What should I bring? We recommend you bringing a comfy camping chair, a hat or umbrella for some shade, a refillable water bottle (there will be water coolers), layers of clothing if needed for warmth, $ for food trucks and merchandise, and an open heart to experience a bounty of goodness throughout the day.

Outdoor port-a-johns will be located close to the main music listening area. Fully accessible bathrooms will be available inside the church building.

Bathroom facilities? Port-a-johns will be onsite near the main music listening areas. Fully accessible bathroom facilities will also be available inside the church throughout the day. 

Drugs and alcohol? This is a substance-free event. We hope to create an uplifting community experience of inspiration and connection without the influence of drugs or alcohol out of respect for our gracious hosts, the Manchester Church of the Brethren, as well as for those in recovery and those who choose to live a substance-free lifestyle.
