Ocala, FL 2011 Regional Rainbow Gathering
- Thread starter wildboy860
- Start date
this is going to be a tight freakin deadline. first time in a while I've actually felt the urge to be somewhere on time, with quite a distance to travel. i met these kids at wallmart the other day that had a big green school bus, called themselves the Grateful Bread Phamily. Anyone know of em? they said they are heading to Ocala from LA relatively soon.
I'll definitely be heading there after the holiday shaz is over with. Really looking forward to it since I missed out on the one at Allegheny National Forest.
If it wasn't so damn cold I'd be riding my bike down there. I could totally make it before the Feb 6th official start.
My boyfriend and I just left Ocala. Take this for what it's worth. The police are at Ocala National Forest right now, turning away anyone who tries to come through, unless you have 12.00 per night to camp. They are claiming that Rainbow will not be permitted to camp there this year and that it's park regulations to pay 12.00 per night in order to camp. Unless you want to fight them and risk going to jail, they aren't letting anyone in as of right now. It def wasn't worth it to us, and we left.

Duh, but this time they are giving you two options, turn around and leave, or go to jail. I know police are at every gathering. It would be insane to think they wouldn't be with that many people. All I know is we were stopped by a mob of them and given the option to leave peacefully or go to jail. I left. Fuck jail lol
site says no holding camps until after hunting season is over, which is Jan 11th. maybe they just charge for hunting season?
vision council isnt until the 14th, so that would make sense to me, I think?

just missed last years Rainbow gathering on Vancouver island last year. Thinking of heading south this summer, would love to be there!
I don't know why anyone would really be in Ocala right now anyway. I don't think anyone will even be there for seed camp for another 3(ish) weeks.
As far as the $12 camping fee goes, it may be a hunting season thing like junkyard said. And, did you really just leave when the cop said pay $12 or leave?
If you really wanted to see if anything was going on yet why not just drop anything that makes you look like your camping? They can't charge you a camping fee if you aren't camping.
