Where the Gathering will be in 2004
This year the North American Rainbow Gathering (hence referred to as the
Gathering) will be California from July 1 - July 7, near the town of Madeline.
Directions
From Madeline, go east on Blue Lake road to Patterson-Sawmill road (Long Valley road) follow signs to Patterson Meadow, continue eastward to Homestead Meadow (parking area). Welcome Home!!! There is also a suggestion to avoid county Rd 64, which is loaded with logging trucks, and could be accident prone. The current weather at Bear Camp Flat is very cold and raining mixed with snow. Please, anyone considering coming home at this time, be prepared, good shelter, warm clothes and adequate foot wear.
Spring Council is asking all kitchens to bring at least 200' feet of black 3/4 inch hose line. Hawker is recommending 500' of 3/4 black pipe, one 3/4 to 3/4 splice, 1 3/4 barb to 1/2 inch female NPT fitting and one 1/2 female faucet and hose clamps.Also helpful to tap the spring is a 2 1/2 g bucket with a 1g coffee can inside and a bunch of cheese-cloth and/or plastic screening. Also needed are plenty of 55g and larger food grade water containers with spigots on the bottom. Pictures of the kind of line needed can be found at
Black Pipe Example Additional information on the water system used to purify water for this year is
here. Clean water helps keep us all healthy! A
PayPal account has been opened by Hawker to help cover the cost of the filters, and other expensive parts that need replacement every year.
Ignore all rumors of cancellation or organization! Live Lightly with the Land and People!
