 |
October 12-14, 2012
At Dragon Hills near Carrollton, GA
Come and celebrate with us as Serpentstone for the final time in Georgia, a celebration of Samhain and of Family. We come together to remember the good times of the last 20 years. We come to look forward to the future. While Serpentstone draws to an end, the Dream continues to live strong within our hearts.
All pre-registrations must be paid before the gathering to avoid a $30.00 at the gate charge, no exceptions! If you pre-register, but have not paid in advance, you will be charged
$30.00 at the gate.
Sorry but there are !!NO!! work studies avaliable for GA Samhain

| Please Bring: |
If you need to buy things, please stop at one of the larger stores, rather than the small convenient stores. It helps keep the small stores able to supply their regular customers, and keeps the rumors and security hassles down.
Tent, sleeping bags, blankets, rain gear and clothing for both warm and cool weather, flashlight, snack foods, ritual gear, drums and other musical instruments. Plan for a wide temperature range, even at this time of the year, but tend toward the warm side. Remember your feast gear and eating utensils (styrofoam plates and bowls are no longer supplied).

NOTE NEW MEAL POLICY: We will provide a soup Friday night and only supper on Saturday. Any breakfast offerings (ready to serve only) contributed will be available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Please bring pot-luck offerings for the feasts. It need not be prepared unless it is baked. Items such as fresh fruits and veggies, cheese, sour cream, honey, breakfast meats, breads, desserts, and salad items are very much welcomed by our kitchen witch. Please drop these off at the kitchen as soon as possible after arriving, so our Kitchen Witch and helpers can begin working their
magic! Having enough for everyone is dependent on everyone bringing something for the kitchen, so please help us have a bountiful feast!

| Please note:
We are working very hard to keep our prices low, despite
rising costs for sites, food, and fuel. If you can add something, even a dollar or two, to
your registration, it may help someone else be able to attend. |
| Community
service: |
- Each participant is asked to contribute two
hours of community service during the gathering. Community service is basically just a
little of the background work that lets a gathering happen, and may include helping out
with registration, food preparation, heralding workshops or rituals, helping with the
site, or cleanup. It's fun, and a great way to get to know folks better!
