BRING IT
Firstly: something of yourself
Whatever you can imagine, small or large, mundane or creative. You all have such gifts to share and we want to celebrate that. No pressure. Some thought starters:
You like reading -> set up a little reading area in the shade.
You have a favorite baked good -> bake it.
You are an expert forager -> take new friends on a walk in the woods.
You like the spa -> set up a little face mask moment.
You like washing dishes -> wash everyone's dishes!
You like stars -> teach us all about the night sky.
You like songwriting -> run a songwriting workshop.
You like to grill hot dogs -> grill hot dogs.
Need ideas? Ask! Have an idea? Tell us!
Some examples from the past: Roman led a yoga session, Marina brought an orange wine tasting, Dave set up instruments in the dome, Kon brought a sauna, Josh brewed beer.
Food & Drink
NEW THIS YEAR: Please bring your own reusable plates, bowls, cups, mugs, and utensils. We are trying to reduce trash!
Saturday night is a potluck -- bring something to share! There will be coolers to store things and the grill will be on.
Coolers and portable grills if you have them.
If you're drinking, bring your favorite booze or mixer to share.
