Unfortunately, our efforts to get insurance are not panning out, and I am not going to leave you all in suspense - I thought it better to cancel the event now, so you can rearrange your schedules.

The Good News (Yes, there is good news) is that having just got off the phone with one of the site owners, I am 99% certain we can have the site next year, and I am sure we will have coverage by then, because we are organizing our group as an NPO on an official level, and we are working with a few other groups to come up with an umbrella to cover Early -Era reenactment - more than just 15th century groups, as a means of doing what the big boys of the reenactment world have done, to get their policies.

So in a few days, I will post a "Retreat to Calais - II.V" to organise next years event. If you aare either a 15th century group, or an independant reenactor of the era, please consider yourself invited. I'll be making contacts with every group I am aware of in the US and Canada, to send out official invitations to the event. For the first time, I will also invite vendors as well, who are willing to vend period objects.

God willing, we will see you all at the Michaelmas event. Please keep everyone updated on the event on this board.
