Pre-Registration for Equinox will open on July 15th
Pre-reg pricing:
• Kids Ages 10 & Under: Free
• Ages 11-15: $5.00 per person
• Ages 16 & Over: $15.00* per person

If you want a specific cabin, there will be a lottery on the 22nd. You must have pre-reg’d for your cabin and PAID by that date. After the 22nd cabins will be given away on a first come, first serve basis.
Send in your money for the cabin and your top 3 cabin choices. To reserve a cabin, it must be paid for 100% of its occupancy, except a 10 man which may be paid for 7 people occupancy. Along with this information please include your contact information (character name, real name, address, email, and phone.) If you are paying for others too, include their names (Character name and real name)
Finally, please add any special instructions

• 2 man cabin must have - $30.00 down with 2 names attached to the cabin
• 4 man cabin must have - $60.00 down with 4 names attached to the cabin
• 10man cabins must have - $105.00 down with 7 names attached to the cabin
Pre-registration through paypal will be through our Meetup.com site at http://www.meetup.com/durdemarion
If you pay via Pay-Pal, there is an additional $2 fee for the service (ie: 2 man cabin is $32, 10 man cabin is $107)
Send your check with a self addressed stamped envelope (for your receipt) (No Cash by mail) to:
Angelina Pusateri
1220 McChesney Ave
Nashville TN, 37216

On the day of the lottery the Secretary of the realm (Mefit) and myself will give each person a number and will place your number in a hat. We will pull out names and assign cabins. Cabins that are taken will be updated on the Belegarth, Facebook, and Meetup pages.
Other important information:
•It doesn't cost any more money to stay in a cabin, or less money to tent.

•There is a$2 extra processing fee for online payments.

•The cabins all have wood floors, electricity, but no heat. The ones with bunks have mattresses with plastic covers. Some of them have fire places (check the map to find out). A picture of the map will be up on the Facebook page and the Meetup page.

•In order to give the out-of-towners a chance at the popular cabins, cabin preference will be awarded by lottery the first day reservations are taken. So mail yours in before that date.

•If you do not reserve a cabin, come to the event prepared to tent.

•You are responsible for your cabin. Any missing mattress will cost you $100. Damage to the screens will cost you a minimum of $50. If there is damage to your cabin, you will be notified by the event coordinators and will not be allowed back to the event site until the fee has been paid.

•Upon leaving: You MUST sweep out your cabin, place your mattresses back how you found them and shut and LOCK all windows. Event coordinators will mop your cabin for you. PLEASE BRING A BROOM.

•Each cabin must assign themselves a clean-up captain. This person does not leave the park until an event coordinator has cleared their cabin.

•If you leave your cabin a hot mess you will not be allowed to reserve a cabin at your next Tennessee event.

We will be having a "Bardic Blast" type event on either Friday or Saturday night for all those who would consider themselves to be "bardic" in any way. We would like to emphasize that all types and genres of performing arts are welcome and encouraged at this event. There will be a competition and live performers. Please bring all classical / medieval / world instruments as there will be a jam session for all musicians on the night of the show. Also, if anyone has a well tuned upright piano (or a grand??) we would love to put one in the feast hall for the duration of the event and have live piano music during feast.

From high upon the battlments, I can see the armies approaching. From the North I can see the armor of the Knights of Numenor. From the far West I can see the never ending armies of the Uruk Hai. To the South the militias from the Southern Marshes are gathering. To the East I see the armies of Dur Demarion, ready to defend the Twilight Citadel from them all!!

The Equinox is coming....

Where will you be when the war begins?

Hey I was asked if I wanted to do Friday feast for EQ, whoever is in charge of feasts, I need to know if I am doing this and what the budget is. I was thinking Pasta, meatballs, red or white sauce, salad, garlic bread, lemonade. For the Vegetarians only- I would have broccoli, carrots and cauliflower to go on their pasta.

Get a hold of me on Face book ok?

Thank you

Banner wars is a game where competing teams attempt to capture and hold the banners of enemy teams. You use herald approved weapons (no missile weapons) to slay the enemy team and return to your camp with their banner. Or you use guile/ stealth to steal the enemy banner and bring it to your camp. Banner wars happens primarily at night so be careful where you step (flash lights are not to be used to blind the enemy).

Here are some of the rules.
Your banner must be displayed in a visible easy to access area

Dont make it hard to retrive the banner use rope or something else easily undone to secure your banner (protect your banner with force of arms not with a pad lock).

You may not put your banner within 20 feet of a fire.

When you are hit with a weapon you are dead and cannot engage the enemy or touch a banner. If you have a banner and you are killed you must drop it.

You may not steal a banner if yours is not in your possesion.

If you are killed in banner wars you may return to your tent/cabin and count to 30 then you respawn.

You may burn down the enemys tents/cabins by applying a piece of orange tape above or on the door, you may not do this if you have been killed. DO NOT ENTER someone elses tent/cabin without permission of the owner, doing so will disqualify you from banner wars and may incour more penalties.

Tents or cabins that have been burned will respawn at 9 am the next morning.You may not respawn if your tent/cabin was burned down. You may not burn a tent/cabin outside of the banner wars schedueled times.

The team at the end of banner wars with the most banners wins.The winning team will be announced at saturday night feast. Have fun and be safe" - Shiro

Hey people goin to EQ: I'm gonna be in NashVegas the Thur of EQ on business, and I'm gonna just spend the night at EQ!

However, because I'm on business, I only get to be there Thursday, and I can't really do the tent thing.

Did anyone Pre-reg and get a bunk, but they're not getting there till Friday? I'll be out by 10 at the latest and I'll leave it clean.

If you're going to EQ check out Dur-Demarion's Facebook page. Adult and minor waiver forms are up for you to print and bring with you to Troll for a faster check-in. There is also a printable itinerary posted with Banner Wars rules attached as well.

Friday night feast is being hosted by Lady Feri and I'm hearing lots of good stuff from her about delicious pasta! We all know anything by Lady Feri is bound to be sinfully delicious!

Saturday feast is hosted by Bladestorm and they will be serving up Brisket, chicken, mashed potatoes, cheese, bread, fruit, green beans, vegetarian chili and also a vegan option. I'm sure I forgot something but this feast is going to rock!

We can't wait to see everyone soon!

Hey, thank for having us out there, it was a great event.

By chance, was a greenish-band watch found? Its a simple thing, a Timex, but it's a heart rate monitor model, and I think I left it out there in Tennessee.
