a few notes on what to bring and what to expect Please Read:It is going to be an awesome gathering packed with so many totally cool revolutionary activities you’ll hardly believe your reawakened senses.
* Bring food to share. Also coffee and tea and chaga. A potluck dish for friday, and lots of ingredients to give the cooks for the other meals. Such as: veggies, farm fresh eggs, flour, rice, mushrooms, etc…
* Bring your dreams and inspire us with them. Bring your prophecies that challenge and restore.
* Dress warm. We’ll be outdoors a lot. Bring bedding and consider camping out if that is possible for you.
* Dream new dreams and sing them around the fire.
* No shoes in the house!
* No dogs (Sorry, we love dogs, but the house is already too packed)
* No alcohol or drugs at ceremonies
* Bring some cash to give to our musicians, speakers, and cooks 🙂 Also we will take up a donation for Camp Anishinaabek and the Water Protectors that are defending the Straits of Mackinac from Line 5.
* Bring your Joy to share as we’ve all had more than enough sadness for one lifetime.
