Immuel Lutheran's Reformation Renfaire

Craigmeister • August 13, 2019

Good day. Early last fall, a school in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma let me know that they were interested in expanding their annual Reformation Fair. They had heard that I visit a lot of Renaissance Faires and wanted to know if I could help advise them. I posted about the situation before I was able to arrange a meeting with their planners.

Their planners are some VERY busy teachers and I didn’t get a reply about a meeting for several months so I thought that I wouldn’t be needed. In the past few months though, the teachers’ schedules loosened up and we have had some meetings. So, in short, I’d like to announce the Immanuel Lutheran’s Reformation Renaissance Faire !

Due to other events at the school, it will be held on Saturday, November 2nd, 2019. However, the date in 2020 will be on October 24th. For all of you who are committed to the Hot Springs (AR) Medfaire or the King’s Medfaire in Glenpool (OK) this year, we would love to see you in 2020! This year, you could visit ILRRF and/or 1 of these Medfaires (or all 3 if you like driving).

There will be a free admission craft fair going on inside the school/church at the same time the Renfaire is going on outside. The Renfaire will be free for kids 10 & under or $5 for all over the age of 10. Most of the entertainment is already lined up but we will be taking vendor applications and perhaps a few performers who would work for tips and to sell cd’s, t-shirts, etc. The average attendance of the existing craft fair is about 800 people each year.

There should be plenty of fun things for kids and adults to do all day including archery and working trebuchets! This event will be held on church grounds so I’d appreciate it if you will tell me if I’m misbehaving that day. HUZZAH!

Good day! I have created a new page on my website. It contains collections of links to photos, reports in the lanes, interviews as well as performance videos organized by individual faires. So far, I have compiled links to some of the 1st Renfaires that happen in Oklahoma each spring. If you like them, I will add more faires to the page. https://www.meistersrealm.com/re-live-a-renfaire-here

Good day! Would you like to see a panel of Renfaire enthusiasts relaying stories & answering questions in a dry, air-conditioned environment? Then you can join Heath Miller, Tina Englehardt Nettles, Careena Campbell, Holly Anne Black & me at the OKC Fairgrounds on Saturday, July 26th. (You can learn about them on the Renfest Info And Fun Podcast. I have an episode interviewing each of these amazing people.) Our time on stage will begin at 4 p.m. We will also have a booth at the event. I am quite sure that there will be plenty of other grand things to do the rest of the day as well. You can garb up & join us as we give the cosplay world a Rennie flavor. Huzzah! https://www.facebook.com/events/1235600164753836?acontext=%7B%22event_action_history%22%3A[%7B%22mechanism%22%3A%22attachment%22%2C%22surface%22%3A%22newsfeed%22%7D]%2C%22ref_notif_type%22%3Anull%7D

Well met! I have published Renfest Info And Fun Podcast # 10. It is an interview with Careena Campbell that I conducted a couple of years ago. Not only is she a Rennie, her alter ego can be found at Wren Fairy Cosplay on the Book of Faces . You can listen to the podcast on Apple, iHeart, Podbean, Amazon, Player FM and/or Podchaser. This podcast is another Easter egg for something coming in the near future. Stay tuned...

Oh, my! There will be a mid-week small, short Renfaire in Broken Arrow on Wednesday, June 4th. In Tulsa street terms, it will be on the southwest corner of 101st Street South & 145th East Avenue. If we can show the library system that they have something great on their hands, mayhems they will move it to a weekend... https://www.facebook.com/events/640413532326316/?acontext=%7B%22event_action_history%22%3A[%7B%22mec...
