Only prepaid preregistrations will assure you a bunk. We reserve the right to place more people in a reserved cabin if your group does not fill all ten bunks in it. There is no hard cap on the number of attendees, however we only have bunks for 60 people. After 60, people will need to sleep on floors in cabins or bring tents. Feast Info The feast is provided by Vanderkamp's staff, and usually consists of salad, hot meat, hot vegetable, bread, and dessert. They offer water, iced tea, hot tea and coffee as beverages. The feast is dry. You are encouraged to bring your own feast gear, however Vanderkamp provides place settings if you do not wish to bring yours. Enclosed candles are preferred. Short tapers and pillars are okay providing they are in a proper base and handled with care. The event staff reserves the right to ask people to extinguish candles at any time, and for any reason. Dirty dishes: Do NOT use the bathroom sinks to clean your feast gear. A trash can and dish washing/rinsing water will be provided after the feast. Additional Information Fundraiser Raffle: this is an expensive event for us to host, so we have a raffle to help defray costs. Items in previous years have included PlastiDip weapons from Wynar, plate armor from Mercenary's Tailor, weapons from Forged Foam, and leatherwork by yours truly. Everyone gets a ticket for coming, more are available for purchase. If you are a crafter or a merchant and want to attend, we will gladly accept approved donations of raffle prizes in lieu of your event site fee. Spirit of Dagorhir Tournament: A Swiss-format tournament where all competitors get graded on win/loss record, loadout, appearance, and sportsmanship. Prizes awarded for the winner of each category as well as an overall. Waivers: all participants will need to fill out a Winterfell chapter waiver, found here: http://www.winterfell-dago rhir.com/winterfell-dagorhir.com/Information.aspx Winterfell allows fighters 16 and older, but if you're under 18 you will need to bring a notarized waiver, or a parent to fill it out in my presence. Cooking: There are firepits (rough stone rings) at each cabin. There are also gas grills available, but you'll need to bring your own full-size propane tank. Alternately, there's a large convenience store/small grocery store about 3 miles from the site in the town of Cleveland. They have a deli there that does good subs, chicken fingers, stuff like that - but it closes at 9 pm. Footwear: Shoes/boots/sandals/some type of footwear is required at all times when outside of buildings. We regularly find buried broken glass, nails, and other such unsavory crap half-buried on the trails and around the fire pits. Conduct: The campsite is owned by a Christian group. As such, loud foul language should be avoided, as well as anything that would be outright offensive. If you cross a line and jeapordize my ability to hold events here, you will be punched in the balls quickly and viciously. Monster Hunt: Want to kill a minotaur? Fight an ogre? Fend off waves of shambling zombies? In the dark, in the woods, danger in every shadow, it's one of the most scary and immersive scenarios ever! Merchants: All are welcome. Regular $20 site fee must be paid, no other fees apply. If you wish, we can arrange some tables in and near a cabin and set up a "bazaar" for multiple vendors. Sleeping Facilities: The cabins are unheated, uninsulated, and most don't have glass in the windows, only screens. Only two of the six cabins have electrical outlets (although all of them have electric lights). We have a few kerosene heaters for people who are really sensitive to the cold, but there's six cabins and only a few heaters, so get there early to claim one - or bring your own. If you're going to heat your cabin, you will need to cover the windows. We like to use a staple gun and a few wool surplus blankets, but you could probably just use black plastic. Honestly, just bring a good sleeping bag and you'll be fine. It's October, not January. Bathroom Facilities: Male and female bathhouses with running water, flush toilets and hot showers. Winterfell House Rules: Metal knees, elbows and hands are fine. Curved shields are measured on the chord, not the arc. Maximum gauge of metal for helmets is ignored. Undead are invincible. Don't start none, won't be none. Winterfell House Rules: Metal knees, elbows and hands are fine. Curved shields are measured on the chord, not the arc. Maximum gauge of metal for helmets is ignored.
