This site has free garage parking. Please use the driveway on S. 3rd St to access the parking garage.
This is a dry site; no alcohol is allowed at this site, none at all, no flasks, wine, etc. If you are found to have alcohol with you at this site, you will be asked to leave the premises as it violates our contract. This is a new site for the SCA, and we want to make a good impression for future use. There will be a library staff member on-site for the whole event. You may bring sparkling water, sparkling non-alcoholic cider or juice for your personal consumption. Dinner is not until 5 pm so we recommend that you bring your own lunch or snacks. There are also many restaurants and a Red Apple Market within walking distance.
As always, we will have a dessert auction. This year's dessert auction beneficiary is yet to be determined. Bring your wonderful and tasty desserts for donation and let some lucky friends win it at auction! We do ask that, if you choose to bring a dessert to contribute to the auction, you write out a detailed list of ingredients to enter along with your dessert. This will ensure that those with food limitations will be able to choose accordingly.
The silent auction will also be held this year. Auction proceeds will go to the Raven Travel Fund. Please Contact the Silent Auction Coordinator Alana Von de Huga at Aquaterra.YAC@antir.org to donate. We will welcome donations for the silent auction the day of the event when you arrive on site, but donations can also be dropped off at the November business meeting or YAC practice, please contact the auction coordinator if you need to arrange a different drop off.
Event steward, Sarah Pixie can be reached at AQGoodYule2025@gmail.com with questions or if you would like to volunteer.
Registration Information
Pre-reg is now open (https://forms.gle/aUrXaXnFxrBiFats7) for members and their guests, only for site/feast combo tickets. Anyone who wishes to stay at the event after 5pm must have a feast ticket. Guests are not required to register with members.
We will do our best to accommodate common allergies that are noted on the registration form.
Receive a $10 discount on Adult feast tickets by pre-registering before 10/20. Pre-Reg closes at 10 pm on 11/20 or when feast tickets are sold out.
There is no pre-reg for site fees only/non feast tickets.
In an effort to keep event fees as low as possible we would like to give the populace the opportunity to donate their pre-reg discount back towards the event during their pre-registration. This allows us to keep the baseline feast ticket as low as possible while still budgeting for the event to break even. To thank those who are willing and able to donate their feast pre-reg discount back to the event, we will have name cards printed for them and any youth registered with them. Their name cards will be set together at a table holding their seats before the hall reopens for feast. Their names will be pre-printed on the seating chart. They may choose to move their seats if they wish.
