This is Ontario, so summer
can be cool or really hot. It can
rain for days or be days and days under a
hot muggy sun. Bringing rain gear and shorts maybe a good idea and remember to leave Geneva's
F-ing umbrella alone!
Bring everything you need for summer camping in the woods, a
tent, warm sleeping bag or blankets, pillow, flashlight, bug repellent, sunscreen, and a divine wardrobe suitable for summer weather conditions in which all clothing styles and fashion are both optional and encouraged. You may also find this post on
What to Bring to a Gathering helpful.
Some indoor sleeping space is available but limited in the bunked up BunkHouse.

Remember, there are no paid staff here. Everything that manifests depends on faerie volunteer energy, and contributions to the purse:
- washing dishes, preparing meals, planning events, chopping wood, mowing lawns, tidying and cleaning, repairs, new construction ... it's all up to us
- but the work becomes play when shared with your fae friends!
- the Purse relies on donations for the food we eat, fuel for the pump & lawn mowers, propane for the fridge & stove, candles, paper products, and all our other mundane needs
- 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
- we ask that everyone contribute some cash, even if you can only afford five or ten dollars per night
- it is also helpful if you can make your contribution when you arrive at the gathering, so that it can be used at the next shopping trip
