Why do I have to sign a hold harmless agreement, liability waiver, and rules/code of conduct prior to entering the festival ground?
Because we said so. This is a private boutique event and a family reunion. We want all patrons to be on their best behavior while looking out for each other with caring vibes and a whole lot of love. The Lookout Arts Quarry is a beautiful piece of property where we will all play at our own risk. Take care of one another.
What if I don’t sign the agreements?
Beat it.
If I do not sign the hold harmless agreement, liability waiver, and rules/code of conduct prior to arrival can I sign it on site?
Yes, but we’re making it very easy to e-sign in advance and it would be greatly appreciated by all if you would just do so here, nbd.
Can I bring my kids?
Kids under 3 are free, children aged 3-12 require a $40 donation to Lookout Arts Center. The donation can be paid online or at the box office. All other minors require a general admission ticket. The Quarry is an environment where children will need constant supervision by parent/guardian at all times. The event will not be providing child care services or locations.

No. Appropriate amounts of alcohol for personal consumption will be permitted to legal age adults at their campsites. Legal age verification via legal identification will be necessary for a 21+ wrist band worn at all times in order to drink responsibly on site. No open containers allowed throughout the venue. Please bring your own reusable cup. NO GLASS allowed.

Splishing and Splashing sounds alright, but what if I’m really not that great a swimmer
You can Splosh Sploosh Splish Spleesh Splash any way you’d like. Stick to wonking on land and work on your tan if you can’t splish splash and swim in the water. No floaties provided. This entire weekend is for professionals. Play at your own risk.
How Does Car/RV Camping Work?
Very limited numbers of vehicle/RV camp sites will be available. You will have a designated space for your vehicle upon arrival.

What’s the WONK Olympic Games and Open Mic Talent Shows all about?
Fun stuff here! We want everyone involved. Registration for the Games and Variety show will be on site. You don’t have to participate in a game to be on a team. Each competition will result in winners throughout the weekend. The Open Mic Talent Shows will be hosted each evening. Sign up to showcase your artistic talents.

Can I volunteer?
Possibly. Email acornprojectmusic@yahoo.com for more information if interested.
In the intro letter it says “someone will be crowned,” what’s that all about?
To KNOW is to WONK and to WONK is to KNOW. Ask around. 😉
I’m special, how do I get a discount, guest pass, etc?
This entire family is on the guest list after ticket purchase. Your money is a donation in our eyes to make this little dream all come together. We respect the years of dedication from our family and friends as a whole. Please know we’re putting this money to work to provide as great of an experience as possible while not turning it into a giant crowded spectacle. 1 for 3, 2 for 5 does not apply here. No deals! (But the heady burritos might still get you high).
This is a lot of info, sheesh! Are there any more rules?
It’s all in the code of conduct that you’ll have to sign off on, but highlights include no firearms (duh weirdo), no illicit activities, no drugs, no violence, no fireworks, treat others how you’d like to be treated, no bad vibes.
So with all this stuff being said, will I be fine?
Yes! This will be SO much fun!!
Anything else?
Nope. If you read this laundry list above then congrats to you, champ. You’re really getting after it there, bud. Way to go, slick. Can’t wait to see ya out there, pal. You’re pot committed now, lady. We love you, gal. Get it together, kid. Move on with your life, homie. Buy your f*cking ticket, wonker. Take a shower, wook. Big love to all!!
