RENAISSANCE-PERIOD FAIR PLANNED FOR FREDERICKSBURG

Renaissance Entertainment Corp. said it will build an entertainment complex in Stafford County, near Fredericksburg, that will employ as many as 500 part-time workers.

The company will spend more than $3 million to develop a 240-acre site.

The complex, to open in spring 1996, will feature various Renaissance-period events and artists and craftspeople who recreate the period. The company has other such fairs in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Kenosha, Wis. (Staff) by CNB
