Capt. Sterling Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 It seems some sites may have the wrong date up for camp set up down at PiP. This is being corrected... but just a reminder that camps can not be set up until Wednesday Dec. 2...so please take this into consideration when arranging traveling plans...

Hawkyns Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 Is there a time before which we should not arrive? Ny travel schedule will probably put me there first thing in the morning. Hawkyns Cannon add dignity to what otherwise would be merely an ugly brawl I do what I do for my own reasons. I do not require anyone to follow me. I do not require society's approval for my actions or beliefs. if I am to be judged, let me be judged in the pure light of history, not the harsh glare of modern trends.
Capt. Sterling Posted November 3, 2009 Author Posted November 3, 2009 Good question... I will find out... I believe the gates normally open at 8am for the park, but I will confirm as if there is someone from the BiB or Fayma is present, they may be able to allow folks in earlier on Wednesday...

Fayma Callahan Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 Just for the "official" word regarding this thread: Camp set ups begin on Wednesday, as that is the date that the Park has started our "volunteer" status. Gate opens around 7am with staff present. I will be on-site, so if you arrive earlier than that, please call me and I can make appropriate arrangements. If anyone has already made plans to be in the Fort Tuesday, please email me at: faymacallahan@aol.com so that I can arrange a place for you. No one will be turned "out in the cold". I apologize for the confusion, and things with the Park are often difficult to decode. Now, where's that decoder ring...dang... gotta find that... See you all soon!

Capt. Sterling Posted November 3, 2009 Author Posted November 3, 2009 Thanks Fayma for clarifying this...

Soap issues were there last year....found a way around that........but I'm not telling......no I didn't take a shower in the nude in the moon light....lol
Capt. Sterling Posted November 12, 2009 Author Posted November 12, 2009 (edited) Well last year there were no showers provided, this year they will be, so, sorry to say, soap has become an issue.

Diosa De Cancion Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 Ah, I am just a substitute runner, tis Fayma that is hitting the ball out of the park with all her hard work for we reenactors... So, I haven't been saying much lately, but yes, Fayma has done WAAAAYYYY MORE than any of us can ever know or really appreciate to have this festival happen this year. We all owe her so much gratitude it's immeasurable! She does this for her love of her pirate family and is killing herself while working tough hours and eating up all of her free time with this. We owe her a lot and all better be very very very good to her at PIP! She deserves to enjoy a stress free fest! Diosa De Cancion aka Mary Read www.iammaryread.com
Bos'n Cross Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 Then a hearty HUZZAHH!!! for Fayma, and i shall attacke her person with hugs and thank yous at pip! ........................Indeed soap is my only remaining issue(that i can think of)...........which i hope to clarify soon.......... -Israel Cross- - Boatswain of the Archangel - .
