It seems the link to the message board is no longer there.
hmmmm???

when you get onsite you may get drawn to a certain area or geographical anomaly.
you may meet some one who has already found a place.there are many ways to
choose.I would suggest going with your first instinct/gut feel.
you will generally find work shop spaces spread out throughout the whole site
independent of specific village areas,
You will find that you meet all the most relevant people in your life @ confest
in divine timing it might be 2 or 200 people depends on the number of workshops
you participate in, communal cooking activities,
Drumming, first aid, well being, fire twirling, dancing, acro, maint, setup pack
down etc
each activity brings you closer to the bigger community in confest.

Happy ConFest :-)

Namaste!
Thanks Starman and Benny! I encountered some sort of a navigation problem at
the website. I can't find the Message Board somehow. Maybe I'm missing it?
I have another question, regarding the concept of the Villages. I understand
that hundreds of people attend Confest every year, and thus the Village idea.
How do u choose a Village? Does everyone at Confest get to meet everyone else at
some point of time during the week? Are the activities different for each
Village? Pardon the questions.

Peace and Love
Reilly

No worries Mate, Just contact DTE(confest) direct.
They have a message board to hook you up with folks
going to Confest. Also you will easily meet people in
Australia. The Australians I have met are now long
time mates. It is a fantastic country and so are most
of the people I have met.

There will also be posts on this message board.
All the stuff you need to get is easy to buy and very
affordable. You may not want to ever leave
Australia. Especially after a Confest or two. I have
been to seven so far since 1999. I am from California.
Cheers and Good on Ya Mate, Starman

To live so recklessly
My skin, my bones, my Heretic Heart
