Dear Retail and Craft Traders:
On October 19th and 20th Holy Cross Episcopal Church in Simpsonville, South Carolina willl present its Tenth (10th) Annual Medieval Festival Tournament of the Holy Cross.

The Tournament offers all ages a fun-filled visit to the Medieval Age with jousting, sword exhibitions, games, lots of great food, and shopping with crafters and merchandisers.
We would like you to join us to display, demonstrate, or sell your crafts and/orr merchandise. This year we expect attendance to exceed 2,500. Our festival provides an excellent opportunity for you to promote your business while having fun! See what other merchandisers say:
