High Summer Gathering 2019

32nd Annual
High Summer Gathering
Wednesday July 31 at 2pm to Monday August 5th at 2pm
on
The Land aka Amber Fox

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.

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

The Land is awake, waiting for y"all to come and celebrate!

Victoria Day Gathering

on
the Land aka Amber Fox
May 17th - 20th, 2019


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.
