New to the game, working on a build. I could use some insight.
OOG logistics, What time can we arrive? Can I pay day of? Is there cabin space?
Thanks, looking forward to this weekend!

I'm a Logistics Marshal named Conor!
1: I believe Summer Camp is still going on(though I may be in correct) If it is, 5pm is the time you can arrive. If not, anytime Friday.
2: You pay at Check- In which usually starts at 7ish and hoes until Lay-On at around 10.
3: Sleeping unless you are part of a group that reserves beds is a first come first serve basis.
Hope these answers helped.

Food is available on Saturday Morning, Afternoon, and Sunday Morning, usually sold by player characters (PCs) for in-game (IG) currency--Gold, or Silver Pieces--but some people also accept out-of-game (OOG) money, which we IG refer to as Baronial Notes. For instance, Charlie S., who plays Father Haroldson, usually sells sandwiches, and last event, I had some DIVINE macaroni and cheese and barbecue chicken wings, courtesy of Jason M. and Marie D., who play Caldor Eirson and Aella Eirson, respectively. (I highly recommend both options. ) No guarantee those will be what's being served next week, but just to give you an idea. Just head to the main building, the Dragon's Claw Inn, where lay-on happens, and follow the smell!
I think James, the Director of KR, actually said 5:30PM in general for earliest arrival time while the Summer Camp is still in session, but if that changes, you will get word of it, definitely. There are usually announcements like this made on the forums shortly before the event, and always on the Facebook group, located here: ( www.facebook.com/groups/28680341710/ ). Feel free to request to join, one of us will surely catch your request and welcome you aboard. I expect this be one of the last events, if not the last event, with a limit on earliest arrival time this year, but keep your ears up!
See you in a week! I'll be NPCing this event, so I'm bound to run into you at some point. Best of luck to you, opponent/comrade (depending on the role)! Welcome to Knight Realms.
Edit: Turns out I won't be making it up, but I absolutely look forward to seeing you if you come again!

Well, I hope I get to hang out with all three of you guys!
I'm Jeff, one of the New Player Marshals here. Welcome!
Check Out - wife will need to leave before event closing, can she check out early, or should i check her out later?
Yes. Talk to James when you check in and pay and you should be able to work something out.

Hi I'm John, a Safety Marshal and one of the general fonts of knowledge you may run into.
To answer all in one spot using some of the previous answers and elaborating on others-
Arrival Time is 1730. That is a inviolate time while Summer Day Camp is in session unless you are one of the handful of Minions doing pre-approved camp work. On NON CAMP months, that time gets far earlier.
Paying Day Of is usually done unless you have made arrangements prior and pre-paid (I believe there are a few who do) as the provision is still available. I would decidedly speak with the Director if you are looking to prepay.
Cabin Space is very much as Conor mentions, very first come first serve for the few non-regular spaces in the various cabins. That said, tenting is always a viable option- either in the Camp Tents or in a personal one.
Camp tents are in pretty much all the in-game lands (to include down over by Baronial Manor) and there usually is one or two not used (see Baronial Manor; they tend to be forgotten about) for whatever reasons.
Personal Tents are welcome and if you choose to go that route, I strongly suggest tenting within a land, the semi-wild area next to Ostcliff, or by perhaps by the Baronial Barracks building.... if only for support in case of being jumped by NPCs.
Camping off by yourself is ok too (our group does) but have a plan.
Food is available in the mornings and occasional afternoons for a nominal In Game cost of 3-5 Gold, equivalent value in gems, commodity cards or Baronial Notes (aka Dollar bills). Feast is included as part of the price of game so no worries there.
There are often people who bring food to share or sell- most common time for this is during Saturday Market Faire (11-1400 or so)
Check Out Checking out early is not a great issue- many do so and there are also many Day Trip players. If she needs to leave before noon on Sunday, I strongly suggest she speak with the Director about it, as everyone who stays is supposed to contribute to cleanup of some part of the Camp as assigned by either him, his designate or one of the Landed Lords (usually the former two options).
I hope this all spelled out and answered your questions a bit more completely. As always the Director (or someone designated by he) reserves the right to change my answers if they are wrong.
See y'all Friday!

I'll have to contact the appropriate people about leaving early, as I will probably be leaving on Saturday night.
Thanks again for all of your help so far!

No apologies necessary and since Dan's showed me some of those things you've been working on, I can totally vouch for them and I'm excited to see them in action!
