Message and Update from the Mayor Pennsic 49

G'Day Everyone,

f

The year 2020 has been one that we will remember for the rest of our lives for many reasons. Some, because of loved ones we have lost, some because for the first time we have seen the world in turmoil and some because we have been unable to relax and do the things we would normally do. Whatever the reason is, we will get through this together.

It is not my job to interpret the reasons for everything that has happened in 2020, apart from my personal view that I can’t wait for 2020 to just sod off!!

But I digress, this short note is to keep you up to date with where we are for Pennsic 49 in 2021. In November, the Pennsic Staff group, the Coopers Management Group, and I had a joint physical and zoom meeting to discuss the way forward for Pennsic 49. The single message you need to transmit and the message you need to take from the meeting is that we are continuing to plan on having Pennsic 49 in July/Aug 2021 at Coopers Lake Campground.

The Pennsic Staff and Coopers Management are working jointly on plans to make Pennsic 49 as safe as it can possibly be for attendees. This will mean some changes to the way we do things, but we are committed to making those changes as seamless and simple as possible so that Pennsic 49 can happen and we can all have a great relaxing holiday and Pennsic War.

I want to thank you all for your support and most of all for your curtailing of the rumour mill, which I have to say has been nothing short of amazing. I will continue to be transparent in our planning and keep you informed so that any decisions we make will be understood and not a surprise to people.

As more things line up, I will update you all so that you can be kept informed and plan your Pennsic 49 journey to once again celebrate together in friendship and combat. Thanks again and please have a happy and safe Christmas and New year. Gregory of Lochswan Mayor Pennsic War 49

Entry/Re-entry into campground


    Medallions: The medallion you receive when you check in is your personal receipt and access pass into Pennsic. It is not transferable, and you should wear it at all times. (Wristband IDs are available for babies and young children.) When you leave the campground, please make sure you take your medallion with you; you will be asked to show it every time you reenter the campground.

    Note: the battlefields, archery range, and "B" camping blocks are outside of the main gates, and you will need to show your medallion to enter and return from those areas! Anyone attempting to enter the campground without a medallion will have to go through check-in again and pay the appropriate fees. Anyone attempting to reenter the campground by crossing or removing fences, or by transferring medallions shall be evicted from the site without refund.

    Vehicle passes: You will receive a permanent pass for your vehicle when you check-in. This should be hung from the rear-view mirror while you are on-site; staff members at the re-entry gate will ask to see it.

    (Note: remove the pass from your mirror when you leave the campsite, as police can ticket you for having a "windshield obstruction.")
