So who will be defnitely be at MDRF for final weekend?? Sat or Sun if I make the trek down. I'll stay for the weekend if I do. Anyone who needs a place to crash, I'll have a hotel room nearby.

I'll be squire-less so ... my armor options are limited. Guess I'll just do maille with adornments & Great Helm.

I'm usually in the parking lot between 9:45 - 10:30 and could help you armor up if you wish Lord Dane.

I'll be there sunday as well and can help with armoring up as long as I haven't been completely armored up either. I might be able to do so after, if I take off my gauntlets, but as I've never tried, I don't want to make that offer. But for closing day, you'll want to be armored up. Last year I missed the big group photos with everyone in armor and costume - I'm guessing there was 12 or 14 people there at the joust field letting people take photos.

Squire Jason is usually on site fairly early, since his wife is on cast. He's usually willing to help with armoring up too.

Perhaps the easiest thing would be to shoot for a group time/place to meet to armor up - but might be hard to do that in the parking lot...

I'm often one of the last to show up. I'm going to try to push ourselves out the door a little faster, since it'll be the last day, but we'll see how it works out. The drive is definitely longer for us this year too.

I'm finding that I often don't get in the gate until 11-11:30.

The White-Hart area where we met up initially, on the side facing the food court, is a nice open area where it's easy to find people, so over the years it has sort of turned into the de-facto meeting area.

Hopefully we can all be there before 1:00 PM and meet up behind the Market stage (next to the joust field) for an armor photo op. Make sure to invite anyone else who is in armor to be there by 1:00 PM. We try and coordinate this every year on DOW and it is gradually growing in numbers.  :)

Awesome!

BTW, the weather report is looking good. Partly cloudy, and low '60s. Great armor weather!

With it being cool like that, I may bring out the riveted mail.
