[Wyewood] June Faire canceled

[Ruslund Geyer]

Greetings, Wyewood. What follows is a message regarding the cancelation of
this year's June Faire.
In Service,
Avine 


Greetings unto Mighty An Tir, Greatest Kingdom in the Known World!

With sorrow in our hearts, we announce that June Faire 2020 has been
cancelled.

June Faire is our largest and busiest event and public demo. Our 2020 core
Event Team is almost 30 members and that does not include the scores of
volunteers who assist at gate; behind the scenes with layout, camping,
trash, and tear down; and conduct demonstrations for arts & sciences as well
as the many martial activities.

As COVID-19 progresses through our region, disrupting both our modern lives
and our Dream, we felt it necessary to cancel. Even if the risk of such a
large gathering were deemed minute, the recovery from these months will take
time. We want to plan our largest event with joy and excitement, not with
the pressure and stress of a potential cancellation and at increasing cost.
We want our Populace, Friends, and Neighbors to be safe and healthy, to
recover and recuperate, and to be excited when it is once again time to plan
our June Faire.

Dragon's Laire does not plan to reschedule June Faire for later in the 2020
event season, we will return in June, 2021!

For those who have pre-registered, thank you! If you pre-registered using
PayPal, they will not be processed. If you sent in a check, we will mail it
back or shred it. If you are a Merchant, Master Arion asks that you please
