WHAT TO BRING
Wear old clothing that you do not mind getting dirty, and please wear
long pants. Bare legs are not recommended because they can easily get
cut from objects like cut river reeds. Also, a hat is recommended,
especially during the summer months, and please bring lots of liquids to
drink. Bringing gloves is also recommended but we usually have some
extra pairs available to loan out.
ADDITIONAL INFO
If you come late, it will be about a 25-30 min. walk to our location on
the island under the elevated C2 highway walking from the Kasaibashi
Bridge under the Tozai Line bridge to the end of the pod section. Call
James’ (the organizer) cell phone 090-1847-5075 if there are any
problems finding us.
RAIN
In the event of light or medium rain this event will NOT be cancelled.
Please bring rain gear and we will take shelter (under a bridge) until
any downpours let up. In the event of heavy rain/strong winds (e.g.,
typhoon conditions) or lightning then the event will be cancelled (and
usually moved to a different day).
Let’s have fun enjoying our local nature while making it better at the
same time.
