There are several other groups
of FRFF
regulars who
have named their campsites. This list is
by no means
complete. If you have a group campsite at FRFF that you want to
let people
know about, please email the webmaster with
info. We also encourage reciprocal links,
so
please let us know if you link to us!
All
camp location information below is based on the old FRFF site at Long
Hill Farm. Camp locations for
FRFF 2006 are
not known at this time, but we expect all these camps to put in an
appearance somewhere.
As we learn more
about other camps' plans we will post anything we know here.
(The Budgiedome is usually
at the far left of the ridge,
looking uphill from the mainstage/festival entrance area.)
Along the center of the ridge overlooking
the festival are:
- The Front
Porch - middle of the ridge. Old-time volunteers and their
friends. Late-night music.
- The
Big Orange Tarp,
a/k/a BOT - on the ridge somewhat to the
right of the Budgiedome. A collection of folk music
lovers who travel the U.S. from festival to festival, taking the BOT
with them. Late night music; song circles.
 is on the far right as
you look up the hill. This camp is comprised of a group of Hudson
Valley musicians who perform regularly through the year, including a
few who
have been featured at Falcon Ridge. Late-night music; song circles,
pros night.
On
the slope:
- Camp Dar - on
the slope above
volunteer camping, and downhill from the Budgiedome. Dar Williams fans from
the old dar-list email newslist
have long camped together at FRFF --
whether Dar is on the bill or not. Their website and ride-sharing
list unfortunately have gone inactive, but the large, tight-knit group
of Dar Campers has not dwindled at all. They say "Anyone is welcome to
come camp with us next year! Just come on over, pitch your tent, and
introduce yourself!" Late night music; sing-alongs and song
circles.
Hilltop
Camping:
Behind the ridgeline of camps, but still
in the all-night music area:
- Camp 9 - next to
Volunteers' tent. We're About 9
fans.
- GFP (George Fox
Pavilion) and Dharma Cafe - a/k/a Nields
Nookers and Kennedys fans.
Located
on the tree line behind the volunteers' tent. Good food and
drink, full bar tent, hot shower, late-night music; song-circles,
sing-alongs, pros night. Dharma Cafe serves as a separate area
for people to noodle around on their instruments and compare
notes and chords.
Teepee Hill:
This is the first camping area on your
right as you go up the road toward hilltop camping.
- Happytown - on the small ridge by the
dance tent road, look for the blue
and white canopy with Buddhist Prayer Flags. Dave Carter and
Tracy Grammer fans congregate here. Tracy stopped by in 2003, and
was welcomed by a crowd of 100. Late night
music: Sing-alongs, song circles.
Lower
Camping:
- Lower Camp
Früvous/Camp Edhead/Pirates Patch/the Lobby - lower camping, near
the footbridge to mainstage. The downstairs, quieter sister of
the Budgiedome.
There are Edhead parties here, with ample food and drink, but as this
is a quieter camping area there is no late-night music.
