Important information about our visit to Clear Lake State Park:
While Park staff has been aware of this event for months and has been very helpful in its logistical preparation, one of the rangers told me this week (on Thursday, 9/19) that Hands Around Clear Lake is a "special event" and the application was never filled out. (Other park employees have previously assured me that this application was unnecessary and that we do not qualify as such an event). This ranger yesterday indicated that if anything resembling a "special event" was taking place, there may be consequences. What those consequences are, I am not certain.
Many thanks to Clear Lake State Park, and the staff there, for holding space for us to gather on Planet Earth. We are committed to stewarding the land responsibly and honoring our hosts and neighbors. If you are planning to attend the gathering, please do your best to respect the space and call 415-646-5630 with any questions. Much gratitude!
