We are preparing for another great faire! Come see us for a henna tattoo, face painting, or a fun kid temporary tattoo.

Hello all I am interested in attending as a new artist. I have been attending Ren-fest and SCA events for several years. I normally travel the comic book conventions but I am thinking of getting back heavily into the fantasy circuit once again.

I had a fantastic time at the Mid-Michigan Renaissance Festival. I really enjoy the forest setting and all of the merchants and performers were very considerate and offered up a wealth of information about their craft. The Gutterpups ware extraordinary performers (I have their CD for my car ride to work) and the Society for Creative Anachronism members were very helpful in dispensing tons and tons of information about their fighting techniques and armor making ideas. When those kids are invited to the "Whack a Knight" session, it is hilarity for all! The "dragon leg" (turkey leg) was the best I've had and went well with my root beer while listening to the Gutterpups. I'm looking forward to the expansion of the festival in years to come, and commend you on organizing such a complex event. Well done! The Rangers have lots of great ideas for next year including an archery display and I got a kick out of Tweedler the Fool who had me laughing plenty of times throughout the day. a link to my photos and video can be found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jeffwiden/sets/72157622614572560/

Once again, thanks for an excellent time.

Had a wonderful time today! So glad to see the fair growing and looking forward to coming back again next year.

My friends, boyfriend, daughter and I would like to thank you all for the amazing experience we had at the faire on Halloween!

My boyfriend and I are dorks... huge dorks. My daughter is growing up with an appreciation of the finer things in life, Anime, role playing, books and a great love for fantasy. Things have been very rough financially for the last six months or so, and the plans we had to go to the Ren Fest in Holly had to be put on hold. Elorah was really looking forward to going, but I had come to peace with not being able to take her there when I happened across a link to your website while looking up local trick or treating times. With the $1 coupon for each of us, and Elorah being free because she was in costume, we were able to cash in our bucket of change and afford tickets to visit the faire on Halloween!

Everyone was so nice, and Elorah got extra treats for Halloween. She was the little dark fairy who won the costume contest. She still carries around the marshmallow gun she won. It's a fun reminder that we probably wouldn't have been able to afford otherwise. I still feel bad that we weren't able to show the performers more appreciation for the shows, but next year when we come back we'll make sure to have enough saved up that we can make up for this year!

The Mid Michigan Ren Fest is on our list of new family traditions, I'm sure you'll all see us for Halloweens to come!

Thank you so much for the hospitality and kindness we were greeted with by everyone we encountered! I certainly won't be traveling to Holly for a ren faire any longer, there is a high quality one so much nearer (and now dearer to my heart).

I just found out that this part of michigan has a Ren Fest. That is FANTASTIC.
