Return of the Sun - USA,

Sadly we must announce that Ravensborg Viking Fort is ending.

The property is being sold in the near future, and the location will no longer be available for use. We would like to thank Sam and Suzie for all their work in building a place that drew people from around the world together and encourage everyone to respect their decisions in this regard. We would also like to thank everyone who contributed in all ways, large and small, to the success of Ravensborg and all the events that we have hosted over the years. If you have any concerns about personal property on-site, please contact us at Ravensborg.org. Stay tuned for future news about how we might gather and celebrate each other and how we will look forward to the next chapter. We have often said that Ravensborg is a family and this does not end, it only changes, as all things must. Sincerely,
The Ravensborg Thegns
