Land Registration closed Friday, September 26

General Information

• Requests for land will only be accepted from groups of 10 or more [adult] persons and you must use the links listed on this page to register for allocation
• Pre-registration is not required but it is encouraged as it will save you money and can increase the amount of land your group is allocated
• Land will be allocated based upon the level of your registration
• Those paying full price will receive areas of 250 square feet per person, those paying the Youth price will receive areas of 125 square feet (children for which no fees are paid, will receive no land allocation)
• Geopolitical groups will get preferential treatment
• After Geopolitical groups, Land Allocation sites for household groups are first come, first served
• Check with the Events co-Stewards: Baronesse Cara Michelle duValier and Sir Gavin MacDhominhull, stewardscaid-gww.org, for volunteer opportunities to improve your land allocation status
• Groups are asked to decide upon a single, central point of contact that is empowered to speak for the group

Land Allocation Rules

The rules are as follows:

1. Land allocation is for groups of 10 or more and is NOT tied to pre-registration. Conversely, signing up for land allocation does not mean you have pre-registered for the War.
2. To make the land allocation process work more smoothly, each group must designate one person to be the contact person for their group. That person must be pre-registered and be able to speak for the group. We will need their modern and SCA names, phone number, and e-mail address. The contact person for your group must enroll the group in the land allocation process, but individuals are responsible for registering themselves.
3. Just because you have pre-registered for the war does not mean that you will automatically have land allocated for you. Once your group has been enrolled in the land allocation process, individual members of the group must then sign up to stay with the group. This will automatically send an e-mail to the contact person, indicating your desire to camp with the group. The group contact person can then notify the Land Deputy if there is an issue.
4. Land will be allocated to groups only for those people who sign up to stay with that group. If you are a large group, you will want to have as many people as possible in your group participate in land allocation. If you have a group of 50 and only 10 sign up to stay with the group through Land Allocation, you will only receive an allocation for 10 people. It will be a very tight squeeze.
5. RV spaces: Our use area of the park will NOT include any full hook up sites for RV campers. We can only provide dry camping spaces (no water, electricity, or sewer) in a paved or dirt lot. Dry RV sites can be reserved through the normal Pre-Registration process. Dry RV campers will be allowed to use the dump station at the full hook up site (approximately 1 mile from the Dry lot). If you require full RV hook ups you must contact Buena Vista Reservations directly at (661) 868-7050 or visit their web site at http://www.co.kern.ca.us/parks/ to make a private reservation. This reservation WILL NOT include Great Western War site fees. Spaces are limited. The full hook up area at Buena Vista is approximately one and a half miles away from the war site via a park road. No transportation will be provided between the full hook up area and the war site.
6. There will be areas set aside for open camping, these will be marked Overflow. These areas will not be allotted for any group. If you are camping with a group of less than 10 adults, this is where you will be sent. Please check with your local Geopolitical group (Barony, Shire, Canton, College, etc.) if you want to camp in Allocated lands.
7. A map with Allocations will be available on site at Headquarters and at the front gate. Locations will not be published or provided beforehand.
8. Land Allocation closed Friday, September 26, 2008.
9. Reservations for land allocation will remain in effect until 6 PM Friday October 10, 2008. If no one from your group has arrived by then, your group loses its allocation.
10. Negotiation with your neighbors is encouraged and any unallocated land (NOT including Overflow) is considered shared by whoever borders it. Please, only take what you need. Knowing the gentility of the members of the Society, it is expected that all groups are willing to work with their neighbors to come to reasonable, agreeable conclusions when land disputes arise.
11. Any groups found to be moving boundary markers or signs, or attempting to set up camp in a site allocated to a different group will lose their allocation and be subject to removal from site with no refund.
