This page is a central dump for the organization of the 2015 hitchgathering.

Discussion happens at the mailing list.

Location for 2015 is going to be St. Laurent du Pape, A. Ardèche, South-east France.

This is a wiki. You see something that's wrong, edit. You think something is missing, edit.

On site logistics

To Do

  • Dig shit pits (Really? I remember someone saying that there are dry toilets on site)
  • Set up a fireplace.
  • Talk to local businesses about sharing their trash.
  • Find big cooking pots and gear, bring onsite.
  • Put up direction signs from the motorway exit.
  • Check with our hosts whether we can buy some of the food they produce. Otherwise check with surrounding producers (just go to the local market and ask around the stalls).

To have

  • Shovels
  • At least 2 big cooking pot(s)
  • Rope
  • Plastic bags for trash
  • First aid kit
  • Paper, pens, markers, tape, (black)boards
  • Food in all sorts. Basic stuff like salt, oil, spices,

Communication

Online

The website

hitchgathering.org

It's a presentation site that is meant to explain the concept to the newcomer and an online window to the outer world. It's secondary purpose is to store the stuff from previous gatherings.

Needs graphics. Join the mailing list to help.

It's got Piwik and SEO plugin. Anyone feels like optimizing?

Any chance we can have it in French too? -- Sitarane (talk) 23:35, 26 May 2015 (CEST)
