Accessibility Information
Accessibility Information for Egil’s Tourney 2024
Egil’s Tourney takes place at Lynx Hollow Park, a primitive park. We’ve done our best to make things as accessible as possible for everyone attending.
The flattest, smoothest paths through the site will be marked out with flags, for ease of mobility, including wheelchairs, scooters, walkers, etc.
On the map in the site booklet, the road from gate, by areas B, C, and G will take you to the main activity area. A video of an electric cart/scooter navigating this route is available at egilstourneysca.org.
The Egil’s staff, in concert with the park authorities, have made two sets of stairs with railings to help navigate the slopes. These are sturdy wood and gravel stairs, with sturdy metal rails.
There will be an area for mobility-impaired RV campers near Gate. Space in this lot is limited, so please let us know ahead of time if you need to be assigned there. Let us know through the Castrorum “Comments” when you pre-register, and/or by contacting the event Email address: egils@antir.org .(There are no RV hookups at Lynx Hollow Park.)
All other RVs will be asked to park in the parking lot.
A generator is available for recharging scooters / wheelchair/ CPAP batteries, by prearrangement. The last day to request generator access is Monday, May 20.
Please contact egils@antir.org to preregister. Put “Generator Access” in the subject line. The generator will only be available by pre-arrangement, and volunteers will be needed to sit with the generator during its use.
Generator use is free, though donations toward fuel will be gratefully accepted from the populace so inclined. Please note: the generator is reserved for scooters / wheelchairs / and CPAP machines. It is not available to charge phones, tablets, laptops, and similar personal devices.
The bathrooms at Egil’s are porta-potties. There are 4 accessible porta-potties: one near the entry to the archery range, two by merchants’ row, and one at the Y at the east end of the Great Meadow.
There is limited parking available for handicapped and mobility-impaired attendees. When you pre-register in the Castrorum system, be sure to request handicapped or limited mobility parking in the “Comments” section.
Also you may contact the event at egils@antir.org by May 17th if you need handicap parking. Please bring your placard if you have one.
The vehicle parking area is separate from the main event area. There is a volunteer service to bring people parking in the limited mobility area of the parking field back to their encampments after they have unpacked, and to take these same people to their vehicles when it’s time to pack up. Enquire at Gate when you arrive on site. This service is available only to people with handicapped or limited mobility parking passes.
For those who are sensitive to noise, including animals, there is a clay target shooting range close enough to the park to be heard. If you’ve been to Egil’s in the past few years, you have experienced it – it’s been running for a while. The range hours are 10 AM to 4 PM on Saturday and Sunday.
There will be some generator noise during the day, and possibly more in the evening, as we expect at least 19 RVs on the site. They are parked to minimize the impact on the camping areas.
Again, if you have any questions or concerns, please email the event at egils@antir.org . We strive to answer within 24 hours, and usually answer within 12.
