Members of the high school Drama Club went down to to participate in Ren Fest last weekend. When asked what she thought of the trip, Junior Tatum Sander said, “I met so many people with similar interests to mine.” Events include to jousting, archery, performances, and other traditional Renaissance-themed activities. In addition to events, the festival has many stalls for food and craft vendors. If you enjoy the turkey legs, unicorns, and knights in armor, consider going to Ren Fest!
