There will be a "pot luck" approach to providing food, drinks, and snacks. This year's smaller, more exclusive event will be open to only about 20 people this year, so do not procrastinate in confirming your registration this year.
The registration form for the larger Tolkien Moot 2013 at Bozarth Mansion will be made available in the weeks leading up to the 2012 event, watch for the announcement. 2012 will not have any fees, but 2013 will have a pre-registration fee as well as attendance/event fee(s) for those who are not helping as volunteers, game masters, or special guests.
