I guess everyone keeps asking the same old question, that they already know the answer to ......... Why is ocala gathering considered a schwag gathering & family avoids it like a plaque ......... Well... at the 1981 annual gathering, it was consinsed in vision counsel that no permits be signed for any gathering there after, & that if any permits were signed, then it would'nt be considered a family gathering !!!!!!! Hence...... since a permit has been signed for the past umpteen years, most family does not consider ocala a family gathering, & consider it a schwag gathering, & avoid it like a plaque Well folks, now you know why all these years ocala has been considered a schwag gathering, & most family avoids it like a plaque !!!!!!!! LOVE & PEACE LONE WOLF
the largest regional in the united states is avoided like crusty teeth?? hmmm so your sayin that all them folks who attend ocala are fake rainbows with dirty teeth?? or do you really mean plague,and really meant high holies and not your generalization of all rainbows?? if its the latter,then i will respond by sayin im glad the high holies are staying at home,they get on my nerves...
its cause hippies spread rumors i think its a little awkward that some of theese frillys have more negitivity to spread around than the folks who theyre trying so hard not to be ocala is a BLAST man ya gotta just take the bad with the good its the same ANY FUCKING WERE you go
oh yeah and who are you anyway mr. bad company, the official high holie spokesperson of the rainbow family?
Ocala gets out of hand! its a great gathering when the energy is there... but by the time seed camp ends most people are worn out!
Went there in 03' after a winter in Key West. Met Luke there. Saw some crazy stuff, but tried to see the lighter side of it.
I guess that at some point in time there were good intentions & it was a regional gathering of the "Rainbow Family of Living Light". But, it is prolly some sort of curse that Florida has, a curse that is spread across the board, not just hippies. Florida tends to be warm during the winter months, (in reallity ocala party is in the middle of the north part of the state & is really actually cold), so people who are lost & wandering think that this is the place to come. The people with troubles in their life think that Florida is the place to quest to & heal up there problems, they come on the greyhound, they hitch a ride at a truck stop or just convince a group to travel to ocala because it will "Be better", better than where all their problems were before. Well, this has been going on since the begining of time in Florida, everyone comes here thinking that thier life is going to be better, that all their mental problems will be gone, that they will not partake in their old habits, and that Florida is the solution to what that want to escape from before, up north. The ocala party in the woods is a perfect example of where the bottom of the influx ends up, and why there are so many really bad situations there. There is no deposit on cans in Florida, why is that?, because so many homeless, transiants, hobos, beach bums, psychos, and the like would travel here each winter & try to hack out an existance all over the state, so in reallity, Ocala forest is their best bet at the moment & has been for years. If you want to know what a Rainbnow Gathering is, go to a "National" gathering, ( it is not "Nationals", that is a car race )
