| What
should you bring? |
You
will want to bring camping gear, bedding, flashlight(s), towels, water,
sleeping pad, tent (if desired), waterproof tarps, sunscreen, and bug
repellent. Be prepared for cold and damp nights (extra blankets, ground
cloths and warm clothes) and hot days (hats and sunscreen).
Bring kids and good energy, but do not bring pets (except for unicorns),
candles, or drugs. Costumes and banners will make things more beautiful
in our village. Bring along your musical instruments, especially drums.
Bring utensils, bowls, plates, cups, food, coolers, camp stove and something
to share at the pot-lucks, Friday and Saturday evening and Sunday breakfast.
Bring a canteen or water container and be sure to drink plenty of water
while there. Alcohol is permitted at the festival, but only at our camps,
dining area and in ritual space. Bring firewood. There will also be some
available at the Park Office, and in nearby Weott. |

This
is an informal "family reunion" type of event. Don't expect
a lot of formal ritual or scheduled events. We do, however, plan to have
several workshops (details to be released later...)...
The following is tentative and more or less a guideline of what might
happen more than what will. For all we know, the whole thing could evolve
into something completely different. Such is our nature after all. :) |
