There is a small parking lot at the facility, additional parking on
the street, and plenty of parking in the lot across the street to
the east of the hall. There will be a 10×10 popup for outside
shelter.

Pre-Registration:
Due to the Banquet Permit requirement for a guest list, please send
an email to Annaka (alphamike99 at yahoo dot com) with the SCA
Names and Mundane names of those in your party, including youth.
This will also speed up gate check-in and help us plan the food.

page is nice but does not get you on the guest list. Pay at the
Door.
