Camper's Survival Guide

Fire Ban
Unfortunately, we are still under a county fire ban, due to lack of rain. Unless it is lifted before Oct 11th, there will not be fires allowed at The Sustainable Living Roadshow or after party. Please do not throw cigarette butts on the ground. The land is so dry, and can easily catch fire.

No dogs allowed. Although we love um, we can't allow dogs at a public event of this size.

Alcoholic Beverages
A variety of alcoholic beverages will be provided during the day by Nomad Bar. Outside alcoholic beverages will not be permitted at The Sustainable Living Roadshow from 10am-7:30pm.
It will be acceptable to have your own alcoholic drinks at your campsite, or at the after party, from 7:30pm-8am.
