Men's Advance
We welcome all Eliot members and friends who identify at the male end of the gender spectrum. Newcomers are especially encouraged to come out to enjoy hiking, camping, camaraderie, a Saturday night feast, and lots of super-secret men's stuff (which looks suspiciously like doing nothing). $10 is your contribution to the Saturday night feast (kids 12 and under $5). All other meals are on your own – bring good eats to share.
A highlight of the weekend is the traditional check-in around the fire pit after the Saturday night feast – starting after dark and running until 10:00 pm or so.
We also plan to use a wood splitter to split and stack firewood to provide a supply for campers this year. This very useful service task is actually a lot of fun as well!
Most choose to camp in tents or trailers; spaces in the cottage (with running water and electricity) are available by reservation, with priority given to those with medical needs or physical limitations. Eight beds are also available in the rustic bunkhouses. To sign up for the weekend, to reserve a cottage or bunkhouse space, or for further information, contact mensadvance@eliotchapel.org.
