Medieval Faire in Putney on Oct. 12

Annual tradition benefits The Grammar School

PUTNEY — The Grammar School in Putney is transforming anew into a 14th century Old English-inspired village on Saturday, Oct. 12, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., as it celebrates 25 years of its annual Medieval Faire.

The event, a fundraiser for the K-8 Grammar School Student Scholarship Fund, includes games, food, live music and vendors, all presided over by King Arthur and his royal court. Come one, come all, and feel free to dress the part.

Organizers say most activities will be geared toward children and families.

Traditional highlights of the festivities are returning: a climbing wall, haunted dungeon, archery, a dragon piñata, appearances by Merlin the Wizard and King Arthur, a dunking booth, and other exciting carnival activities.

Admission is free for all ages, and all-day passes are available for games and rides.
