"Rainbow Family of Living Light
Word from Thanksgiving Council!

There is a holding camp in the Cherokee National
Forest for those who are interested in hanging around
for the nationals. Cherokee allows camping for 14
days then you have to move one mile, but do not have
to leave the forest.

From I-75 take the US 64-74 cutoff south of Cleveland
and go east to US 411. Take US411 North to state
highway 30---take a right. Go about 12 miles to
Forest Road 77 by the greasy creek sign, turn right.
Go 3.75 miles, staying to the left all the way up,
look for the standing men. Pass this message on. WE
LOVE YOU!

Visit AGR at Google for details, directions, and
planning information!"


I don't get the "Thanksgiving Council" part. Also looked on AGR for any more details, and could not find them, but here it is, for what its worth. Perhaps someone who lives near Cherokee NF could check it out, and let the rest of us know if this is real?

the national is a force that started the second clean up finished in California. There's holding camps everywhere. Energy in any form is great. Keep gathering! Of course, don't expect this will be even anywhere near the actual national gathering site, which won't start up until mid- June. Most people still do only come for the "big show". :) I love rumors though! Have followed a few to a cop campout though, so do be safe and careful, folks.
Loving you

Found the original of those dirrections: http://www.kindrideshare.net/ride-share/rainbow-rideshare.html

Still have not talked to anybody who was at Thanksgiving Council that recalls planning a holding camp in TN. This holding camp sounds like a good place to find all your favorite Itennerant Forest Drunks...

Looks beautiful...(waa, wanna go home!) The dead end ranger roads are worriesome. Heard that the drive-thru situation was hairy at some of the last few Nationals. Any word on other holding camps? Juju gets asked about directions & news when he's in town. Spring council is/was when & where?

[mungojelly]

wot tho holl is a "holding camp"?

listen if you've got nothing else to do until the nationals, there are some very nice regionals going on??

Holding Camp may or may not become seed camp. It's like a base camp while the scouts are checking things out.

Heard that L.H. is there and it might be wise to bring water with you. This holding camp may not be the safest space for little ones; but mind you, this info is all Rainbow rumor.
