==Main Gathering==
 
=== Date ===
 
The gathering is "officialy" starting August 2nd 2021. Some people will get there before to plan things up a bit and some pregatherings will very probably happen before too.
=== Location ===
* Since it's a remote region, dumpsters are not very close.
* They have quite a few dogs there already, so while not saying that no dogs should come, they were a bit scared by the thought that we 'are like them and 50 people would come with 50 dogs'.
 
=== Organizing/Questions ===
 
A.P. on the mailing list proposed to ask questions to locals since someone they know lives nearby. Rom. will be there around mid-July. Also, [[User:Swaden]] will get there around June 10th to ask questions and possibly bring some stuff.
 
So list here questions you'd want them to ask/setup :
 
* What are the possibilities for dumpster diving? Where are the spots? Do we have to bring and buy food ?
* Borrowing bicycles?
* What are the busiest roads? Is there public transport nearby?
* Is there cooking gear to borrow (or even a kitchen) ? Are there drinking water, toilets or even showers ?
* How is electricity ? Do we receive cellular network and is there WiFi or Internet ?
* Corona border situation from a local POV?
* What is the locals language proficiency?
* Where do we camp? Do we have to bring our own shelters ?
* What about this 50 people limit? How flexible is it? Is there a backup plan nearby?
* Do we need to bring tools?
* How is the general infrastructure ?
=== Activities ===
There will be games, music, dumpsterdiving, occasional skinnydipping. Massage circles and hopefully many, many workshops. Late-night joints and bottles of wine passed around, discussions on how to -- you know...
 
==== Knot workshop ====
 
I'll bring some sythetic ropes (also hanf three stranded rope) so we can all study together decorative and useful knots from beginner to more advanced. [[User:Swaden|Swaden]] ([[User talk:Swaden|talk]])
 
=== COVID-19 testing ===
 
[[User:Swaden]] will bring around 5 COVID-19 quick tests (they're free in Switzerland) to use in case for more anxious/at-risk people or if someone starts having symptoms.
== Pre or post gatherings ==

Would be very much worth making a stopover on the way to the Tarn.
=== European Rainbow in the Pyrenees, end of July/beginning of August ===
Some people might also like to meet at the European rainbow beforehand. Please add info here.
