NorthCoastPyrate Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 Looking for other pyrates in the Cleveland area, or a reasonable drive. Any festivals on the Great Lakes?
captjacksparrowsavvvy Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 There was a Pirate fest on Lake Ontario last weekend, in Olcott, NY. I haven't heard of any other Great Lakes pirate fests...
michaelsbagley Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 I'm in Columbus just a couple of hours down the road from Cleaveland.... As for strictly Pirate festivals.... Not so much out here.... There is (was?) Great Lakes Medieval Faire Thier web site .... They have a Pirate theme weekend, next weekend it seems.... It's a long drive, but there is the Toronto Pirate Festival at the end of August... It would be about 5 hours drive for you. I only go because I am originally from Toronto... Toronto Pirate Festival Web Site The Archangel crew seem to be centered in Indiana and Illionois... You may want to contact them about any events they may have in those areas. There is the Ohio Renaissance Festival Thier web site.... They seem to have a Pirate themed weekend in Mid-september. It's closer to Cincy, so that would be about a 3 to 3 and half hour drive for you.... There is probably more... but off the top of my head that is most of what I know.

I'll look into the Pirate Weekend. This weekend, we take our daughter aboard the Nautica Queen in Cleveland for Capt'n Willie's cruise. He is a tame pirate. In August, we'll be in Cincinnati for the Whynot. That should be great. Next year we'll probably try to get out to the Blackbeard Festival in Virginia. Thank you again.

Thanks again for the info on the Medieval Faire. We had a blast and ran into plenty of pyrates, from Barboza to Jack Sparrow and everyone in between. Keep the wind in your sails . . .
michaelsbagley Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 Your welcome on the tip for the pirate weekend at Great Lakes Faire... I wish I could have been there myself, some good friends of mine were there and I would have liked to be there to enjoy.... Unfortunately other obligations kept me elsewhere.... Sorry M.A.d'Dogge, I wasn't trying to pidgeon-hole the Archangel crewe as being a strictly Indiana and Illinois group, but those areas (and Wisconsin) seem to be the areas where the highest concentration of members live and go to events (although you have members everywhere and go to events in many other places)... Saying you were centered in that area just seemed like an easier way of saying all of that.
