I am reminded, ruefully, of Twelfth Night 15 years ago, in the Hudson Valley, when we were told to expect a foot of snow on Friday night, and I had to change our plans to attend -- and all Carolingia with me.

Poor Crown. Poor Rosamund (autocrat). And poor four peerage candidates!

Poor cooks! Everything is probably already purchased.

Yeah - we're already making plans to eat the vigil food that won't keep.

I'm reminded of 12th night in 1983 or 1984 (memory is weak), in or near Amherst, when it took me 4-5 hours to drive there from NYC, then 4 hours to drive home to Newton, where I found 2 feet of snow in my driveway and discovered the hard way that if you park in a public lot after a snowstorm, the plow operators will mound all the snow in the lot over your car and leave a ticket underneath it all. As I recall, they ran out of food at the event, and were serving rather weak Cock-A-Leekie stew.

Yes, I feel for the peerage candidates, and the cooks who have put in oodles of work already.

Yes, its the cook who is in my thoughts the most just now. How to store as much of that food as possible, whew! I suppose at least they weren't cooking for 400, like the cook in Atlantia is for their 12th Night.

Not meaning to get all legal and everything but what about the contract with the school? Was there a cancellation clause? Does the local group have any recourse as to getting a portion of their site costs returned to them seeing as the school canceled on them?
