Camping: This event will again be held at Kearney Park in Fresno, California. This is a beautiful site with plenty of grassy areas and shade trees. There is a large battlefield with camping locations all around, not a bad camping spot anywhere! This is a public park and we will be locked in at night, however there will be a Hastings lock on the back gate for us. RV's are allowed in the parking lots, however, there are no RV hookups. Dogs are allowed and must be kept on leash at all times. Fires must be at least 12" off of the ground and water and a fire extinguisher should be kept nearby. This is an irrigated grassy site. Please keep tent stakes shorter than 9 inches.


Merchants: Merchants are welcome and are given prime camping space along the tree line with views of the battlefield. Merchant fee is $15.00 Paying the merchant fee and the site fee purchases entrance for one merchant and one assistant (total of 2 people). The contact for merchants is the Event Steward.

Site Fee: Entrance into the park is $5.00 per vehicle, which must be paid at the county booth at the time of entry into the park. The Site Fee is an additional $15.00 per person ($7.50 children 6-12) and no more than $45.00 per family. Non-members must pay an additional $5.00 surcharge. Make checks payable to SCA, Inc.,/Barony of Nordwache.


Directions: Make your best way to Fresno on State Hwy 41 or Hwy 99. Take the Jensen exit and head west on Jensen Ave. for approximately 3 miles. Turn right (north) on Marks, then left (west) another 3 miles on Kearney (Kearney is a palm tree lined road). The park entrance will be on your left. We are at a new site in the park. Towards the center of the park at Camphor Grove After 10 p.m follow the signs to the night entrance.
