Fall Is traditionally the season
for fun and frolic before we must
pull out our winter woolens and
sit down in front of a fire for sev
eral months.
One of the best of the fairs and
festivals in the region is the Re
naissance Festival of Kansas City,
which is a mere stone's throw
away in Bonner SpringsKan. The
festival began Sept. 1 and will
continue every weekend from 10
a.m. to 6:30 p.m. until Oct. 7.
This is the eighth season for the
festival, which realist ically depicts
life in a lGth century English vil
lage during harvest. The festival
is sponsored by the Kansas City
Art Institute.
Several Lincoln residents par
ticipated in the festival. Peter

Nicholaus, a former Lincoln resi

primarily a Juggler and a tight
rope walker, but he chose a dif

festival. Going under the alias of
Rigor Mortus, he and his "brother,"
Tortoise Mortus, bury each other
alive and are dug out a few hours

McCullough said when the fes

of old lumber and materials. She

val has a 10-ycar lease on the
current property site, so many
shop owners are expanding and
improving their stores. Some are
even adding second floors, Mc
Cullough said. The buildings stay
up all year, and minor repairs are
made before the festival starts.
McCullough said that although
many of the participants stay in
the Kansas City area during the
five weeks, she drives home every
weekend to replenish her supply
of stuffed dragons, stars, unicorns
and rainbows. She said she never
knows what the big seller will be
for a specific weekend. The favor
ites tend to be the realistic drag
ons, which come in several colors
with their chests and wings in a
shiny material that appears scaly.
McCullough also has sokTher
sculptures at the University Place
Art Center and has helped put on
mini-renaissance festivals at Pres
cott Elementary School where
she would make her dragons in
front of the children, so they
could see how she makes them.
She hopes to do more of these in
the future.

adults, $6.75 for students), the
Festival is worth the price. The
days are filled with free song and
dance, traveling comedians,
Shakespearean theater and jug
glers galore. It also is interesting
to go into the shops and see area
artists and craftsmen. Prices for
the items for sale (anything and
everything) are reasonable. Those
items include wood carvings,
wreaths, goblets, mugs and much
more.
There is so much to see and do
that'one day at the festival may
not be enough. Wandering nom
ads and wenches are bound to
come up to the unsuspecting and
ask about where people are from,
how far away from London they
are, or how they would like a roll
in the hay. One also could be
pulled into an act at any time or
participate in games such as Slay
the Dragon, Drench a Wench or
ride on Stoney the Elephant.
One needn't go hungry amid
feasts of giant turkey drumsticks,
tempura, shish kebob.s, huge
pretzels, King's ices (an orange or
lemon half topped with frozen
sherbet) and nearly anything else
a stomach could desire.
