booths & Games
Tunes & Treats. Think musical chairs, but with live music and homemade sweets! Whoever is standing on the chosen number when the music stops gets to pick out a home-baked treat.
The Knight’s Quest. Test your strength and agility in a fun all-ages ropes course that includes a zip line, swing, and tight rope! When you complete the course, you’ll be knighted by a queen or king.
The Sleeping Giant
Find the courage to sneak up to the Sleeping Giant and dash away with his beloved hen without waking him! Bold souls who steal the hen will be rewarded with a golden egg!
The Mermaid Lagoon
You need patience to catch a fish in the magical mermaid lagoon. Once you do, bring your catch to the friendly mermaid or merman, and you’ll receive an enchanted gift from the sea.

After helping 15 indigenous women form a cooperative, they work together to create sustainable knits that are good for us and our planet. The women raise the alpaca, spin the wool into yarn and hand-knit the entire 100% alpaca collection. Designed in Tahoe. Homegrown and handmade above 14,000 ft. in the Andes.
Luke Garrison Woodwork
I turn wooden bowls, plates, platters, boxes, vases, spinning tops, and other round objects using salvaged trees that were once growing around the Bay Area. I work in my small workshop over by the seaplane landing site in Sausalito. It’s pretty nice to be able to see the whole process through — from a tree in a yard, to a slab, to a rough bowl blank, and after a year of curing and a whole lot of wood chips, see it turn into a beautiful salad bowl.
MEK Ceramics
My work is inspired by foggy days, saltwater sunrises and the scent of the redwoods. I create small batch collections and one-of-a-kind pieces in Mill Valley, CA. The mystery of the alchemical process between elements which occurs at 2000+ degrees Fahrenheit is something that never ceases to amaze me.
