Now that Steem is m00ning again, I want to remind everyone that my Steemy Summer Party is definitely on. I have already reserved our community pool and the event is on my community's calendar as well.
My first idea for this event was a bit too ambitious, so I have decided to make it a relaxed, social event, geared for both Steemians and newbies alike. Having attended one meetup with Steemians in Missouri already, I have to admit, meeting face to face is a very rewarding experience! This will be a family-friendly party. We have an olympic sized pool that I have reserved for Steemians in the evening. So, the event will be free for anyone who has a Steemit account. If someone wants to go, they need to create a Steemit account first.
HERE ARE THE DETAILS:
June 24, 2017
4 pm- 9 pm
Location: 194 Oak Hill Cluster, Independence Missouri 64056
If you're coming, I need a head count, so please comment if you can attend! The food will need to be ordered in advance.

Dinner will be provided. Most likely it will be Mexican food. We will eat outdoors.
After dinner people can swim in our private pool, socialize, explore the woods in our community or just talk about how cryptos are m00ning.
Ambitious people could talk about how we could potentially convert my community into the first crypto village. We have the infrastructure to do this. (This is one of my dreams).
@jessamynorchard has agreed to sing and perform. (please confirm).
WHAT I NEED HELP WITH:
- People to help prepare food and clean up.
- Spreading the word.
- Creating a video/film of the event.
WHAT I CANNOT PROVIDE
I don’t have accommodations to offer, so if you’re traveling from out of town, it will be up to you to reserve your own hotel or lodgings.
A word about the community where the event will be held and its design:
The community hosting this event is called Harvest Hills. It’s a Christian community and therefore comes with a number of rules. The pool has rules as well, and the main ones are no smoking or drinking inside the pool area. There’s no lifeguard, so you’ll be responsible for yourself and/or kids. Drugs are not allowed as this community is not a hippie commune or anything like that. Imagine how you would conduct yourself if you visited an Amish community. Harvest Hills is not Amish, but anyway, you get the idea. It’s an intentional community and I will be responsible for all guests. I want to be as straightforward as possible about this in order to avoid problems. If you’re wanting to party, get wasted and act like an idiot, etc., this is not the event for you. I was granted permission to use the church community center only after I spoke to the church leaders and they learned what Steemit is about. I have a real world community reputation, as well as a Steemit reputation. Keep that in mind.
The land in the center of the circle of houses, as well as the woods surrounding Harvest Hills is owned by the church and not individuals.
This kind of communal ownership of land creates a sort of unity that could not be accomplished otherwise. People are free to start their own gardens on the communal land in designated areas. There’s also a barn that is currently not being used. At one time there were horses living in the barn.
It contains many earth-homes called Terra-Domes and Dome Homes that were built over 30 years ago.
Most of the houses are situated in a circle and in the middle is a playground for children. The reason for it being built in a circle was to encourage communication and also provide a way for parents to help each other watch kids, who are usually playing in the middle of the circle.
If you're interested in helping at this event, please let me know. I won't be able to do it on my own.
If you have questions or want to organize anything for this, email me at leahstellaATgmail.com. I don't use Steemit chat, so don't message me there.
Thanks!
@andrarchy and all other marketing people, I could use a boost from you. Thanks.
Please re-steem so that as many people as possible see this!
We need a community board area so we don't miss posts like this..
