Thursday, August 12th, 1976
- The site of the event is a private section of land connected to Tillamook State Forest about two hours from Portland.
- Rose, Shirley, and Isaiah all show up early on Thursday to help set up the event site.
- Matthew is also there early, getting his shop set up and ready to go.
- Lucas arrives with his gaming group, who set up a circle of tents and a pavilion while Lucas sulks at being "forced" to be out in nature.
- Carol and Nancy arrive that afternoon. Nancy shows up with a mass of pink chiffon that she reveals is her "princess dress" for the event.
- They see Matthew, and then Rose, who greets them and helps them get set up and sorted in their camping spot.
- On their way, they also see Lucas and his gaming group, and Nancy falls in love with their "King Arthur tent" (the pavilion). She also marvels at the garb everyone has, and the stands with actual armor out from of their tents.
- Rose then puts together an outfit from bits and pieces borrowed from here and there for Carol, who seems surly about wearing the weird clothing. Nancy convinces her, however.
- Setup completed, the encampment settles in for some food and a little booze, but nothing too crazy, as the event opens tomorrow.
Friday, August 13th, 1976
- Event starts.
- Matthew sees Aaron browsing the goods, and he seems a little embarrassed, basically leaves quickly.
