probably been asked a million times, but this is gonna be my first gathering Ive ever been to (been wanting to for years but never had a ride or the money) any brotips for first timers? Ive read some online on a gathering group for facebook (make your own toilet out of a bucket/pool noodles so you dont have to fuck with the portapotties everyones been on for instance) but I just figured this board would have plenty of veterans.

This year will be my 7th; beyond water & food I recommend good walking shoes/dry socks for days, sunscreen, and if u can swing it a car pass:

Using a locked car at your campsite to hold stuff takes it to another level.

Money on the ground is not your friend. Point it out and make your buddy pick it up.

Definitely look back through some past threads in this section of the forum for really good tips. Adding stuff that you may not normally think about; powder, chapstick, beef jerky, blunts, baby wipes. If I have those five things along with the standards like toilet, water, sunscreen, and shelter of some form I'm straight for days.

And don't spin any wheels. Wheels are not your friend.

Tarps. 

 

They will help you claim real estate upon arrival and will provide sun/rain protection.

thank you for the advice. Id be more worried about catching the herpatitaids from someone else using it but that is good advice (im usually up by 6:30 am but I doubt it will be that way at the gathering) xD

Yeah, about that....bring ear plugs. there are fireworks/m80s going off constantly, like every 5 mins from Tuesday night until, they run out Sunday.

not if i have anything to say about it.  which i probably will.  fuck fireworks.  

  

bring trash bags, chickenhunter.  put your trash in them.  

this is apparently much harder for juggalos than it sounds, but its extra hard if you dont bring the damn bags.  

  

also, those socks?  get a brand new bag of very thick, very fluffy socks.  you can get by on the same old socks you always wear, but it wont be the same, not by a longshot.  

full bag of new socks, preferably enough to change out twice a day.  you will thank me.  

  

[edit]  typo fix.

And if you want to make money? Slang socks for quadruple the price! Fuck family!

Hahah nah.... but great advice. I'll reiterate what I've felt to be helpful that hasn't already been mentioned:

- healthy food. Hopefully fruit like kiwis (loads of vitamins and potassium), citrus and such

More water!

Since your from Canada, you're gonna also need a passport...cant forget that my international ninjas!  

Also...backpack, wagon (to haul cooler/ice/water), a smile, more clothes than needed, good footwear, more than enough cash, and have essentials for the possibility of rain...and if you never camped before, i suggest a trial run.

And dont expect to be one of the bummalos and be able to get by, cuz you will end up in an ambulance, i guarantee it.

Passport Im applying for when I get my next check on the 30th (on a disability) im applying at the passport office so it should definitely be in before july. as for the rest of the advice I shall heed it. not gonna bum any drugs/liquor only fucked with pot and I had to quit due to it making my hearing voices worse. want to be sober enough to remember every little detail of this giant fucked up family reunion :)
