for a few years my group has been trying to get mermaids into our renfair. We were given a very small area/ closet where we could interact with no one. Children could not come near us due to the small space. the area was dark and terribly hot, yet still our popularity grew. So much so that we are given our own area this year but it has to come out of our own pocket. so we need help.

if you could donate or spread the word it would be greatly appreciated. If we cant succeed then we lose our section and the mermaids.

These are the best photos of our old section for reference.

I'm not in a financial place to do anything atm, not even participating in the secret santa etc, but I REALLY HOPE PEOPLE CAN CONTRIBUTE. Delilah is the person who brought me to this forum. She also made my first ever set of mermaid accessories, and was the first other mermaid I EVER found online to chat with. <3

I love these girls! I was supposed to work with them last year but I couldn't due to health. Please, if you can do anything, help out these lovely gals!

This May will be the first year for the Utah Renaissance Faire having mermaids, Koral, Thalassa and I pick up their "tank" (24' above ground swimming pool) on Saturday for it, Koral and our marketing director found the "tank" for our mermaids on KSL. I hope you guys are able to raise enough funds and more. I shared the link on Facebook for you guys, hope it helps out.

another way of donating can be if anyone has any space decorations, netting you bought but hate the color, extra shells that are too big to do anything with,stuff like that that we can decorate our area with would be appreciated

So, what kind of tank are you guys talking about? And I know the harbor area pretty well, so where are you planning on setting up the whole mermaid area?

Virginia is a bit far, we are looking for people near by who can work at the fair and work behind the scenes after fair
