What in the world is a Men Fest? I was told tonight that Camp Gaea would be closed for two weeks to hold the Men Fest. What is it? (Not that I'm interested rather, just want to know something about it. Does anyone know?

This is an event they have held for several years at Gaea. The first time I tried to go there I was stopped at the gate and found out the retreat had been rented out for the event. (Always check Gaea's calendar before going out there).

The event is basically for gay men who are involved in earth-based (pagan) spirituality.

There are a few links about it on the web if you google it.

Jeff, Thanks for the heads up! I sort of wondered if that was the case.

Couldn't make it to the swim tonight. I live so far away and I have to drive so far home from work in the wrong direction. I liked coming to the swim however. Will try again next month. The Sun Run was great fun. Enjoyed the swimming afterwards so much and got some really good excersize and visiting - went back to gaea yesterday and enjoyed the afternoon there also.

Thanks again! Jerry
