Hunter Thompson Community (original) (raw)
Wanna wanna wanna see a great swap meet? Check out the Rainbow convention!
All hippie, gutterpunk, fruits and skank trade... With a twist of LSD and musical entertainment.
Om circles containing thousands (diminishing over the years). All wishing for peace.
Free food from any kitchen, and whatever donations you have will just add too your karma!
NO ALCOHOL!!!! unless you chill at A Camp (not recommended). A Camp is the alcoholics who cause trouble outside the circle to keep the FEDS out of the event. No alcohol does not mean logical euphoria is banned! For those, or people like me, If you want to drink... Keep the bottle hidden... If not, you'll be told where to take it.
Follow the rules that the Federal Wildlife Marshals give! If they tell you not to dig a hole for a fire pit... DON'T DO IT!
Wear foot protection at all time... I always wear my nice waterproof Timberlands.
Know your plants. You don't wanna be poisoned.
RESPECT THE ELDERS!!! The more you listen and help em' out... The more entertainment you'll receive!
Don't ask for drugs... It's just shady and pathetic.
LOOK FOR THE DRUG FREE ZONE! They usually stick to kitchens, and most kitchens, if you help out enough will invite you into the drug free zone.
Doctors and nurses are usually around to give advice or soothe most simple ailments... Look for C.A.L.M. All medical treatment is free of charge, but if you're truely badly fucked up.... Go to the damn hospital!
The conventions are usually, and most likely kept under close watch by Federal Wildlife Marshals and the FBI... So that means don't park your car with anything stupid in possession unless you know what you're doing!
The last gathering was in Northwest Arkansas, and the next regional (Aug 15th- ??) is in Maine... Maines first gathering, and that is backed by an international somewhere in Ontario, Canada.
Any rainbows interested??? Check the sites out, And for those who like to take trips in small squares, or by the mouthful from little eyedroppers... I suggest helping out the kitchen Bare Necessities !
