New Pirate Group Forming


Recommended Posts

Don't reinvent the wheel.  There is period equipment all around you, you just have to look at with a different set of eyes.  Boats is one of the best encampment designers around and RumbaRue is also a great resource for what to use for encampments.

Rumba, in your opinion, besides painters canvas, landscaping poles, and dowels, can you think of anything else that would be needed for the structure only?

rope and heavy duty tent stakes for tying the thing down.

**Boats gets his ideas from me** :huh:

Just call me the 'Dumpster Diver Queen'....I have found terrific things that people here at my complex throw out. Just give me time, I can furnish the whole camp for little or no money. :huh::huh:

It will be nice to have another group of pirates in Pyrate's Cove.

"There be the chest, inside be the gold, we took them all. Spent them and traded them. We frittered them away on drink and food and pleasurable company. The more we gave them away, the more we came to realize... the drink would not satisfy, food turned to ash in our mouths, and all the pleasurable company in the world could not slake our lust. We are cursed men....Compelled by greed we were, and now we are consumed by it."

What would be cool is not only to be in the vicinity of Stranglehold, but maybe members of that group would like to come and put on demonstrations of things.

I always believe in having a good relations with groups that support us with 'cross-membership'.

However, I think having our group a little closer to the food court would be a good thing. More people to draw over to us.

That whole area to the right as you enter pyrates cove was taken up by a group of kids who played with sticks the whole time. I'm sure Dick would be happy to give you that space, and it runs right across from the bench seating at the food court.

We all need to get together for a real meeting, not here at the Pub.

My weekends for now are open. Boats currently has the next few weekends open. Sundays are good if it's in the late afternoon.

How about it all? Where to meet? I'd say at my place, but I don't think the Orange County contingent wants to drive down here, and funny, I don't think the San Diego contingent wants to drive up there.... :lol:

is temmecula a half way point? or lake perris or (are there any casinos in that half way neighbor hood? What if we all went to Koroneburg and asked Tom to let us in and discussed the possibility of having a full time guild there in one of the empty store fronts? we could all meet at this dart bar in Norco? or or or? cant be this sunday or superbowl weekend right all you football enthusiasts? so in two weekends we can all meet somewhere (isnt there a casino in temecula) I can get five in my new van with me thats six and since I can't drink i'm the designated driver anyway. Lets all meet in san clemente at the western whitehouse! or the docks in Oceanside? come on mates throw some ideas in here!

I suggest the Harbor House Cafe in Dana Pt. Lots of great food, and there's an area in the back of the restraunt we can meet. OR we could meet at the Orange County Marine Institute in Dana Pt.

No going out to Corona spot and Tom, sorry the I find the site very negative...

No there are no casino's in Temecula- you have to go to Pala which is pretty far. Heck I've got Valley View Casino in my neck o' the woods, just a fifeeten minute or less drive from me...

I am going to corona to meeet with tom this saturday morning and walk out to the area I asked to get and if we get it I'm going to do some preventative pest control and a high presure washdown. I am also going to be going over the map of Palm Springs where we will get our area to set up in.

Items we need to go over and soon are:

Who is going? who has what to bring? when is it going to get there as in palm springs like las vegas its three days the kids come in from school on friday and its open friday and saturday nights. once i see the area we'll get (and i expect small) a few canvas lean too's will most probably be all we need there. then escondido is the very next weekend and it goes two weekends in a row and I need the list done in three weeks about who is going to be gate listed there! if you are gate listed and you don't get there before gate opens you pay a reduced price to get in. We need to get the list started for both faires and please P M me I'll write the list down so as to supply it to the producers. I will be on site and into the night setting up thursday night in palm springs. HELP is needed there if you can talk? you are encouraged to assist.

Diego, you know I'll help when and where I can...unfortunately only Sundays fer now.

I just had a thought....a friend of mine as an easy up that she has created a cover for. Its Samiah, she makes those gorgeous coats..anyways. she has made a cover for the top and sides out of squares of tapestry and it looks gorgeous! what if we look at doing a simple easy-up and make something very opulent and dramatic...after all we all be successful pirates and have much loot to contribute to our "home base". so we make a cover for the top and sides, display our plunder and treasure with lots of pillows and or benches for the patrons to sit upon while they hear tales of our adventures ( stories ). This would be easy to do and easy for a smaller number of people to set-up for the smaller faires.....just an idea.

I suggested an easy-up idea already, but heard no reponse about it.

I do think it is the way to go. It's easily covered and easily stored.

Agenda for meeting; who's in charge of what and duties that go with it. We will need some kind of policies and procedures if this group is going to be under the Biggins name.

Exactly what are we doing at these events- besides reading stories- and what kind of stories. Book lists for kids, who is going to do that?

We get paid for doing events- what's to be done with the money?

How the camp will look, who is paying for what to get things done?

So that's the kind of stuff we need to deal with.

I vote for the 5th of February at Scarlett's place in Anahiem, around 2 PM. How does that sound for everybody?

*Note to Barbados Sam and Killian, you two could carpool, and perhaps maybe we can meet and car caravan to Scarlett's.

Anyone else in the San Diego area who is interested in joining in, PM Diego first.
