Here are just a few of the many wonderful memories you shared from our Facebook Contest! Thanks so much for your comments! We appreciate each and everyone of you!
Taking my little boy for his first time last year and getting to see Mitt Lennox perform. Such a sad story BUT so grateful for his legacy!!
My favorite mLast year memory at Garf, Last year for my birthday my father, husband, and children took me for my birthday. Everyone dressed up and made a whole day of it! I loved it so much! We go to Garf at lest 4 times every year! But it was nice for my family to get together and go and have fun as a group.
I CAN NOT WAIT. i have to attend multiple times a year when in town. my first trip was as a child on a field trip with school. i now enjoy being able to take my child or go with friends for fun, great for kids or adults. looking forward to everything! Food, shopping, shows and laughter!! and yes the acrobats put in an entertaining show
Last year my son was so excited to go back the the ren fest that he saved his birthday Christmas and allowance for months. All he could talk about was getting a dragon, a sword, and a coin necklace with a wolf on one side and dragon on the other. He was so proud as he walked around with his necklace and blue dragon friend on his shoulder.
My favorite memory is 13 yrs ago this was mine ane my now husbands first real date. we loved it so much we had a renaissance wedding 2 years later.
Celebrating the end of my mom’s chemo on Mother’s Day with the whole family and it was also my son’s and nephew’s first time!
My favorite memory is when my son was 6 (he’s 21 now) and he was IN LOVE with the belly dancer, who traveled just with her drummer. He would stop and stare and watch and watch and watch. I thought it was just adorable how he was mesmerized by her. The best part? He finally got a kiss on a cheek from her. He still remembers her to this day too.
