Feeling new? FAQ + First Timer's Survival Guide

We are beyond excited to return to the venue of the very first Recess on the east coast.  Get ready to dance with the fireflies through warm summer nights and cool off during the day running barefoot through the sprinkler, sliding down the slip and slide, and relaxing in our newly designed bus top pool.  This is an all camping event, with hot showers onsite.
