Hi Everyone,
****TICKETS HAVE SOLD OUT****
Unless you have already talked to us, you will not be able to purchase tickets, anymore. If you missed out, hopefully we'll seeya next year
****NewsFLASH 27/08/06****
Site goes online tonight www.common-ground.net
Workshop timetable is up - if you think you can help with any of the workshops (or even if you think you can run one!!) please let me know, I'd like to organise at least one person to run each, and a couple of supporters for the big ones.
****NewsFLASH 25/8/06****
Roll UP! Roll UP! Roll UP!
GET YOUR COMMON GROUND TICKETS ONLINE NOW!!
100 Online Tickets @ $20
Please email: common-ground2006@hotmail.com
for account details.
Looking forward to seeing you all at Common Ground.
K8 - and the Common Ground Team.
-----------------------------------
If you want to see how much Fun was had at Common Ground (or you just like to be reminded) check out this;
Common Ground 05
Everything else is unconfirmed as such - so if you can think of anything that might be relevant to a big group of spinners living together for 4 days let me know by PM.
The local CFS and Progress Association will be providing affordable meals for brekkie and dinner on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday morning. The've been told that there will be many vegos - so each meal should be vego friendly, or have vego options.
****update**** The meals will be;
Breakfast on Saturday Sunday and Monday
;
Bacon + Egg between two pieces of toast or Egg + Tomato between two pieces of toast $4
and / or
Thick Pancakes for $1 each with Jam or Lemon and Sugar topping
and / or
Cereal for $2 a bowl (cornflakes or wheatbix)
Tea or Coffee for $1 / mug
Dinner on Friday night
will be a big pot of Pumpkin soup for a gold coin donation per mug full, with a few bread rolls n stuff
Dinner on Saturday night
Tacos with your choice of beef based or bean based filling and salad $2 each
and/or
a big Baked Potato with either of the above fillings and / or coleslaw n cheese $4 each
Dinner on Sunday night
Vege Burger or Minute-Steak Burger with salad $3
Beef snag in a piece of bread for $1
So yeah the CFS and Progress association are getting right behind it all, and I think the food and prices they are charging are quite reasonable
Please note - no lunch will be provided - you will need to sort this out yourself. There is a supermarket 5 minutes drive from the site tho - so it will be easy as.
We will be opening the site about lunch time on Friday the 29th of September and will be expecting to close the site for cleaning on Monday Afternoon (ie, everyone should be out by then). Between those times we will be expecting a lot of magic, learning and laughing with a huge group of friendly spinny / juggly types.
We will be following a similar structure to that we used last year - ie workshops, chill parties, fire spectacular show to which the local community will be invited (who LOVED the show last year btw), Drums n Bonfire - with the addition of a festival day with all day outdoor music, chilled out workshops and more.
checkout the timetable for the workshops;
www.common-ground.net/timetable.html
This year we will have improved toilet facilities (ie more of them) and improved camping.
The site is limited to about 150 ppl so pre-booking by bank transfer is the best way to confirm your space. we've had a steady series of ticket requests coming in, so if you want to come, dont dilly dally! Get your ticket now!
Seeya,
Josh

They are fully nylony/cotton (no holes in the hammock like those made from rope or string) and theres a length of rope at each end that you can tie round a tree.
They have taken a fair ammount of abuse (people doing 360's in them repeatedly) and they stood strong.
I'll try and pick you up a red one.
and they look like... umm.. this as demonstrated by two of the loveliest hippies I know

I dunno why I still keep coming into this thread, cos I can't come to CG and I wanna and I'm likely to start stamping my feet... but...
hammocks rock, so I had to join in... when I was a kid (15ish, maybe?) my mum let me drill holes in the walls of my bedroom, so I could put eye bolts in the support beams and string a hammock across my room...
never got stuck in one upside down before though...
