Virtual Vicky 2020

The Virtual Victoria

A Distributed Gathering of Fae Spirits

sponsored by
the Land aka Amber Fox
but located in
your own living space

May 15 - 18th

It's Vicky's birthday and some queens are sad.

"Why o Why", they wail, "Why can't we gather in fae fellowship as we were wont to do in fairer times?"

Well, it's the COVID dearie. I mean really, read the news!

Sadly, we can't gather on the Land this spring. But a couple of fae folks have had some ideas as to how we can celebrate together while remaining physically distant.

How about an opening e-circle, heart circles online, an online ritual, and of course an online Know Talent Show! How exactly we perform these magickal feats of online connectivity remains to be seen, and we will need the help of all our technofaeries!

Join us for the Fabulosity of High Summer on The Land, AKA Amber Fox. The Land is at its peak, time to enjoy the warmth, beauty and fierceness up close.

Amber Fox has been hosting gay men for almost 50 years. For over 30 years the Radical Faeries have been gathering on The Land.  Giving and taking what we can and sharing our spirit with faeries.

We will have a Fetish night, albeit everyday can be that. What happens at AmberFox stays there and will become a legend in our shared memories.

We are a circle of Queer identified men, gathering together to share our love and spirts, let go and be with yourself, the Land and each other.

All meals are vegetarian, prepared collectively usually under the direction of a kitchen faerie, pulling it all together. We ask $20 a day, more if you can, less if you can't, no one turned away for lack of funds.  This helps us pay for our food and maintain the space.

Come prepared for summer camping, a tent, a change of clothes, flashlight, bug spray if you use it, bedding, toiletries. Bring your fav drag, your musical instruments, your play stuff. Its time to let loose.  No drag, no problem, the Foxy Boutique has the best collection this side of Paris and puts New York to shame.  Be fab.

We will have heart circles each day, a variety of activities and on Saturday evening, the Know Talent show.  We invite your creativity as a performer or audience participant.  You can recite a poem, a reading from a book, do a skit, sing a song or play an instrument, drag of all kinds is welcome.

If you have any specific needs, an indoor space (these are first come, first serve spaces. We can save a space if you have a specific health need. Let us know if you have specific dietary needs.

So come on out, help make this a fabulous gathering.

It's Victoria Day Gathering, Faeries! The Land AKA AmberFox has woken from a long winter rest and ready to welcome you to celebrate Beltane and Queen Vicki's birthday as only we Fae ones can.

The days are warm and the nights cool. There will be heart circles, a trip to the Memory tree, our

Blossoms of The Land.

world famous Know Talent Show and of course the grand fires lifting The Land's spirits and ours too.

Then our meals. We aren't called the gourmet gathering for nothing. All our food is vegetarian and we will be sure we can meet your dietary needs should we know ahead of time.

The Land has many wonderful tent camping spaces and for those that want to be indoors we have some room in the infamous but welcoming BunkHouse.  These are on a first come basis. We only save spaces for those that need it for health reasons.

Remember this is spring in Ontario. You will need warm bedding, some warm clothing and be prepared for some rain. A flashlight is very handy to have as we don't have street lights!

All our meals are prepared collectively with a Fae one or two coordinating it all.

If you would like to help out, just let us know. If you don't like cooking, there's always chopping and dicing and mixing!  

After Dinner on Friday there will be a big display fire near the Erection. Then onto the Departure

Departure Lounge is ready, complete with security
for your comfort and convenience. 

Lounge where we can let our Fetish Flag Fly to the DJKen will have has us moving.


Bring your gear, bring your dancing heels, and be who you want to be, or sit back and enjoy any way you like.

You're also welcome to warm up in the sauna by yourself but its likely there will be company, and don't forget the Meditation Hut on the hill behind the Wishing Tree. This is a quiet space for just about anything even if you're not quiet!

The Erection is spotless for all
of us to mess up!

Saturday is Know Talent Show night. If you have a talent, fae ones make up the best audience. Bring your talent. Read a poem, a page from a book, dance, sing, a short skit, play music, burlesque, its up to you. we also appreciate Faerie audiences.

Sunday we raise the May Pole. After the Pole is erect, a Victorian tea will be presented in the Pole's field or in the Erection if its too wet outside. You'll have enough time for an outfit change. The Foxy Boutique has many fabulous options and of course you may have your own!

Later in the afternoon a trip to the memory tree, to remember dear ones who have passed in this and in previous years. After dinner we will march together to the sacred fire field where we will dance around a spectacular fire.

There's a lot of work to get things
in shape for a gathering.

There's much work to getting the Land ready for a flock of Fae Ones. We will be putting the pump in the well so we can have water in the Erection and make the shower available out back.  The Erection will be scrubbed good and hard leaving it gleaming for you to play.











Usually we wait for the summer to bring out our Dandelion Wine.

This makes great salads and a mighty fine Dandelion wine.

We're making an exception this year as its now ten years old. That makes a fabulous vintage.


We ask $20 a day, more if you can, less if you can't. No one turned away for lack of funds. The Purse at AmberFox is on the wall in the Erection.

The funds pay for our food and sustaining this space in good repair so we can continue to come back.

Contact us or post and we will provide directions. We can arrange to pick you up at the bus depot in Perth or the train station in Smiths Falls if you let us know ahead of time.

A Very Faerie October in Ontario

It's a very Faerie October this year, with not just the one, but TWO Faerie gatherings happening in Ontario this month!

As well as the traditional Thanksgiving Gathering for gay & queer men October 5 - 8, on the Land aka Amber Fox, in eastern Ontario, there will be an all-gender Samhain Gathering October 18 - 21, at Fox's Haven, north of Georgian Bay.

Thanksgiving Gathering

Friday, October 5 at 2pm to Monday, October 8 at 2pm

on The Land aka Amber Fox

Imagine the Land in Technicolor! Seventy-five acres of rolling hills and valleys, painted with the brilliant fall colours of maple, larch, oak and elm. All that is missing is you.

For those who have been to a gathering on the Land aka Amber Fox before, you will know what to expect:

• crisp autumn days
• Saturday night's Know Talent Show
• communal vegetarian meals, with a Thanksgiving feast on the Sunday
• saunas
• bonfires
• heart circles
• dressing up at the Foxy Boutique
• magick & ritual
• working in fellowship with your fae kin
• partying in the Departure Lounge
• trip to the market 
• anything the fae heart can imagine!

There is plenty of room for tenting along the Path of the Snake and in the May Pole field. There is also room for some to sleep in the Bunkhouse (though this is on a first-come first-served basis and space is limited). Make sure you bring a warm sleeping bag or plenty of blankets! If the weather is very cold, the Departure Lounge and even the sauna can become snuggly sleeping quarters.

Remember, there are no paid staff here. Everything that manifests depends on faerie volunteer energy, and contributions to the purse: the suggested contribution is $25 per night, more if you can or less if you can't, and no one is turned away for lack of funds.

This event is for gay and queer men.

If you are a member of our Facebook Group, you can RSVP to the Facebook Event. Otherwise, please email to obtain directions and contact information.

Foxy Faeries Samhain Gathering

Thursday, October 18 at 4pm to Sunday, October 21 at 4pm

at Fox's Haven, near Lake Nipissing

The leaves are falling, the harvest is done.
Samhain arrives with the setting sun.
The bonfire is lit and offerings ready.
The smell of the smoke makes us feel heady.

“Faeries and spirits, one and all,
We ask you now to hear our call.”
One by one, the Fae arrive
And soon the party begins to come alive.

Singing and dancing, stories and boasts,
Interspersed with many ghosts.
As the fires burn out
We all at once shout,
“Happy Samhain this year
To all Foxy Faeries far and near”

Samhain is one of the four great seasonal festivals of the pagan calendar year. It marks the end of the harvest season and the coming of winter.

It is traditionally a time for feasts, friends, festivities, meetings, and a gathering of the clan.

It is also a time that the doorways to the other worlds open, allowing magical beings and spirits to play.

In other words, it is the perfect time for us Fae folk to get together for a fabulous and wonderful gathering!!

How will the Fae Folk celebrate Samhain?

Come JOIN US and help decide!

Foxy Faeries Gatherings take place at a secluded campground near Lake Nipissing, and foster a kink-positive, nudity-positive, sex-positive space. Foxy Faeries events are open to all those of fae heart, the fae-allied and the fae-curious, regardless of gender or orientation.

on

The Land aka Amber Fox

WooHoo! And YooHoo! It's summer, and the fae folk have to get out and party, play and perambulate back to the Land. Bring yourself out to rejuvenate, carry on, say hello to old friends and meet new ones. Bring your magick, fae glam, and outer space energy. 

What have we got planned for this year's High Summer? We're so glad you asked!!!

Wednesday - Welcome Wayward Wanderers

Whether you've just transported down, or flown in from Krypton, we know you'll be tired and hungry when you arrive. So we will have a feast of epic proportions prepared for your arrival!

The meals at Amber Fox are vegetarian, communal and delicious. We have a fully appointed kitchen in the Erection, and are always looking for chefs, assistants, and learners. So whether you want to plan a whole meal, create a single dish, or help chop ingredients, we've got you covered!

Thursday - Super Heroes and Their Admirers 

Tea Dance in the Erection

Everyone has some sort of super power. Let your super power freak flag fly! Come in your secret super hero outfit, wear your super secret hero disguise, or come ready to save the world for Truth, Justice and the Fae Way!

Friday - United Federation of Planets Investigation into the Freaky Fetishy Fae Folk of this Planet 

(and Dance Party in the Departure Lounge)

High-level trade negotiations are taking place! See alien visitors in the midst of lewd alien acts! It's weird, it's strange, and it's ALIEN!

Saturday - Know Talent Show

Saturday night we will enjoy the many talents the Fae folk bring to the Know Talent Show. Can you sing, dance, recite a poem or play an instrument? Or do you have a flair for performance art? If so, we would love to have you join us on stage! A bit shy but want to try? Talk to the show's organizers and they will be sure to find a suitable role for you. More of a watcher than a performer? An appreciative audience is the other essential ingredient for this ever-popular event!

Sunday - High Tea

Picture yourself in a warm forest glade, with colourful silks hanging there in the trees. A cocktail, some music, some dancing or croquet; the sun licks the glittering gown that you wear. Don't dream it, be it, at High Tea.

What else will we do? Who knows!!! It's all up to the fae energy that manifests when the UFP comes to call! But in the past, we've had:

• bonfires
• heart circles
• crafts
• saunas
• dressing up at the Foxy Boutique
• magick & ritual
• trip to the market 
• swimming in the nearby mighty Mississippi
• anything the fae heart can imagine!

Everything that manifests depends on faerie volunteer energy, and contributions to the purse. We ask that everyone contribute something to the Purse, she pays for all our food & stuff! The suggested contribution is $20 per night, more if you can or less if you can't, and no one is turned away for lack of funds.

Please note, this gathering is for gay and queer men.

Canada Day Gathering 2018

Canada Day Gathering

Friday June 29 at 10:00 am to Monday July 2 at 3:00pm
at Fox's Haven
West Nipissing, Ontario

Eau Canada!
How roam a neigh tough land?
Troop ate rot love-in
awl thigh suns come hand.

With glow ingots
We seethe here eyes
That rue north Strachan unfree,
Frum Faron why d'eau Canada
Wheeze tendon guard 'fore thee.

God key power land
Gloria's unfree!
Eau Canada,
Wheeze tendon guard 'fore thee.
Eau Canada,
Wheeze tendon guard 'fore thee.

(Mark M. Orkin, "Canajan Eh?")

Canada Day, often referred to as "Canada's birthday", marks the joining of the British colonies of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and the Province of Canada (Ontario & Quebec) into the Dominion of Canada on July 1, 1867. Originally called Dominion Day, the holiday was renamed in 1982, the year the Canada Act superseded the British North America Act as the country's constitution.

There is no standard formula for Canada Day celebrations. In various communities across the country, the day is observed with parades, carnivals, festivals, barbecues, bonfires, air & maritime shows, fireworks, free musical concerts, as well as citizenship ceremonies for new citizens.

How will the Fae ones celebrate Canada's birthday?

Join the Foxy Faeries and help decide!

Who are the Foxy Faeries?

The Foxy Faeries are a kink-friendly group of Radical Faeries in northern Ontario. What does “kink-friendly” mean? Well for starters, all of the founding members are happily kinky folks. They want Foxy Faeries Gatherings to be a kink-positive, nudity-positive, sex-positive space.

But the group is new! Come join us and help define and discover who we are, and what we can become!!!

Foxy Faeries events are open to all those of fae heart, the fae-allied and the fae-curious, regardless of gender or orientation.

What Will Happen at the Gathering?

• We yoo-hoo and we circle, we work and we play.
• Most of us camp, but there is room for some in the Foxes Den.
• We enjoy communal vegetarian meals.
• There are some traditional events, like the Sunday afternoon Know Talent Show. Can you sing, dance, recite a poem or play an instrument? If so, we would love to have you join us on stage! A bit shy but want to try? Talk to the show’s organizers and they will be sure to find a suitable role for you. More of a watcher than a performer? An appreciative audience is the other essential ingredient for this popular event.

• Others activities are more spontaneous, like:
  • saunas
  • bonfires
  • swimming & boating in the private lake
  • exploring the island
  • hikes & games
  • mud wrestling & oatmeal rubs
  • ritual, magick, meditation
  • drumming & chanting
  • story time & naps
  • spa days, face painting
  • crafts, painting, glitter workshops
  • theme parties with outrageous couture
  • concerts or karaoke
• What activities will happen depends entirely on those who attend.
• If we can dream it, we can be it, but only if we find the faerie energy to make it manifest.

Where Does the Gathering Take Place?

The Foxy Faeries Canada Day Gathering takes place at Fox's Haven, a beautiful campground situated on a 120 acre private property in West Nipissing, Ontario, about a 5 hour drive from Ottawa, 4 and a half hours from Toronto, 3 hours from Barrie, and an hour from Sudbury or North Bay.

Fox’s Haven includes a beautiful lake and island, is criss-crossed by numerous trails, has lovely pine and birch forests, and features beautiful granite rock outcroppings of the Canadian Shield.

The land is completely private so you can enjoy dressing up in your most stunning and fabulous clothes, or dressing down to nothing at all, without worry of outsiders. There are boats that all attendees are free to use to explore the private lake, see the water lilies, row over to the island, and maybe even get the chance to wave at the beavers as they work.

There are two permanent buildings, the Foxes Den, in which some attendees sleep, and the main cabin, which includes a full kitchen.  There are two outhouses, outdoor showers, three large campfires, and numerous trails with forty campsites.

To find out more, check out the Foxy Faeries FAQ.

Want to Attend? Here's How!

In order to attend a Foxy Faeries gathering, the first step is to register by paying a deposit in the online shop. This deposit covers the cost of renting the campground only. The deposit is $50 per person for camping, or $75 per person sleeping in the Foxes den, for the long weekend.

The address will be sent to those who have registered by paying the deposit, one week before the gathering begins.

In addition to the deposit (which only covers the rent), every attendee is asked to bring cash to help feed the Purse. She’s always hungry! The Purse covers the cost of food, propane for the portable fire ring & BBQ, fire logs for the sauna, gas for the generator and any other expenses we run into. Because we don't want finances to be a barrier to attending our events, we use an honour system, with the Purse kept in a central location in the main cabin, and ask that everyone contribute something to the purse. We suggest a $50 contribution each for the long weekend, but if you can afford more, please be generous  so that others who are able to contribute less can also attend. If you are not able to afford the suggested $50, contribute as much as you can.

Equally important is your willingness to contribute in other ways: planning, cleaning, shopping, cooking, etc. If you don't know what to do, just ask. One of the most enjoyable aspects of our created community is working on projects with your fellow Faeries.

So join us for Canada's best birthday party ever!!!

the Land aka Amber Fox

May 18th - 21st, 2018

It's Vicky's birthday and some queens are celebrating!

The Victoria Day long weekend marks The Land wakening up after a long winter. Come and celebrate the glorious beginning of spring. Arrive anytime after 2pm on Friday.

Friday night Departure Lounge party, sauna opening, Saturday night will feature the Know Talent Show. And on Sunday, a Maypole rises in celebration of Beltane.  Other events maybe planned and spontaneous, the Foxy Boutique stands ready to meet all of your dress up, drag and costuming needs. And we do tend to like big glorious fire art.

All our meals are vegetarian, communal and delicious. Please let us know ahead of time of any diet restrictions and we'll try to meet them. The Erection contains a great kitchen, and we are always looking for fae ones to help plan, cook and dice stuff up for meals.

We rely on contributions to the Purse for food, fuel for the pump & lawn mowers, propane for the fridge and stove and all the other little important things that keep the land a welcoming place for all. We suggest $20 a day, more if you can, less if you can't. No one turned away due to lack of funds. Let us know you're coming to help us plan.

It may be a bit chilly, but don't worry, the Land will keep everyone warm. The Erection is heated, bonfires will make us toasty and the sauna is always steamy. Lots of tenting sites. Tenting may be cool, and some will opt for snuggling in the Bunkhouse. This is Ontario, so the weather can change, we suggest you bring clothing for wet, cool, rainy, warm and hot sunny days, warm bedding and foamy, and a tarp for your tent.

Contact us or post and we will provide directions. We can arrange to pick you up at the bus depot in Perth or the train station in Smiths Falls if you let us know ahead of time.

If you are a member of our Facebook Group, you can RSVP to the Facebook Event. Otherwise, please email to obtain directions and contact information.
