Northern Region Warcamp AND East Kingdom Royal Equestrian Championships

The drums of war beat in the distance.  They are calling you, are you ready?

Fighters, archers, fencers, and equestrians have a chance to put into practice those skills needed to ensure Eastern victory on the battlefields of Pennsic! 

Site info:

Camping is in an open field with no trees for shade.  All campsites are in close proximity to all martial activities.  Clean, potable water is accessible throughout the site, but there will be no food vendors.  Please plan accordingly.

Flush toilets and showers are available onsite, in addition to handwashing stations and portable toilets.

We plan to have Court outside, so bring your own seating.  In case of inclement weather, there is space under a roof for the festivities.  There is plenty of space along the side of the fencing and heavy weapon fields for day shades.

We have trailer/camper space with electric hookups available.  Reservations are not needed.

1.  Leashed dogs are permitted, but must remain leashed throughout the duration of the event.  Bring proof of rabies vaccination with you.  Retractable leashes should not allow your pet to cross into common walkways.  Roaming or unleashed dogs will be sent home with their humans.  Pick up after your dog for the health and safety of all.
