------------------------------ --------------------------
BLACK SWAN LAKE is located 5 minutes off the scenic and historical highway: US-50, about 15 miles east of Bedford, Indiana in the Clear Spring area. BSL is a large alternative campground with 2 stocked fishing lakes (no swimming), a round house where Native American ceremonies have taken place, several roofed gazebos, one large open space for the main circle (where the electric stage is set up and the evening jam happens), surrounded by plenty of RV/van/camper space with water and electric hook-ups ($5/day for electric), two wooded tent camping areas, showers and privies, large air-conditioned community building with a stage for acoustic music, and a restaurant/concessions building (3 meals a day). No problem with drumming and jamming all night long and celebrating nature without harassment. There is plenty of clean well water (the best in the area) and ice made from that water is available. The owners are into earth-based spirituality, organic gardening, and sustainable living.
------------------------------ --------------------------
NO PETS POLICY - no negotiation - just don’t bring any. If you have a legitimate seeing eye dog we need to know that before hand. This is a site owner policy.
NO WEAPONS - Leave all weapons at home. They are not appropriate at festivals of this size. No exceptions. This is private land and these are the necessary rules.
------------------------------ --------------------------
VENDING - If you plan to vend non-food merchandise and/or hand-made goods/crafts at any of the above festivals, please register/purchase your ticket soon and, after doing so, send us a self-promo blurb with hot links to your online site and we’ll add it to the website. Let us know which fest you have purchased tickets to when you email aeonlaunch@yahoo.com and remember: there are no extra fees for vending - but food vending is taboo. The site owners have that covered (see below). You may vend at your encampment or on vendor row (see “camping areas” below)
------------------------------ --------------------------
FOOD - Bring your own or purchase at the on-site restaurant run by the site owners. They have very reasonable/fair prices and want to know what you would like to eat. Send your food suggestions and requests to: aeonlaunch@yahoo.com … There will be ICE available, made on site from fresh spring water.
------------------------------ --------------------------
DISHES & RECYCLING - No trash! No cig butts on the ground (pocket them if you smoke). Don’t bring trash and, if you do, bring a trash bag so it can go home with you. We have stations set up for recycling bottles and cans and recyclable plastics. Paper can be burnt in the fire pits. Garbage can be placed in the compost pile but no trash bins! Maybe you shouldn’t have brought that junk it in the first place (hint hint). To avoid using wasteful disposables - BRING A PLATE, CUP, & EATING UTENSILS. There is a dishwashing station set up by the restaurant and one by the shower house. Please use them.
------------------------------ --------------------------
CAMPING AREAS - We have divided the festival site into several areas:
1) VENDOR ROW - camping at site (no electric) - or - with electric ($20 extra) - email us to see if any powered spaces are still open (register early to reserve space).
2) LIMITED RV - 24 sites with electricity ($20 extra) - email us to see if any powered spaces are still open (register early to reserve space). These are located around the central circle/stage.
3) VAN, BUS, & CAMPER FIELD - Need to camp out of your vehicle? This area is for you and it is adjacent to the fire gate of the main circle/stage so you won‘t miss the show.
4) PERFORMER/ARTIST CAMP - Wooded campsites set back behind the Round House performance area. This area is for musicians and artists. There are fire pits (firewood available on site), water stations, and electric hook-ups available ($20 extra). You can off-load your vehicle then park in the parking area nearby.
5) PEACEFUL WOODLAND TENTING - If you need to sleep at night, camp here. It is the quietest and most peaceful camping area, a short walk from the rest of the festival. You can off-load your vehicle then park in the parking area nearby. There are fire pits (firewood available on site) and water stations, nice big trees for daytime shading, and electric hook-ups available ($20 extra).
6) LAKESIDE SUBSTANCE FREE ZONE - We’ve set aside an area for the folks who wish to camp where no alcohol is consumed and where smoking is not allowed. If you want to camp in this area, just ask where it is when you arrive.
------------------------------ --------------------------
PERFORMANCE SITES - We have three primary performance areas at the festivals:
1) INDOOR LOUNGE - open during the afternoon as a cool space and staging area for workshops, video productions & films, and for acoustic performers (there is a powered stage here).
2) ROUND HOUSE - at the Black Swan AAMF this is the late night DJ/remix dance party zone (starts at midnight) - at Lady Liberty and Acoustic Harmony, the round house will be one of the workshop areas and an evening jam session center.
3) MAIN CIRCLE STAGE - 360 degree sound system - this is “big band space” during the day and “community jam space” in the evening. This is the place for hooping, poi spinning, bubble blowing, dancing, and evening light shows.
