Conventions

2007-06-28 [Hedda]: If you don't know how or don't have time, just write a URL or something here as a comment!

Please don't add too small conventions, and it of course has to be one that anyone can go to.

2007-06-28 [Cia_mar]: http://www.renfair.com/socal/

2007-06-28 [Hedda]: OK, added, but I didn't know how to describe it and the home-page isn't that clear on how it wants to be described.

2007-06-28 [Limbed]: Oh sorry. I added Elf Fantasy Fair. Next time I'll make the wiki on my own ^^ Sorry for the trouble of making the wiki yourself Hedda. ^^;;

2007-06-28 [Wen]: please have one for toronto canada

2007-06-28 [Hedda]: [Limbed]: No problem! It's much easier to correct stuff, than it is to write it in the first place. All help is wanted

2007-06-28 [Ramirez]: I made a quick little wiki for the Renaissance Fest. I'm not sure if you wanted me to add this to this wiki or not.. but the wiki is Renaissance Fest. I've never personally been there, but I have a lot of friends who go every year. It seems to be a big event.

2007-06-28 [Hedda]: The renaissance festivals and faires seem a little different as they last for 6-7 weeks. Maybe we should put them in their own table?

2007-06-28 [Ramirez]: As in Conventions and Festivals..? Conventions being a few days, and Festivals being...a few weeks or so? It might be easier for people to find places to go that are more flexible to their schedules, but it's not like the dates aren't given anyways. I guess it's up to you? -not sure if that question was directed at him- c.c;;

2007-06-28 [Mordigen]: I posted one for Dragon Con ;)

2007-06-28 [xido]: I also know that the Renaissance Festival/Fair happens all around the USA at different times of the year. Holly, Michigan, my hometown - is at the end of summer, and I know that one happens in Arizona and here in Louisiana sometime earlier in the year as well.... Not sure exactly when.

2007-06-28 [Lyndarsia]: I was going to post the DragonCon one. Heh, You beat me to it, Mordigen.

(I so can't wait to go. 62 days left! XD
