The
Ravens have made an annual pilgrimage to Hillside on this weekend
since 1993 — it was our first off-Island activity. It has become an important
brotherhood event for us and our friends from the leather
community.
This year (as for the last
couple of years) we have reserved Site 60, both the upper and
lower levels. This is a large site, with a covered cooking
pavilion and immediately adjacent to a restroom and shower
facilities. Tent sites are first-come. If you prefer a more
bucolic atmosphere and privacy, we suggest camping on the upper
level.
As last year, we will be
kicking off the weekend on Friday Night with our infamous
camp-wide open
invitation COCKtail party.
We also provide play areas available all weekend.
All meals are provided,
from a light supper Friday evening through Sunday's breakfast.
While the Ravens do the cooking, we would hope to see help from
our guests.
Cost is $60
PLUS
campground fees. (Visit
Hillside Campground for information). Even if
you are paying by check, we'd appreciate your placing the
reservation through the store.
While Ravens "site 60" reservations are to be made
through us -- we feed reservation information to the
Hillside staff -- Hillside Campground fees are paid directly by
you to the camp on
check-in. Hillside Campground staff will not check you in to
Site 60 unless you are on the Ravens registration list.
Cost covers meals, booze
and beverages (including the open cocktail party), ice, campfire wood,
and group incidentals.
Cut-off date for
reservations is July 4th. Because of cooking
logistics and meal seating, we are limiting attendance to
40.

inquiry to the appropriate Ravens Brother.
