woops! I forgot to add - yes, her Majesty will be present each and every day of faire. She opens each day with a parade, introductions and then the opening of the pubs! (Huzzah!) There is another parade mid day, and she is present at all the jousts. She also shows up for the final Pub sing; and leads the exodus to the gates at close.

She *has* been known to stop by the archery booth for a friendly contest with members of her court; and I can tell you the lady is fearsome with a bow - even more so with an axe when she doth visit the "stupid hat" area near the axe throw.
