space is limited, and signing up in advance also allows us to
communicate any important logistical details to you.

Other announcements:

- This weekend is the final weekend of the Maryland Renaissance
Festival. Stay tuned for details on our annual “Dust, Dent & Ding”
Sale, featuring discounted merchandise that comes back unsold from our
booth.
