2 August 2008: Gay Men's Week
A gay men's week organised by members of the Edward Carpenter Community of Gay Men. For more information visit www.gaycommunity.org.uk
Come and enjoy a fantastic summer Gay Men's Week with us at High Close. We have exclusive use of the hostel in this beautiful part of the Lake District where you can enjoy stunning views of the hills in the company of lovely men.
Activities on a High Close week are organised by the participants on the week. In previous years they have taken advantage of the surrounding countryside and the hostel grounds to organise leisurely strolls, challenging hikes, music and dancing, swimming in the tarn, games on the lawn, meditation and much more. Last year we even tried archery. Do come and join us, bringing your talents and energy to lead lots of such workshops or just to join in the fun.
All food is vegetarian, prepared by the very friendly hostel staff and self-service; in the last couple of years food has been really good.
Base groups and/or heart circles will meet daily before the evening meal, and provide an opportunity to get to know 5 or 6 gay men really well and to enhance the feeling of community.
Sleeping arrangements are in dormitories accommodating between 4 and 14 people; but with the week limited to a maximum of 55 places, plenty of space will be available as the hostel usually sleeps over 100. The cost of the event is based on a sliding scale. Please see our website for further details and to download a booking form.
