There will be lots of buccaneers and rovers at the Old Fort MacArthur Days this year. Both the Rogue Privateers and the Port Royal Privateers will be there setting up camp. Cap'n Michael, myself, and our furry crew will be setting up with the Rogue Privateers (in fact, Cap'n Michael is the Captain for the event). We'll be encamped next to the Winged Hussars, so shouldn't be hard to find. The Rogue Privateers will have plenty of artillery present. So lots of excitement. For the youngun's we'll have a spar set up for them to explore, and feel what it was like to climb out on the yard, on the footropes, and reef the sail. We'll also have period games for young and old…

So we're almost home and I couldn't wait to post about this event. So here I am, feet up on the dashboard, still in kitn toes poking through the holes in my stockings, posting on my pink Blackberry. Yeah, that's right. Mickey and I arrived in Havre De Grace at 4:30 Friday afternoon, a stark contrast to our usual 2 am show times. Also, we didn't get lost once or have to call anyone for directions! Black John showed up not long after and we stood around and talked a while before starting to set up camp under a lovely shade tree. Shortly, the Half Moon Maurauders showed up and pitched camp too. Lady Brower and I had been yapping on the phone and pm-ing back and forth for …

What a great event! Lots of friendly familiar faces and a few new ones to boot! Nothing could have dampened the spirits of this event – even though a deluge on Friday may have hindered setting up camp, yet…we all continued to pray for better weather and come Sunday we had sun and warmer temps! Both Pirate and Pirate Hunter showed the crowds our best this past weekend. The crowds were good and even the one of the Event Coordinator for Downtown Hampton stopped by to give praises to our Pirate Hunter’s camp! A big thank you to Blackbeard’s crew, the Bone Island Buccaneers for coming so far to ‘play’ to Gentleman Scotty and his lovely wife Kate who stopped by the pirat…

My wife and I will be attending this event. We've been planning for months. This will be the first event we are attending in PC gear. I'm wondering if it is possible for us to hang out in the PC camp for a bit and see what it is like. We both have interest in attending other events already. Who would I need to contact or ask politely (please) to test the waters for a few hours? Thanks in advance for any info.
