THANK 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.
Condence. 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 ll 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.
Condence.

Q&A
FIREWORKS? No. Never. Ever. In fact, we will ask you to leave if you set them off.
You will be responsible for nding 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 re pits.
Wood will be provided in drop off areas. MNR re 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 re 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 ashlight really helps in making your way to the late night campre stage at the beach.
CAN I SWIM? CAN YOU? If so, go for it at your own risk and never under the
inuence! 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 ll 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.
