Join us at Sherwater eastercamp, a week and a bit long event.

This is a very relaxed and stressless event. Mostly we camp, cook over open fire (yes, so far, we have been allowed open fires), hang out and do some activities. This year, as it is a long event, we have for the first time created a schedule with some activities for those that are interested. We are happy to add more, if people are keen. Possible activities to consider, brewers guild meetup, arts and science classes etc. If you are keen, please let us know.

NOTICE ABOUT DOGS:
There are dogs on site! We allow dogs on-site! Just make sure they are leashed at all times and properly secured at night because there are native birds such as Kiwis in the area and also the occasional farm cat! Also this should be obvious if your dog is extremely aggressive to other dogs, children or people in general, don't bring them please.
If your dog causes an incident you and your dog will be asked to leave site by the site managers.

NOTICE ABOUT BEARS:
They may hug, if allowed.

NOTICE ABOUT RABBITS:
Keep your distance, they tend to be persued by kids with bows and arrows.
