Subject: [sca-merchants] Conflicts with Holiday Faire weekend - Atlantia
(Greater DC Metroplex)


A group in Atlantia has reserved the Holiday Faire weekend and will 
not allow conflicting events, which means HF will have to find a new 
site and a new date.  I'm wondering what other's reaction is to this.
.. I'm more than slightly peeved about the whole thing and will 
likely boycott the conflicting event and may encourage others to do 
the same.  

FWIW, I'm not a member of either group and our booth is not something 
we do to earn a living.  It just seems... tacky.

The Atlantia event page is http://acorn.atlantia.sca.org/calendar.php. The 
Atlantia group in question is Dun Carraig. They have indeed pre-empted 
Stierbach's Holiday Faire weekend on November 18th, which has always been 
held the weekend before Thanksgiving. They appear to have other events 
scheduled on February 25th and April 22nd. We shall notably and pointedly 
avoid them and all other Dun Carraig events in the future until they learn 
better manners.

BTW, we are not members of either group, but have supported and promoted 
Stierbach for over five years now, and our booth *is* something we do to 
make a living. We shall simply make a point of avoiding making a living in 
their territory.

Is there any way to bring this to the attention of their Atlantean 
Majesties?

YIS,
