explaining their projects.  Come ask questions.

Culinary Championship
Competition:  Entries of period food in the
Championship must have documentation of some sort. Given that
amenities for cooking at the site are limited, plan accordingly.
There are barbecue pits but probably best to bring your own propane
stoves if you need to cook or reheat your entry onsite. The
Championship will be chosen via populace choice.  Entries need
to be delivered by 11:00 to the tables by the kitchen
area.
