EVENT DETAILS:

Hear ye, hear ye! A Winter's Knight...Cedarburg's 35th Annual Winter Festival, February 7 & 8, 2009 celebrates the lords and ladies, the knights and damsels, the dragons and soothsayers, the fools and fool'ettes for a Medieval Winter Festival.

Join us in the Kingdom of Cedarburg for the mighty contests: Ice Carving, Bed Racing, Chili Cooking, Barrel Racing and hunting for the Holy Grail, hidden in eggshells under the snow.

If you desire to partake of grog and grub and assorted malty happy brews among the grownups in the drafty castle and have a mind for a bit of gaming, come to the Cool Brew on Saturday night. Or sample the particularly comely wines from Cedar Creek Winery. However, if you awaken with a large and tender head, feed it with pancakes at the Pancake Breakfast.

Many sporting activities will make you shout Huzzah! Enjoy softball in the snow, big dogs pulling weighted sleds, hayrides, the royal Lion's Club golf tourney in the park and the pageantry of the Winter Festival Medieval Parade on Saturday afternoon.

Enchanted fun for families. Great food abounds and wine and beer will flow like honey mead.

Grab thou fellow knights and damsels and forge on to Historic Cedarburg, it's but 20 minutes north of the (slightly larger) kingdom of Milwaukee on ye olde Interstate 43. 888-894-4001 or www.cedarburgfestivals.org
