Bradford 'Pop-Up' Forest Fest 2018 (with overnight camping)
Event Information
Description
Forest Fest has always been a highlight of the Bradford Forest School calendar and a chance for practitioners and anyone interested in forest schools to get together, meet new people, swap ideas, learn some skills and have a really good laugh, all in a beautiful and relaxing woodland environment!
We no longer receive any funding to support Forest Fest or the BFSN, so this year we're running it a bit differently. It's going to be a collectively run event, with everyone (i.e. all attendees) contributing to the delivery of it e.g. through running a short workshop, cooking, sorting the campfire, making teas and coffees etc. No specific skills are necessary and you won't be asked to do anything outside your comfort zone, but hopefully you can share and learn and have a laugh as you go...
There are three ticket types:
CROWD FUNDERS: in April we asked people to commit to paying £20 for the weekend in order to hire the site. You know who you are. Thank You! Please note that there's a booking fee on top (which we need to pass on to make sure we don't make a loss)...
PAYING BFSN MEMBERS (you know if you've paid your £30 subs): It's a mere £25 plus booking fees. BARGAIN!
BFSN ASSOCIATE MEMBERS OR OTHERS: it's still a snip at only £35 plus booking fees. Please note that you can become a member (for reduced charges) at any time, just fill out the form on the website.
If you would like to STAY OVERNIGHT for a campfire (& associated activities!), camping/bunk bed and a Sunday morning activity, plese note that there is a £5 overnight fee, to be purchased separately. You can chosse between camping in your own kit (unlimited) or a bunk bed in a shared dorm in the Grimley Centre.
PLEASE BOOK EARLY TO ALLOW BFSN TO OPTIMISE THE EVENT, IN TERMS OF WHAT WE PROVIDE FOR YOU.
