SERVICES/LOGISTICS
Food & Other Vendors:
We’ll have more vendors this year throughout the weekend and many back from last year offering handmade crafts and of course all kinds of homemade meals and treats sourced from local farmers. Our local coffeehouse will sell java drinks to meet your caffeination needs. If you would like to join our vendor group this year with food or other items for sale, please contact us. The vending fee is $25 in addition to the purchase of your festival ticket.
Lodging/Camping/Facilities:
Camping is encouraged so you can remain onsite throughout the weekend and build community with us, though if you prefer a cozy place to stay off-site we encourage you to stay with Sharyn at Mountain Springs Inn or in town at Boone Tavern, each just 10 miles from the festival grounds.
We ask that campers make a $10 contribution per tent to the festival this year to support the land and enable us to keep the overall Festival affordable everyone. Please let us know if you intend to camp—e-mail us at info@clearcreekfest.org so we can plan ahead to make sure sufficient sites are available.
You are welcome to carry your gear in at any time throughout the day and most camping sites are within a few hundred yards of the main parking lot. Since vehicles are restricted to the parking areas, we will also have a vehicle available to help you load in your gear.
We are not equipped to handle RVs, pop-up campers or car camping, so please plan to bring your tent & sleeping bag and enjoy sleeping under the stars with us!
We have drinking water, limited cold-water washing & shower areas, and composting toilets as well as composting perma-potties.
What To Bring:
FLASHLIGHT! especially if you do not plan to camp, you may be walking back to your car in semi-darkness. Those requiring special assistance will be shuttled.
Weather/Environment:
We plan to have this festival rain or shine, and will have some sheltered spots available. You might want to bring ponchos, etc. as well. Also, please be mindful of yourselves and your kids, as we are going to be IN THE WOODS, complete with wildlife, crawlies, creepies, poison ivy, etc. Please take appropriate precautions!
