Pyrates learned the Village Renaissance Fair exemplifies the best

On Sept 14 & 15, see why the VIllage Library of Wrightstown's 20th VIllage Renaissance Faire draws 9000 annually

Village Faire exemplifies the best Riches for All

What happens when a faire reaches new heights that one can surely see it from afar…well the Village Library f Wrightstown and its annual Village Renaissance Faire knows the answer….a few years back the faire achieved new heights a flying birds of prey show become part of its ongoing family and faire earned 9,000 returning visitors in one lone weekend…the faire has become a huge success as participants have become part of this charity faire for a cause that boasts entertainment that rivals commercial faires, at a price far less than a movie.

Pyrates love treasure, and that’s why they came, love, and have never left the Village Renaissance Faire, as it’s the treasure in the heart of Bucks County. The pyrates have heard of the success, the success of a faire that boasts aerialists, flying birds of prey, jousters, fire breathers, archers, living chess, trebuchet launching, live steele, petting zoos, pony rides, carriage rides, puppet shows, jugglers, dancers, singers, musicians and more. They have heard that shires from counties here and there are attracted to this grand faire. They have learned of the games of merriment and skill that include ratapult, throwing fits, castleplunk, chickenshot into a pot, Jacobs Ladder, thrown weapons, and fight a knight, and they want to test their skills reap the riches of the glorious bounty of the prize kingdom.

Just like the first faire, it started with a few who saw the value, and praised its greatness which have caused the wave of performers, merchants, attendees, and greatness. The one lone Capt. Jack Sparrow, grew into one ship, then two, and now three with a special port of call just for those on this family friendly, but still wildside.

Although they are welcome, as all are at our faire, they be seen from afar as crow nests designed to gain glorious views of the birds of flight, trebuchet launchings, and aerialists, will also be used to scan the crowds of thousands and protect them as pyrates are welcomed onto the grounds…as we know that our heart and soul, giving our time so others can give to our cause, the library, will never fail in the face of any challenge…so come see the battle and sure, glorious victor of chivalry, yet again this September.
