 Accomodations
 

Free Spirit's Beltane is held at the Ramblewood Retreat Center on 200 acres of very private land in Northern Maryland. Minutes from I-95, our Beltane festival is easily accessible by public transportation.

Once a summer camp for kids, Ramblewood has been completely upgraded and now caters exclusively to private groups. Each of the 40 cabins have full bathrooms with hot water, showers and flush toilets. Cabins also have electricity, clean mattresses, new lighting and ceiling fans.

For those who wish to get closer to nature, you can pitch your tent almost anywhere on the 200 acre camp. Tenters have full use of bathroom facilities in the cabins.

Other facilities include a swimming pool, a lake for canoeing, Lakeside bonfire and miles of hiking trails.

       
Meals
 

While some people enjoy cooking their own meals at their campsites, most enjoy the community of sharing meals at the camps dining hall. This year's dining hall mealplan will feature a buffet breakfast each morning. Other meals will be a la carte, with an ability to eat anytime you like during the course of the day. You'll be able to purchase what meals you wish to eat at the dining hall each day.

If you do decide to prepare your own meals, you should know that the camp offers no real solution for dishwashing or food storage, although they do sell ice in the canteen. You are prohibited from cooking in the cabins or on the porches and you can’t wash your dishes in the bathroom sinks. Hot water is available to haul to your campsite.

 
Merchants
 
Merchants are welcome at Beltane. For this event we charge a $20 fee. Vending space at this event is outdoors and locations vary from shaded to sunny. Due to high demand for merchant spaces, this year we will begin assigning spaces to merchants. We are also moving our merchant's row to the traditional location at FSG. If you have questions, drop us an email.
 
 
Community Service
 
This year, sensitive to how precious your free time is, we have chosen to make Community Service purely voluntary. If you would like to help out, there will be a sign-up sheet at check-in. If not, you are under no obligation to do so. We want you to enjoy yourselves.
