[dharma bum]

this is the one to be at. i'm not even worried about ocala or regional gatherings... and i'm currently in ga. i am definately going to the national gathering, and i'm bringing a shit load of water this time too!

if anyone offers you tea and they will, it's not tea. i'm not sure what all s in it, but be ready! i wouldn't worry about the tea in a-camp so much as somebody giving you a twinkie and wake up 2 days later. fuuuuucccck that

I'll probably end up going, I used to live in Florida and I never made it out to the Ocala gatherings or anything although a few of my friends did....Washington sounds ALOT more interesting. Prettier scenery, i'd bet.

Also if ya never been a few friendly tips.
Or a few friendly tips if ya been and are a spoiler/taker/parasite.

Try to get there early for a good camping/sleeping space.

Bring stuff to trade, peeps LOVE chocolate & candy for trades.
A good sharp stick is a plus while yer sitting on the ground-
keeps the dogs & wasters off yer stuff. It worked for me.

If you don't want to get sick or get other peeps sick:
Ie if you don't want to get diarrhea & vomiting or Hepatitis or food poisoning................
Wash yer hands!
Cover your shit & paper & wash yer fucking hands !!
Again wash yer hands !!
Watch where you walk the closer you get to the main circle/main camp areas.
Human shit piles we EVERYWHERE on the ground near the main circle
in New Mexico 2009.

Main circle afternoon meal:
Get there early & sit down.

Stay in A Camp if you want to be obnoxious, violent, hurtful or rip people off.

Get involved with a kitchen crew !
I went to the New Mexico gather 2009 and helped out with Instant Soup & Bees On Earth- both vegan kitchens,
with a regular clean water supply & clean kitchens & crew.
I will hook up with either of those or one of the raw food kitchens.

Rainbow Gathers are what you make them.

The Location will be announced in early April.

If want to get involved in Scout camp/securing the site, just want to find out where it's gonna be, etc
Call the Northwest Rainbow Light Line:

I have a feeling it will be in the North of Washington State as that is where Thanksgiving council was held.
