I live in Detroit with little money and no transportation, money situation will change soon as I am soon getting hired. And these gatherings sounds like something I would enjoy as city life can get depressing once in awhile with all the hate I see from day to day. Just wondering where the closest rainbow gathering would be, and maybe I could work out something to find my way there. Any info whatsoever would be extremely helpful and I would be extremely grateful, thanks.
I found a michigan rainbow site, which makes me very happy . And on it there's a Great Lakes Chat link that takes me to a yahoo group, not being familar with yahoo groups I guess my question would be as following. How do I become a member or said yahoo group?
It aint me...It aint me, I aint no senators son no..... It aint me, It aint me, I aint no fortunate one...no I was just at the Michigan Regional with some of my friends here in Saugatuck/Fennville area, it was north of Gaylord about 23 miles....or so...... We are going to be heading toward the Ocala Regional Rainbow Gathering about the 1st of February, and plan on setting up the Faerie-Krsna Cafe. We will be there for set up and the first week and a half of the gathering, but we are going to bail mid week and hit New Orleans before coming back to Michigan We are also going to Colorado......In late May......and make a few stops along the way, picking up riders, and looking around for future whitelighters.....HA HA Welcome Home....Change your name! How about "Squash" I wish someone named me squash.....Have a nice day *Boomer
Picking up riders eh....maybe we need to talk about this late may gathering, that is unless detroit isn't one of those stops, and the traffic does suck 'round here. And don't worry, I am an ax murderer, I just can't seem to find me ax. I would be eternally grateful as the more I read of rainbow the more I want to be a part of it, and I should have plenty of gas money by then, I wouldn't mind the Ocala gathering but I'm not sure how I'll be finacially by then and if I'll get that much time off work having just started. And no I can't my name it's got sentimental value or some such thing.
ALSO: Check out the Rideboard....There are sisters and brothers near Detroit that might be easier to get to. Http://welcomehome.org There are three or more ride boards..... Ocala is great....I usually spend about 500-1000 dollars Sometimes, I don't have any cash, it just depends on how much there is to go around..... You know, all you need is a tent, and a sleeping bag....BUT so many things make a gathering happen.....FOOD WATER an AXE is good, for firewood....I personally like a maul Medical supplies, Pillows.....extra blankets....a cooking pot there are more things on welcomehome.org that are good to bring.....Oh, BTW, the gathering is usually free, except that you are going to share everything you bring..... Have FUn, and GOod Luck Boomer

Hey this was just the sort of post I was going to put, but I thought I'd do a search first! Hello fellow Michigan brothers and sisters! I too am interested in the Rainbow occurances in Michigan, but the webpages and forums are somewhat vague and I've never been to anything around here, or any rainbow gathering for that matter. I know there's not much in the winter, besides the one in February. (plus I'm staying in Cincinnati over the winter then back in the spring) Fortunate son..I live about 45 miles N. of Detroit near Oxford/Lake Orion area. Bigger cites around are Auburn Hills and Lapeer. I often visit Detroit for urban exploration, but its too cold now!! Where are the rest of you guys at?
So, who here of you Michigan folk are heading to the National?? I'm pretty sure I am, as I have friends in CO to meet up with, but company on the drive out there would rock!
It is so cold in mid February.... that is why we go to Florida. We just had a fall regional I slept through it..... I would sleep through the end of the world if it doesn't wake me up.... HA HA Boomer
Hey, I'm a lost rainbow kid....I'm stuck in a little town in michigan and I want people that are like me in my life. I want to live with other loving people....I need musical, free-thinking, open minded people in my life....I'M LOSING MY FUCKING MIND WITH SO MUCH NEGATIVITY IN MY LIFE....I NEED HELP!!! I WANT TO TRAVEL, I WANT TO SEE LOVE!!!! I WANT MONEY NOT TO BE A PART OF MY LIFE!!! HEEEELLLLLPPPP!!!!! ARGHHHH!!!!!!! ARGHHHH!!!!!
I think a caravan from Michigan is in order.... We could make a parade out of it. Heh......YEAH.....Were out here in Saugatuck A bnunch of Kids going to the National. *Boomer
I'm from NWORF(NW Ohio Rainbow Family). I'm in Van Wert county, but get to see the MI Family a couple times a year. I know quit a few Michigan folks.
i live 25 minutes north of detroit. i dont really hang with much family out here and i never have really been to a gathering out here because i spend my summers elsewhere. but i definately kick it with tons of creative souls and we definately party down in detroit. urban exploration, sushi bar electronic dance parties, spinning music and drawing in lofts. i luv detroit. anyone on here ever wants to get together hit me up. peasluvkoz.
i'm living in port huron mi. home of the port huron statement. i went to ocala in 95'. haven't been to a gathering since. i miss it. i feel so out of the loop anymore, but this site is bringing back an excitement i have not felt in a long time. i may have to trek down there to get my soul back in order. i don't have to be back to work until march, whooo hoooooo.
