IV. Updated Dreem Roster
Official Countdown!
T-minus 39 days until D.r.e.e.m. Reality arrives at the Gathering around June 20th. Also, our official survey-based head count is:
100% Sure Coming: 16
50 - 90% Sure Coming: 9
10 - 40% Sure Coming:1
What Do I Bring?
Personally.
There are definitely some things you'll want to make sure you bring into the Gathering. Once again, there is no electricity, no "running water" so to speak, and you WILL be out in the woods getting dirty. This is backwoods camping, and you'll have to hike your gear in through a trail for 1 - 2 miles. (Though, if you need help - there is plenty of family around)
With that said, please see the website for a general idea of what you may wish to bring personally.

According to my Arrival Date.
While we D.r.e.e.m. Reality plans to be at the Gathering from around June 20th until July 7th, with an established Kitchen-Village, there are so many friends and family arriving at various dates during that time frame. According to the survey results, this is the trend of DreemKitchen's projected population over that time.

There seems to be four "Waves" of Arrival/Departure, and each has a particular way it can contribute. (Bringing Food and/or Supplies is a HUGE way you can help the Kitchen before you even step foot in the woods).
Identify which "Wave" you are a part of, and click the link for more details on what you can bring to contribute!

and check out the Running Master Supply List to see everything we Still Need and Already Have.
Also, you are welcome to contribute your muscles, music, mind, experience, creativity, laughter, etc to grow our community and create an amazing experience for yourself and everyone!
Getting to the Rainbow Gathering: "How To" and "Ride-Sharing"
How To.
The process of getting to the Gathering is always an adventure. As you may know, the location is never stated exactly (as in a street address), but the forest and nearest town is. Presently, there is no confirmation on the location but it should be known by early June. When you get to the town, there will be ways of finding out where it is in the woods - from a line of vans and buses to follow, or some kind of visual aid (rock pile, artwork, etc), and of course word of mouth. But it always works out.
When you get to the Gathering, you will park your car with the others (either in a grass lot or along the road). If you have a school bus, you should make sure you bring it to "Bus Village"! There will most likely be people manning "Welcome Stations" to wave you along, answer questions, and generally make you feel...Welcome! Once you have parked and are ready to hike in, ask one of the many beautiful people shouting "Welcome Home!" at you, if they know where D.r.e.e.m. Reality is. If they don't know, you'll probably figure it out perfectly! We'll be flying our banner that has our logo, so you should be able to find it easy enough.
Ride-Sharing.
You are welcome to either bring your own vehicle or ride with someone else. The sense of community surrounding the Rainbow Gathering, is very strong - so feel free to tap into it by either offering your vehicle as a ride (saving gas money), or getting a ride with someone else (helping with gas money).
For this purpose, I have started a little Google Group available for sharing information. However, there are also several other ways you can find a ride share from anywhere in the country! Please explore the following links if you are interested in Giving or Receiving a Ride.

*Safety Note - it's always important to be aware of your intuition when riding with someone you have never met before. Of course, you'll probably be fine and have an excellent experience - but just a caution.*
Dreem Roster Update
We seem to be growing quicker and quicker as a team! Below is the Official DreemTeam Roster for the Kitchen, based on those that filled out the "Super Fun Survey". However, there are many more people coming to participate with us - that haven't filled out the survey. So rest assured, there will be more than this coming!
