As many times as I have been asked that question, I am always somewhat embarrassed to find myself at a loss to explain exactly what the Gemini Party is. Most of you know that I got this Deputy Mayor position by sheer fate. If my husband (our founder) hadn't gotten called away to the circus, I would be happily working in the background trying to make it easier for him. Instead, I find myself in charge of the chaos, and fielding the question, "What the hell is the Gemini Party?", far more often than I realized possible.
The Gemini Party is different things to different people. For some it is an adult playground, where they get to go bugs**t crazy for three days with out the responsibility of their children, for others, its thier chance to express themselves using their favorite medium be it saw, belly dance, glow, food, paintball gun, costumes, beer, mixed drinks, live music... I could go on for days. Mostly the Gemini Party is about having FUN and SHARING your gifts (whatever they may be) with the community that we create.

The rules and what to bring:
Submitted by mrmayor on Wed, 2008-06-11 08:27.Rules:
1. THIS IS A LEAVE NO TRACE EVENT!!!! This rule is so important that we made it number one. Although we have limited trash and recycling stations here, they are not for your camp’s trash! Pack it in, pack it out. This includes cigarette butts, and pocket lint. Your mother may be here, but I guarantee that she has no desire to clean up after you!
2. NO DRAMA!!! Our community is a better place for this rule! Everybody comes out here to have a good time, so don’t spoil that for any of us! People who start fights/arguments, behave like stupid obnoxious drunks, litter, tea-bag, or are in any other way ass holes will be cheerfully, if not forcibly, placed in the drama cage in order for other residents to ridicule and throw (city approved) things at, until they can play nice.
