Things to know before you come: We only accept CASH at the admission gate--no checks, no cards. The artisans may take additional forms of payment however. No atv's, side x sides, utvs on the event grounds (you can use them to get here and park, just not use them in the event area). Wheelchairs and power wheelchairs are OK, but the ground is sandy and bumpy in some spots. No pets, even leashed. This is an outdoor venue. You are in the country, so wear appropriate footwear. The weather looks like it will be pretty agreeable, and there is considerable scattered shade. If there are any other announcements I will try to share those early in the morning. Gate opens at 10!! See you tomorrow!

Hide tanning is not for the faint of heart, but is a traditional skill requiring patience and persistence, and fortunately Laura and Joanne possess those qualities. They, along with mentor Dick, will enlighten you about the process on Oct. 4 & 5. THIS weekend!
