The waivre is a bit less comprehensive than that.  It is essentially a document that
acknowledges by your signature that you recognize that participation in the event
could pose a danger to yourself and your property.  You further agree that any
litigation resulting from such occurrences will first be subject to an arbitration 
procedure under the laws of the state of California before it hits the courts.
Of course any and all of the foregoing is worth only the opinion of the Judge who 
rules on it and the calibre of the legal eagles you hire to assert your case.  It 
mitigates (lessens) the obligation that the SCA has toward you as an invited guest.

Pre-reg and land reservation ended 31 January, 04.  Entry at the door is cash in 
hand (i.e. no cheques...) and space available for camping (usually groups who 
reserve blocks of land have already given their numbers for the blocks by the end of 
pre-reg).


The only requirements to attend (in respect to historical reenactment) are a 
reasonable attempt at pre 17th century costume and a further willingness to
obey the applicable real-world laws and site regulations.
