Planning A Roman Weekend
#1
Greetings!!

Well, I have a basic "go ahead" for setting up a Roman event here in Missouri. At the historic site of the Nathan (Daniel) Boone homesite, there is a large bowl shaped water catch basin. When I was there in February builing log cabins, my brother and I found it and I immediately thought Frontier Amphetheatre. The director said I should have no problem getting approval from Lindenwood University, which owns the site.

My partner and I are looking at some gladitorial bouts, and I am wanting to speak with some of the schools in the area and see if there are any latin clubs that would be interested in assisting.

I ask for any tips on static and other types of displays, we are looking at a possible Roman camp as well, I have a large wall tent. Tentatively scheduled for Sept 7, 8, 9th, so if anyone is interested I will post more as we progress.

Any input is welcome!!

Respectfully,

Very nice Wes. It would be even better if I lived anywhere near there. I'm having enough problems just trying to make Roman Days or I would consider it. I'll make it back to the Midwest someday though. Best of luck with the event and I'll give you a laude.

I've moved this to the events section, where I think it will draw more attention.
