Firstly, to those who saw our original announcement, PLEASE NOTE THE DATE CHANGE.  This also affects various deadlines mentioned below.We were under the impression we had the site locked up, only to learn someone beat us to the date at the last minute.  Apologies to those who have to re-arrange schedules.  Onward...

The Event will be held on Saturday, May 3rd at the South Schodack Volunteer Fire Company.  The Site Will open at 10:00am and Close at 10 pm. 

As the trend has become to hold this event in the spring, it seemed fitting to change the name, and we don't want to invite snow in May with a name like Winterstorm anyway.  (Especially this year...) As is traditional for this event, the usual games will be played, i.e.  the boffer tournament, the blindfolded pillow fight, and"Pin the pickled herring on?" whatever character we decide to draw. 

Also, there will be a First Piece of Garb Fashion Show.  Bring your very first piece of garb to show off to the masses!  Entries may be worn or carried to the floor.  Prizes will be awarded, in categories still under consideration.  Possibilities include Best Use of Bad Fabric, Worst First Garb and several others. 

We will have space available for classes, as well as some space for merchants.  Instructors interested in teaching classes should contact the autocrat by May 1st.  Merchants wishing to guarantee space MUST contact the autocrat by May 1st. 

Those who prefer to fight may do so outside (On the assumption that the snow will have deigned to reveal the ground). 

Feast and sideboard shall be prepared by Katy the Obscure and the fabulous kitchen staff.  Those with dietary issues, including herbivores and those with allergies, should contact the Head Cook (Katy) by April 18th, 2002.  Katy will set dessert on fire, as is traditional (and ironic considering the site is a firehouse). 

Directions:

From the East:  Take your best route to I-90 West.  Take I-90 into New York State.  Get off I-90 at exit 12-B in the right-hand lane.  At the end of the ramp, turn left onto Route 9.  Take the first right (that is not an on-ramp for I-90) onto Duck Pond Road.  Follow from * below.

From the West:  Take your best route to toll free I-90 East.  Get off at exit 12 (last exit before I-90 becomes a toll road again).  At the end of the ramp turn right onto Route 9.  Take the first right onto Duck Pond Road.  * Follow Duck Pond Road until you get to the stop sign.  (There will be train tracks visible to your left, DO NOT take any road that involves crossing them.) Continue following the road you are on (it becomes Bame Road).  Follow Bame Road to the South Schodack Fire company building on the left.

Do not park in front of, or behind the lair of the mighty fire-lizards, for you are crunchy and good with ketchup!
