  • 3THANK YOU FOR ATTENDING R&S

    Its hard to believe that some of us have been at it for six years now - audience and organizers alike. Many, many thanks to Mark Browning for setting up the sonic stuff so nicely over the years. All of our tech crew - love you guys. Thanks to super Dan (and Melis for letting him work on R&S so much). Lara, Sebastian and Quinn - you guys are the best. Chris & Julie & Mark & Lyndon & Paul & Willow - thank you all very, very much.

    Our Board, current and past members, has done a tremendous amount of work that will go a long way to ensuring that R&S is a stable organization for years to come. Many thanks to all of our Board members for pitching in their time, energy, knowledge and experience.

    To all our members/volunteers - thanks for putting the hours in to make it all happen. Enjoy yourselves this weekend and spread the joy and share the load!

    Special thanks to all of our funding and media partners and contributing sponsors. Our relationship with Heritage Canada and the Ontario Arts Council goes beyond grant money - many thanks for all the workshops, networking and knowledge sharing. A&M Remediation deserves tremendous thanks for backing R&S efforts so generously over the past two years. Thanks Paul! It is great to be able to begin to support our emerging artists beyond getting them onto the R&S stage. Sudbury Cyclist Union - I hope you guys take over the city! Keep up the great work. Thank you to all of our working partners and organizations including special thanks to Eat Local Sudbury.

    Confidence. R&S was a leap of faith six years ago. Here we are today. My message to you today is to believe in yourself as an agent of change. You can affect change in this world. Many of you already do. There are so many beautiful caring busy souls in attendance at R&S. I hope you have great fun and fill your hearts full of hope and determination. I hope you are able to recharge your passion. Know that your efforts to make our world cleaner, safer and more loving are appreciated beyond measure.

    There are some great community groups associated with R&S affecting positive change in our neck of the woods. If you do not already volunteer in your community, I urge to meet some of these groups over the weekend.

    Or - start your own! You can do it! Anything is possible.

    Confidence.

    Peter Zwarich, Festival Director

    Q&A

    FIREWORKS? No. Never. Ever. In fact, we will ask you to leave if you set them off. You will be responsible for finding a way home, from the middle of the woods. So, please dont put us, or yourself in that situation. Save them for your birthday or Canada Day. Theyre just not safe with so many people around.

    WHAT HAS LEAVES OF THREE AND YOURE ADVISED TO LET IT BE? Poison ivy. While we have taken precautions to remove this highly reactive vine, keep an eye out and stick to the trails.

    CAN I START A FIRE? Fires need to be contained in fire pits. Wood will be provided in drop off areas. MNR fire bans apply to R&S. If youre planning on cooking, bring a stove. Be sure to have water standing by if you need to douse the fire in an emergency.

    WHAT DO I DO WITH MY VEHICLE? Most cars need to be at the top of the hill in the general parking lot. Once the festival starts no driving on site! Riders from the Sudbury Cyclists Union will help you get your gear in with bike trailers.

    GETTING AROUND AT R&S? Bikes are the best. When walking protect and cover your toes. A flashlight really helps in making your way to the late night campfire stage at the beach.

    CAN I SWIM? CAN YOU? If so, go for it at your own risk and never under the influence! Note: Our beach area is unsupervised and the Sturgeon River has a mild current. You can also feel free to jump in the Oxbow beside the main stage too. Children must be supervised by their parents in the water at all times.

    I AM SO THIRSTY. That is not a question and this is not Jeopardy, but thats ok because there is free drinking water available via a fill station near the Main Stage. Bring containers.

    WHAT ABOUT SMOKING? Discretion is always appreciated, especially around children. Make sure your butts are well put out and disposed of properly in a tin can or your pocket. Butts dont biodegrade and we want to keep Fishers Paradise free of them.

    WOOF/NEIGH? Dogs are awesome but need to be on a leash. Please dont bring them directly in front of the main stage it is a stressful place for dogs and a nice place for humans to sit on the grass. Same applies to horses.

    WHERE CAN I WASH MY BODY? If you want to freshen up, go for a swim. But dont use soap or shampoo with phosphates in the river! Think biodegradable soap.

  • WHAT IF I NEED MEDICAL HELP? St. John Ambulance is on site at the festival, ready to help out. In case of emergency, the closest hospital (with an ER) is the West Nipissing Community Health Centre, 145 Main Street, Sturgeon Falls. Turn right when you leave the property and follow the signs to Sturgeon it is about a 25 minute drive.

    WHERES THE CLOSEST PLACE TO STOCK UP? Turn left as you leave the property and 9 kms will take you to the LCBO in River Valley. River Valley also has a chip stand and a Family Restaurant/bluegrass bar. Or turn right, and about 6 kms will take you to Fields LCBO in its general store. You can buy cake at the store too! Both general stores ask that you buy something, if stopping in to use the can.

    IS GLASS ON THE GRASS A GOOD IDEA? No. Please avoid glass. Pour it into a cup and youre gold. Absolutely no glass near the main stage. And wed prefer that you not bring glass containers at all, wherever possible.

    WHAT DO I DO WITH MY GARBAGE? Look to sort your stash before you trash. Your empties go toward keeping R&S rolling.

    HEY, ARE THOSE MOSQUITOS? Welcome to Northern Ontario! The witching hour comes just as darkness falls. Prepare with some bug dope, long sleeves & pants. FYI Mosquitos like dark colours and bite through black tights. Light colours are best.

    We were so busy piecing together this cute little Survival Guide that we forgot

    to come up with a brilliant ad of our own.

    Well come up with something better next year.

    KETAMINES (TORONTO, ON) 12:30 PM The Ketamines move from Lethbridge to Toronto means we get to catch them way more often, and no ones complaining about that. Their most recent LP You Cant Serve Two Masters has been called one of the better psych listens of 2013.

    THE HIGHEST ORDER (TORONTO, ON) 7 PM With two Simones Schmidts guitar/voice and TBs percussion along with Kyle Porter on bass and Paul Mortimer on guitar, this new collective, born from some of the members of One Hundred Dollars, has a psych-rock feel. Welcome back.
