    GATHERING CONSCIOUSNESS

    Please protect this Beautiful Land.

    ~ Walk Softly. Harm no living thing Harmonize - Blend in. Use only down, dead wood. Cut no living trees. Preserve the Meadows…camp in the Woods. We are caretakers of this land.
    Everyone sharing makes a strong Human Tribe!

    ~ Please Protect the Water Sources by staying out of DELICATE spring areas. Avoid camping, peeing, washing above spring areas. Keep ALL soap out of streams, springs or the creek!
    Use a bucket to take your bath at least 100 feet away from the water source.
    To be certain drinking water is safe: boil it!

    ~ Use the slit trenches or covered latrines - cover your paper & waste with ashes or lime, wash hands after. Break the fly/illness connection: shit-fly-food-you!
    Dig no shitters near water areas or kitchens.
    Protect our Health!

    ~ Use your own cup, bowl & spoon! Wash them after eating and rinse in bleach-water. Visit if you feel ill - especially if you have a contagious disease - or are injured.

    ~ Camp Together – Establish neighborhoods.
    Community Fires only!
    ** Each with 5 gallon bucket with water and shovel for Fire Protection.
    If you are the last to leave a fire PUT IT OUT!
    Please, NO Fireworks!

    ~ Watch your gear: Be Responsible
    "Tempt Not Lest Ye Be Lifted From."

    ~ Pets are discouraged but if you must bring them keep them fed, on a leash and out of the kitchens, springs, fights & packing up to chase and kill wildlife. Clean up their poop. Love them.

    PACK IT IN - PACK IT OUT !!!
    ~ Cleanup begins when you arrive. Bring in only what is necessary. There is no janitor here…you are the cleanup crew. Separate garbage for recycling. Please don't litter. Compost in pits only.

    ~ You are the Gathering! Participate in Shanti Sena (the peace keepers council), activities,
    councils, work crews, workshops. Volunteer wherever needed: kitchens, welcome home,
    firewatch, parking lot, shitter digging, supply, front gate, etc.

    R-E-S-P-E-C-T your Sisters & Brothers energies.
    Keep the Balance: Earth, Sky, Trees, Water & People!

    ~ Alcohol is Discouraged, Weapons are Inappropriate,
    Violence is contrary to the Spirit of the Gathering.
    Please take no photographs or videos of people without permission.
    Discourage Drug Abuse.

    ~ Buying and selling endangers our legal right to be here. The Magic Hat is our Bank, donate early to fund our needs. The Magic Hat goes around at meal time circles and with the Magic Hat band.
    Our power together is many times our power separated!

    ~ Enjoy the Rainbow with an open heart and you Will see the Vision.

    ~ Join us for July 4th Silent Contemplation & Prayer for Peace,
    respect those maintaining silence from dawn.

    ~ Hold the silence until the arrival of the Children's Parade.

    RAP 701
    HAPPY TRAILS

    ~ In preparation for leaving…Pack up all your trash/recyclables and take it away.
    Take it far away. Do not impact the small towns near the gathering.
    If you can't take it with you drop it in the collection area.

    ~ Dismantle and disappear your encampment. Pick up your litter.
    If you don't someone else will have to. Vanish traces.
    Douse your fire, ashes cold, scatter your fire rocks. Replace turf.

    ~ Fill in your local latrine and compost holes solidly with lime and soil.
    Latrine tops are burned. Remove string and twine from tree limbs.
    Break up hardened ground with shovels or picks for future root growth and moisture catch.
    Intermix humus from forest ground if possible.

    ~ NATURALIZE! When an area is clear and clean scatter logs, branches, leaves to
    look natural. Disappear trails, renew forest habitat. Water systems are removed,
    cleaned and stored for next year.

    ~ Help with disabled vehicles, fully dismantle ramps and bridges.
    Water bar steep places to prevent erosion.
    The final crew re-seeds with appropriate vegetation to complete the process.

    ~ Transport as many riders as possible out of the area. Treat local folks with great kindness.

    ~ Drive safely and share this love wherever you go.

    i dont think the "or wait a few days" disclaimer will make any difference, if the road has snow on it and is a bit messy today,,warmer weather isnt going to make any difference especially with the increased traffic..
    id say be prepared,,for a big mess getting there..
    yall have fun..
