memory we all cherish . The Event has grown bigger every year. Below be the Tattoo he’s been emblazoned w…

If you haven't been to this event, you should! Felicita Park is beautiful and a perfect setting for a great time. I am not selling this time, but hanging with my counterparts at Pirates of Treasure Cove. I will only be there the first weekend. Hopefully I'll be seeing some of you there! Rumba

(Disclaimer. This is not exactly on topic, and the mods can move it to elsewhere if they so please, but I thought I'd give everyone a heads up just in case they'd be interested in seeing something different.) This coming weekend, at the Lock House Museum in Havre de Grace, Maryland, my friends will be holding a reenactment of the Battle of Clontarf. I may be mistaken, but I believe groups from England will be there, and also the Longship Company, with their replica viking longship. If you are in the area, drop in. It'll probably be pretty cool. I may be there taking pictures. I won't be reenacting, since I have other duties during the day and/or weekend. There's a leng…

Greetings All! I don't know if you have heard about this or not but, I wanted to share. On April 26 & 27, 2008 the 1st Annual Joplin Keltoi Renaissance Faire opens up at Oronogo, Mo (outside of Joplin, Mo). The gentleman who owns it is looking for vendors and performers for the faire. He asked me to contact any vendors and performers that I knew of and have them in turn contact him to discuss availability and booking fees. He and his wife, Lane, are truly wonderful people and the site is absolutely beautiful - a good mixture of trees (old and new growth) and open areas. The owners name is Bruce Morgan and he can be reached via e-mail at: bruce…

Forgive me, since I'm not the organizer of the event, I'm just the messenger just trying to pass the word. Here's the link to the schedule of events. You can backlink from the site to get the overall gist of the event. http://www.piratewalk.com/piratefestschedule.htm I happen to stumble across the site when I was trying to get info about the White Horse Tavern http://www.whitehorsetavern.com, the oldest pub in the United States, started by a son of a famous pirate. Newport's a great town if you are a pirate at heart. Don't forget the Tall Ships event at the end of June. In either case, this is as close to the real deal as you can get.

Iron Jack, Patrick Hand and I spent the weekend at the Mt. Ranch Muzzleloaders Rendezvous in Railroad Flat, California (which is in the mountains northeast of the Stockton area.) We decided to try our hand at creating a primitive camp and representing pirates at this event. Patt has been trying to get other folks to join him at these events for awhile so we took him up on this one. We got there Friday morning and were met at the gate by a man with a dead coyote on his head. He gave us the rules and told us where everything was, in particular the primitive camp area. At this event, you have the option of camping in the "tin tipi" area or the primitive area, but in the…

The time has finally come! Our long-awaited Renaissance Pleasure Faire in Irwindale, CA is just around the corner. Our Friends of Faire group has a few members here on the Pub, and we will be responsible for the Faire English Weather this year. Do stop by the FOF garden and you may be sprinkled with a bit of the wet weather yourself! Or, perhaps, it may be just a sprinkling of rose petals to adorn thee and welcome in the new spring season! Remember, the Biggins will also be hosting a "guild yard" this year and everyone is welcome to participate in our period games or the "ask Pappy" hour each day. 'Looking forward to seeing everyone in the area at least once!…
