We're partying in the shire, lads & lassies! Don your best hobbit/elvish/dwarven/ranger/wizard attire and join us in the Hall of Zane the Grey for a morning of merriment before our film screening. Participate in games of skill and cunning, craft your own elven bracelet inscribed with your Name of Power, hear music and learn dances from Hobbiton and Rivendell alike, plus a costume contest! But what is a hobbit party without feasting? From 12-1, bring your blanket and second breakfasts (or "elevenskies," or even luncheons) and join us on the green for a picnic with hobbits! Music, games, more dancing, and fun abound! But be sure to return to the Hall of Zane the Grey by 1 p.m. for the film! All ages are welcome! Since this is a family event, please leave the armory in the keep. Violators will be eaten by the dragon.
