Be excellent to one another!
There will be more guidelines for this specific site updated here:
Cost is $20 to come for the day. $45 for Thursday-Sunday (no discount for later arrivals).
There are cabin bunks for an additional $10. We know traveling by air can curtail what gear you are able to bring, so those fit this description are offered a cabin bunk for free.
There is no charge for those aged 14 and under.
Ragnaroc is a medievally themed event that is hosted by the Abbey (of the Wanton Wailing War Widows of Ardesca); which is a branch within the Kingdom of Ardesca https://www.kingdomofardesca.org/
Overall, it is part of the Empire of Medieval Pursuits http://empiremp.org/

We mostly fight with weapons made of rattan, but we also do rebated steel. Here's our conventions of combat: http://empiremp.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/EMP_Conventions_of_Combat_v2018.pdf,

That's a lot to read, but don't worry! We often have new fighters on the field at this event and welcome the chance to go over how we treat one another with excellence when we meet face to face.
You don't need to be a member of the Empire of Medieval Pursuits to attend. We don't have any additional surcharges, or taxes on non-members. Many in our club play in other organizations, like Historical Medieval Battles, Belegarth, Society for Creative Anachronism, Amtguard, and so many more!
The short answer is likely, "yes." We treat our vendors like everyone else: pay at the gate and we trust you to run your business within the bounds of Washington's rules and regulations. Your profits are yours. We like to keep our merchants set up near one another so as to facilitate shopping, so do let us know you're coming: theabbey.ragnaroc@gmail.com
No. However, your ADA dog is welcome (https://www.ada.gov/topics/service-animals/). No, this does not include ESA friends, no matter how well behaved.
Thank you! What we can certainly use is folks to help with a 2-hour shift or two at the entry gate. It's a great way to meet people as they come in. Send and email to find out more: TheAbbey.Ragnaroc@gmail.com
