Subject: RE: 2007 FSGW Getaway
The dates are in stone, and you should quit worryin' about the alchohol issue. I say this as a fella who enjoys a drink. The Getaway isn't about drinking, it's about music and fellowship. There are simply a few guidelines one should follow and you may PM me and I will share them with you. I had absolutely no problem having a little libation and no one bothered us. You simply have to respect what the gathering is about, and that it is a camp run by a religious organization. If these gatherings, for you, are about heavy drinking, Getaway probably isn't the best place for you. But if you want to set up all night singing and enjoying one another, and all day in wonderful workshops, with a lot of crazy humor, make lifetime friends, and leave with memories you will carry all of your days, then this is the ONE. It is astounding, and will cause you much growth as a singer and musician.

Let me say again that having a drink is not a problem. You just have to use your head. Don't let this be the thing that keeps you away.

All the best,

Mick
