And now for something a bit more pleasant..
It's time to start thinking about Valhalla! Yeah, it's still all snowy up there, but Camp Rich survived the fires last year, and we're all looking forward to a great year. The dates are May 31, June1, and June 6-7
If you worked for me last year, send me email to tahoealestands at gmail dot com.
If you didn't work last year, but would like to this year...please send me email and let me know who you are, if you have worked ale before, if so where, why you want to work ale at tahoe, what you favourite beer is, If you can make both weekend, and what the weight of an unladen swallow is. We still have a few of positions available, and always like to see new faces in the stands.
As well as familiar faces :)

Re: Valhalla 2008
Wed, April 9, 2008 - 12:45 PMOK Lambykins,
I wanna come play at Valhalla! I can be there both weekends. Many years experience at REC/LHC, and a couple years being your bitch at the DICK. My favorite beer is a good Belgian Lambic.
AND... the weight of an unladen swallow is directly proportionate to the size of your load, Daddy!

Re: Valhalla 2008
Thu, April 10, 2008 - 10:09 PMI'll be new to Valhalla this year, so the first thing I'll need to do is locate the ale stands. -

Re: Valhalla 2008
Fri, April 11, 2008 - 12:42 AMThats simple enough, the first one is at the cross roads soon as you enter the faire, The second is at the other end of the Crossroads between the guilds areas and the food court.
