To mark the ending of summer, the Silver Lake Community Group are hosting a funfair. The theme? A Midsummer Night’s Dream! It will feature all your favorite and typical attractions including a merry-go-round, helter skelter, and funhouse mirrors. Best of all, attendance is free.

The centerpiece of the event will be an outdoor performance and dining experience centered around ... you guessed it, A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Residents are advised to book the show ahead of time not to be disappointed! Tickets are $85 per person, but they will be well worth the price: in addition to a four course meal and endless desserts (yes, endless), you will be treated to an interactive, magical performance of Shakespeare’s finest comedy!

EVENT: A Midsummer Night’s Faire WHEN: The last weekend of August WHERE: Silver Lake Meadows

OOC event dates: Tuesday 25 - Monday 31 August, 2020.

* Stay tuned for further details coming on the 25th, and remember, dressing up in period garb is not necessary, but we’d love to see you do it! Dress up as characters from the play, don fairy wings or a donkey tail, the more the merrier.

We hope to see you there!
