Emerging from the myst ascending from the Glenn, rise the spires of the Ancient Castle that gives unto this magical place its name, Stone Tower Glenn. The majestic towers look over the brilliant white tents of the Faire below. Festive music complements the joyful sounds of laughter and merriment that abounds here. While the aromas of delicious foods drift through the Merchant tents filled with wondrous wares, marvel at the archers from the Greenwood as they demonstrate their skills from lands far and near. Array thyself in your favorite garb and join us for a weekend of amazing Performers, Games to test your skills, and more Wonders than can be enjoyed in a single day. |
