2009: The 27th Annual Thanksgiving Gypsy Pilgrim Jamboree!

Keep Fuckin' That Turkey!

Another Happy Hour Event

What is the Jamboree? It is an organized campout with our friends, relatives, and their friends and relatives held each year to experience some of what the original pilgrims experienced in 1621. While the weather controls much of the activities during those few days, it always involves typical camping stuff: hiking, biking, fishing, drinking, burning things, sharing stories, and most importantly, sharing our love and thanks for all the friends and good things that we have in this world.
