PARF closed on Saturday.

Really a rough season for PARF this year. My wife and I decided not to go on Sunday since even if it doesn't snow all that much it will still be too cold for us on Sunday to risk her already compromised health. So no PARF for us. We’ll have to content ourselves with CRF on November  12th.  :-\

This is sad news, but at least your wife will get to convalesce a little longer...everything is more uncomfortable when you're ailing as it is.

I'm thinking that if the weather does do what's predicted PaRF will not open Sunday either. I just can't see that the parking lots will be cleared or in any shape to park in. The grounds will likely be a mess and the joust field will not be useable either. We shall see. My first season on cast has not been a stellar one for Faire, but I did enjoy myself. Hopefully next season is better. Sir Brian, I shall see you at CRF, I'm planning to do the Peascod Breast and Back Sat. and the Brig on Sunday because I'm crazy like that. I haven't worn the Brig all season so I'm missing it a bit.

PaRF is now closed on Sunday as well. Apparently there was some substantial damage on the shire. The parking lots are also unuseable at this point, they are grass and the snow can not be cleared from them. Sir Uhlrich, if you already purchased tickets, check the website as you can send them in for an exchange for next season.

It could be worse, you could be one of the vendors who have probably lost hundreds if not thousands of dollars this season with the poor weather and multiple early closings. Not to mention this makes three days this season Faire didn't even open. In 20 years of attending, I can not remember ever not even opening.

Sir Brian, wishes of speedy recovery for your wife.

I will make plans to attend PARF next year - this year wasn't possible due to schedule conflicts.

I assure you, Sir Ulrich, they did not do it to spite you.  You'll come out with a bang next year, no?
