Our faire is a production of the Big Bear Valley Renaissance Society, Inc., a non-profit, educational corporation. Lynda McGinnis chose to form a non-profit corporation to pursue her goals of providing educational funds directly to students and teachers. To accomplish this, all profits outside of those to maintain Faire are devoted to education. Those of us working with Lynda share her dreams and goals of better education here in our valley, and with these goals in mind we have decided that all of the Big Bear Staff will donate their time and receive no payment.

• Our Faire is holds a High School Shakespearean Competition. The winners of the competition, one male and one female, will each receive a $500 scholarship.*

• We have our own Queens Court formed by the teachers and students of Big Bear Valley.

• We have a childrens area & Fairy Forest for kids. This has its own stage, games, and fairies to interact with. Make sure you let us know if you would like to be close to this area.

We hope you will be able to join us at our Faire this year. We hope to create the kind of atmosphere that makes coming to our Faire a truly enjoyable experience that you anticipate year after year. To help accomplish this and as a thank you for your attendance and support we would like to offer the following:
• Free camping within the encampment of your vending booth
• Low cost advertisement in our program.

In addition, we will be holding competitions for vendors:
• Costume
• Encampment (booth)

Prizes will be given for each competition. More information will follow on the competitions.

Please carefully read the application as it has lots and lots of information, and we really need the specific information we ask for to be able to best meet your needs. Please remember to be specific on what your special needs might be as there will be ABSOLUTLY NO changing of spaces after the site plan has been finalized. I look forward to seeing all of you at our Faire.

Anon,
Lady McGinnis
