Solstice Beach Party at Kits Beach

This is our annual meetup on the beach to celebrate Solstice. Celebrating Solstice means enjoying the daylight and watching the sun go down circa 9:30. This year we're postponing our beach party until a few weeks after Solstice, so it is after FIFA has finished, as the beach is predicted to be even more crowded than usual during the World Cup.

Bring your own towel or blanket to sit on. If you want others to sit with you, bring a sheet or something.

Also, please bring some vegan snacks to share, such as strawberries, blueberries, pizza, popcorn, chips etc.

Volunteer greeters are needed, so contact us if you are interested.

We're not meeting AT the Boathouse restaurant. We will be directly in front of the restaurant but very close to the water not the restaurant. All attempts to have signs over the years have resulted in the signs blowing over. You will find us by walking along the water's edge NOT by walking along the path beside the restaurant.

Here's a map of approximately where we'll be: https://goo.gl/maps/jzTtiQqNZdBYrxJ1A

Summer solstice is the longest day of the year because the length of time between sunrise and sunset on that day is the yearly maximum. Daylight on Solstice this year will last 16 hours and 15 minutes.

P.S. Let us know if you are going to arrive late but it's best to arrive early. Please arrive before 7:15.

Please bring a guitar if you know how to play and want to sing together. Please don't bring an electronic sound system.

NB. In the case of any rain that day, the event will be postponed to Sunday. Please note: If it is sunny at 6:00 but the sand is wet from rain earlier, the event is still postponed.
