Scarborough Renaissance Faire's Official Website .Scarborough Faire opened it's 22st season right before tax day and people obviously came out to enjoy some much needed relief. The crowds were good despite the thunderstorms and very muggy conditions on opening day.
Some of the changes this season include a newly formed comedy right here in the shire, radical changes with some of the stages and even a change or two with the ren faire community's beloved pipe act.
The previous description and all these wonderful images are brought to you by Frank Hui. Because of his devotion, I have nothing to add. --Robyn Sotherby
