Cost of the Event, Donations, Etc
People keep asking.. here is the answer!
There is a $2 fee to enter the park, this is a State fee to support the park. That is the only mandatory
fee. We recommend a $3 donation for each member of your adult family.
We do not charge an "Event Fee" for your attendance, nor do we charge our re-enactors to participate.
We do it for the love of the Genre, and because we get to have fun too. We do have a donation basket, where you can
leave a few bucks if you appreciate our efforts and are able. We do it this way because we have kids too, and understand
what an impediment it is to pay outrageous fees when you have a bunch of children! This way even the cheaper by the
dozen crowd can come and enjoy a quality day of fun and education.
That said, we are spending about $1500 to do the event this year (estimated), so if you can contribute,
we greatly appreciate it. All donations are directly used to cover Castra this year, and pay for next year (if we have
any left over). Obviously that does not include the cost of armor and tents and such, just the park fees, rentals, incidentals,
etc etc etc.
So come on out, enjoy yourself, bask in the glory that was Rome. If you are able, drop a few bucks,
buy a souvenier (nice stuff... no cheap plastic junk at Castra!!), eat lunch, and learn something new!
We will see you under the Eagle!
