| Info: | [b]OM Summer Solstice Festival 2004, June 18-21, Ontario, CANADA[/b] The OM Summer Solstice Festival is an annually anticipated gathering of global and local networks in rural Ontario, Canada. It is the opportunity to unite as one movement in celebration of music, art, activism and forward thinking. It’s a place to create and inspire, a space to educate and empower and most importantly, a chance to unite and celebrate the strength of our community. We invite you to join us for 4 days together under the sun and stars while the midsummer night and longest day of the year converge. This year, OM will include diverse sights and sounds. Eight sound villages will feature a cross-section of live musical and visual performances, dj’s, and workshops - all presented in a comprehensive edutainment environment. In addition to the creativity YOU bring, we will host inspiring talks, art installations, theme villages, a healing annex, a freeskool, a film festival, an art gallery, and a free community kitchen all entwined amidst the magical Canadian wilderness. The OM Festival was born 7 years ago and as each year passes, it continues to organically develop into a thriving and radiant entity of free expression. Spread the sound … The new site is wonderful ... Rolling fields, wooded forests and the swimable Saugeen river that runs around it. There will be no power on site, so be sure to come prepared with everything you need. items you should bring are: ·A tent & Sleeping bag ·A flashlight with replacement batteries ·Dishes & cutlery to eat at the kitchen ·DRINKING WATER, even though there is water on site, you should definitely bring your own drinking water and a refillable bottle. ·A FOOD DONATION for the kitchen and some snacks for you and your friends ·Sunscreen and shade- you will be in the sun for 4 days, so come prepared and avoid sunstroke! [b]Getting to OM: Bussing & Parking[/b] Each year one of the biggest footprints OM leaves on any site is all the cars. In order to protect the environment we are encouraging participants to carpool or take the bus to OM. So if you have spots in your car or need a ride to OM, visit the OM message board. Or avoid the car tax all together and hop on the bus email getonthebus@omfestival.ca This year, to support these bussing initiatives we have set up a CAR TAX, we are encouraging everyone to be kinder to the environment, so take the bus or car pool to OM. The car tax is based on 3-4 people per car. HOW TO GET-ON-THE- BUS: Many busses will come to OM from all over Canada and even some from our neighbors down south.
