Anyone under the age of 18 MUST be accompanied by their parent.
Bring ID.
No ticket, no entry. No joke.
No food/water/shade/shelter, no entry. Not kidding here either.
No ins/outs.
No Littering. LEAVE NO TRACE. Pack it in, pack it OUT!
No trash in the port-o-potties.
No Vending. This is a gift economy.
No Spectators. PARTICIPATE! Volunteer!
Observe the Laws of the Land.
Observe the Fire Rules.
Respect your fellow human.
