Collegium-Con?

Of course, it's on the same weekend as the Free Artillerie Company muster at Woodland. 

Volunteer to teach stuff nobody wants to hear about and pony up for a hotel room at an event where evidently the chief attraction is that "we will have the Club in the hotel to ourselves Saturday night for partying and
dancing. (Yes, there will be a bartender.) Woo hoo!"

Or educate the general public about Royalist Scots during the English Civil war right down to our spiffy reproduction firearms, jam with Dale and maybe pick up some lemonade money busking, PLUS share a potluck with re-enactors from all over the timeline (Hadrian's Wall to Viet Nam)? 

Where's my wool petticote?

Forgive me, but being cooped up in a hotel is not what I attend SCA events for. It's not medieval, it's not conducive to trying to BE medieval and given the state of my hems after every Twelfth Night, it's not even conducive to wearing one's nicest garb.

And that's not even considering the expense. $15 for a weekend of camping vs. $99/night for a hotel room just doesn't make sense to me.
