In the past we had some pretty views:
We love Claudia's
paintings and here is one of her newest Dershstocks:
For more info about the party in general you can refer to last year's site or sites
from
prior
years
that contain lots of pictures and
details, and can see directions as
well. I also
shot
a cool Quicktime VR of the
house
during winter.
Dershstock happens in
Phoenicia, NY and all are welcome to come party with us. So
feel free to bring friends, family, or anyone else
who you think can put up with us.
Things to do at Dershstock:
Eat, Drink, be merry, rock climb, hike, swim, screw, play tennis, play
ultimate, go antiquing, Hot Tubbin', saunaing, did we
mention
drinking, play music (or sing, or listen), play games, sit by the
bonfire,
read, hang out, meet cool people, philosophize!
Relax and drink 'til you get your fill:
Chill out:
Time to jam:
Dress for dinner:
We never really know who will show up:
Or what they might be doing:
Things
to bring to Dershstock:
Sleeping bag, tent (if you want to camp), bathing suit (optional), food
(bring
some stuff, and we are all pretty communal about it & there is
always
a grill on), drinks (beer, wine, great bottles of Scotch, martinis,
etc. ), ice,
coolers
(we always have more food than fridge space), sporting gear (hiking,
rock
climbing, tennis, etc.), games, friends, musical instruments, CDs (it
is
hard
to bring much music from California), towels, cameras, art supplies,
good
weather,
philosophies!
The beds are somewhat limited, but there is plenty of floor space 
, and more camping space outside than we can possibly fill
up.
So tents are probably a good idea.
A few people have asked about
local
hotels, so we now have a slightly old list,
with no promises about price, or quality.
RSVP not required, but
appreciated.
You can get in touch with us with more questions by emailing
or hannad@world.oberlin.edu

event)

Check out the excellent Dershshop that Charles
set up to purchase great Dershstock merchandise!
We did shoot a few more
pictures in the last few years.
As always, there are lots of pictures of Mars and Zara available.
, and more camping space outside than we can possibly fill
up.
