WHERE DO I WANT TO STAY?We suggest that you request lodg-ing in the Camp that most closely fits your interests. We will try and accom-modate your lodging needs as best we can. If requests are too detailed (such as I only want this and not this if this and that) we may have to accept sim-pler registrations first due to our time constraints, which may jeopardize your being able to come to camp. Please keep it simple.

DEPOSITSDeposits are not refundable for any reason. If the balance is not paid in full POSTMARKED by June 22 the deposit is forfeit at that time. Any moneys paid to Lark for food or the balance of camp fees are nonrefund-able after June 22. No exceptions. If you have made a deposit to camp and cannot come you may be able to sell your deposit to someone else at the sole discretion of Lark (example: if you are in an all women’s cabin and you want to sell your deposit to a man you will not be able to make this trans-action, etc.). The deadline for reserva-tion transfers is July 20. We cannot give out names from the Lark wait-ing list. You cannot sell the deposit to someone already signed up on a camp crew. It cannot be applied to make up the balance on another deposit. Once you have canceled your reservation your deposit is forfeit and non trans-ferable. Deposits cannot carry over to the following year. A moderated web-page for registration exchange at larkcamp.com/exchange.htmlwill become active when and if the camp sells out; this web page becomes inactive June 22.

GUARDIANS AND MINORSAll minors (anyone under 18 years of age) must attend Lark Camp with a parent or guardian (a guardian must be at least 21 years of age). There is spe-cial paperwork required for a minor to attend with a guardian rather than a parent or legal guardian. Guardians will receive forms that must be filled out by the parent, guardian and minor, and returned to Lark Camp by July 1, or the minor’s registration will be can-celed with no refund.

TRANSPORTATIONThe Woodlands will provide a bus for transportation between camps. The bus operates from 8:00 am to 3:00 am. The bus has been nicknamed Camp Four and can be an on-going portable

Lark In The Morning Music & Dance Celebration was started in 1980 to pro-vide a venue to allow traditional musi-cians and dancers to get together and share their music & dance (A music & dance party with highly educational overtones). This event is an open forum for musicians, singers & danc-ers to exchange ideas and learn with-out being in a rigid school structure.

A Celebration Of Music And Dance • Imagine idyllic days & nights in the Mendocino Woodlands magical red-wood forest filled with all the music, dance, and good times you could pos-sibly stand, and that’s kind of close to what Lark’s Music & Dance Cel-ebration is like. You are free to take as many or as few of the workshops offered as you like; jam sessions 24 hours a day, big dances every evening. Plenty of good food, new friends, and musical stimulation. Truly a unique total immersion into the joys of nature, music and dance. Many workshops for the professional as well as the begin-ner! Check out Lark’s favorite camp photos http://www.larkcamp.com We may add some of yours. Send them to Mickie at registration@larkcamp.com Jpeg or Gif files only please or better yet if they are on the net send us the URL.

THE LAYOUTSee The Map

Detailed maps at: larkcamp.comTHEMES

There are 3 camps divided by the following criteria with workshops, sessions, dances and events in all 3. Location subject to change. CAMP ONE British Isles, Eastern Europe, Greece, ScandinaviaCAMP TWO Latin & North America, Spain, France CAMP THREE Middle East, Greece, Drumming, Africa

FULL CAMP OR HALF CAMPFull camp is 8 nights and half camp sessions are either the first 4 nights or the last 4 nights. Most workshops are designed to run the full length of camp. If you are coming for half camp

you will be taking partial workshops.THE FACILITIES

CAMP ONE has 46 four-bed cabins. Each cabin is equipped with a fire-place, closet and balcony. The cabins are clustered in three groups, with a hot-water shower/toilet facility in each group. The kitchen adjoins two dining halls with a large fireplace in each hall. Additionally, Camp One has an 1,800 sq. ft Dance Hall with a stone fireplace.

CAMP TWO has 34 cabins. These are wood structures with screened win-dows and a closet in each cabin. The kitchen adjoins a dance hall which has a large fireplace at each end. The hot water shower/bathroom building is located near the dance hall. The cabins are clustered in four groups with a cold water toilet facility in each group. The Pavilion is an enclosed tent for indoor workshops and sessions. CAMP THREE has 16 four-bed tent cabins, with a wooden floor and canvas tents over a wooden frame. The Middle Eastern Coffeehouse has a large fire-place and is used for dancing, events and workshops. There is a fire circle that is used for drumming workshops. There is a central hot water shower/restroom building. The tent cabins are clustered in three groups with a cold water toilet facility in each group. All of the cabins and tent cabins are equipped with cots and mattresses (no bedding).

TENT CAMPINGThere are designated tent camping areas in each of the 3 camps. Each of these areas allows a limited amount of tents; we cannot exceed this limit. NO tent camping is allowed in other areas. Once an area is full no further tents can be placed in that area. All tenting is pre-assigned. Due to limited space, tents with more than one person may be given higher priority. CAMP ONE has 3 areas: Area A-Meadow, Area B-Below the Lower Road from near the meadow to below the lower dance floor, Area C-Lower Gate. CAMP TWO has 5 areas: Area D-By Cabin 27, Area E-By Old Swimming Pool (not func-tional), Area F-By Cabin 26, Area G-By Dance Hall, Area H-Towards The Dam. CAMP THREE has 4 areas: Area I-In The Grove, Area J-In Camp Three Meadow, Area K-By Parking Lot, Area L-Near Long Term Parking. When registering for camp you may request tent camping by area in a cer-tain camp and we will try and accom-modate your request. If the camping area that you requested is not available we will assign you space as close as possible to your request.

VEHICLE CAMPINGEach of the camps have space for vehi-cle camping. You may bring a camp-ing vehicle. If your vehicle is over 20’ long call for space availability and sur-charge rates. No hook-ups are avail-

able. No motorized vehicles in the Camp One meadow, just trailers and tents. If there is no place left for your camping vehicle in the requested camp you will be assigned to vehicle camp in one of the other 2 camps. A tent attached to a vehicle is not a part of the vehicle and will not be allowed. Due to limited space vehicles with more than one person may be given higher priority. All trailers in Camp One must be parked in the meadow. All trailers at camp must be preapproved.

party and session. Bicycling between camps is encouraged, bring bicycles. Driving between camps is not permit-ted. If anyone has to make frequent trips to town they will be parked in an area that does not require driving through camp.

PARKING AND CARPOOLINGTo keep the number of cars in camp to a minimum, no cars will be allowed in a possible camping space. This means if you are not staying in your vehicle it must go to long term parking. Long term parking is in Camp Three, 1-1/4 miles from the center of Camp One and 1/2 mile from Camp Two; a shuttle bus runs between camps. There is also a parking fee per vehicle: $50 Dis-count Price / $52 Full Price pre-pur-chase, $60 if purchased at camp (cash or check only at camp). If you pre-pur-chase a parking pass and then do not bring a vehicle, contact us after camp for a refund. A vehicle with trailer is considered 2 vehicles. Carpooling is highly encouraged. If you can offer or need a ride post it here. larkcamp.com/carpool.html Call us if your vehicle is over 20’ in length.
