Soooo disappointed in the town of Winchendon!! 

Last year my friends poured their blood, sweat, & tears into creating an amazing renaissance faire in their town. They put countless hours into planning, organizing, & executing this event. Called on so many people in their community to volunteer their time & resources with the promise of it paying off in the long run with future events. 

Well, this year they’ve been cut out completely. If you attended this event last year, don’t expect it to be nearly as good this year. The town decided to choose more money over quality, community, & morals.

Update: Instead of taking into consideration the hundreds of people who have voiced concern about this, the Winchendon Parks & Recreation Commission page is now blocking anyone who mentions it. 🙃

Update #2: Apparently the man won the bid & will be organizing this event is a known s.x..l predator & has a history of stealing money from events he hosts. Winchendon has been informed. Hopefully they reconsider.
