Tell me about food and everything else . . .

The logistics of providing food for every possible diet, as well as food prep issues is just not feasible or safe.

AND

Due to varied dietary needs and food contact issues, it's better if bring what you like and prep it.

What gear do I need?

The only specialized gear you need is Tent, Sleeping bag, Sleeping Pad (yoga mat). Everything else is household items you already have.

Special note: this is Tent camping. No RV. No Trailers. No giant campervans.

Can I park my car next to my tent?

Sniffing tires, oil, exhaust and fuel? Yuck!!! You cars will be close. But not on top of us. Cars on one side. Humans on the other. If we overflow our parking area . . . there is an overflow parking area.

Carpools?

Carpool info goes out ONLY to paid attendees. (it really sucks to set up a carpool with a person who is not actually going)
Carpool info ONLY goes out to those who fill out the ATTENDEES/CARPOOL FORM (this way it is reliable info)
Carpool info goes out all at once (not as you sign on)
Carpool info goes out 1 week before the event. Too early and most carpools fall apart. It really sucks when your ride canceled at asked for a refund a month ago but did not tell you. Carpools info sent when it is stable of who is attending.
Carpool in week before makes sense because that's when people can really determine schedule and departure time and availability.

Refunds?

If requested 2 weeks before event start: 100% refund.

If requested less than 2 weeks: 100% Full Credit be applied to ANY future event we run.
