It is longstanding Rainbow Family consensus that nobody has ever, or ever will represent the Rainbow Family. This is an unofficial collection of information on the Southern California Rainbow Family and the Rainbow Gatherings, and in no way should anyone who works on this web site be considered to be representing the Rainbow Family.

Bring musical instruments and your smiles. Please support our circles when they are called. The circle is what makes the Rainbow.
Just a reminder, no smoking is allowed in San Diego Parks or on San Diego Beaches.
Balboa Park adjacent to Marston Point in the Pine Grove Picnic Area. From the intersection of Sixth Avenue and Laurel Streets in Hillcrest, enter the park going east on Laurel (which becomes El Prado). Turn right on Balboa Drive which is the last right before the Cabrillo Bridge. Follow Balboa Drive as it loops around and look for family near the Pine Grove Picnic Area and the restrooms.
From the 2007 Gatherin in Arkansas:
So some individuals who gather have been talking to the Undersecretary
of the USDA, Mark Rey, about alternatives to signing a permit for non-commercial group use.
I've attached two documents that show an "offer" on the table from
Mr. Rey. First is the entire fax in one PDF document (you'll have to rotate it to turn it around). Then are two GIF files page one and page two of the same document as indicated. Please download, link to and/or distribute this information freely.
Both pages of Mark Rey's Offer letter for this year's gathering in Adobe Acrobat PDF Format

PS. A kind brother made a copy that's supposidely smaller in size. That version is at JPEG Version that might be smaller in size.
If you're not up on the issues regarding the group use regulations, google Rainbow Gathering Group Use Regs or email kzirk@earthlink.net
One of the best places to start is by reading the Mini Manual of Gathering Consciousness. Mini Manual in PDF Format

FOCALIZERS
A Focalizer is anyone willing to be a focal point or conduit of energies and information. They focus efforts to tasks
that need to be addressed. Anyone can be a focalizer to whatever degree they choose. If you see an overlooked
need, take the initiative and do it! Volunteering for too much can burn you out, so get help, lovingly delegate.
Sometimes there are people waiting to be useful, with hidden talents. A good focalizer respects consensus, avoids
egoism, empowers & respects people, and allows them to learn, even at the price of inefficiency. They are not like
leaders in Babylon. They are not placed OVER us. A focalizer lacking vision and wisdom will simply not be followed.
Their election is ongoing.
