2021 Sasquatch Family Reunion
Kettle Falls Campground in Kettle Falls, WA
May 27th - 31st
2021 SASQUATCH FAMILY REUNION CAMPOUT
The Sasquatch Family Reunion, formally known as the Psychic Sasquatch Spiritual Retreat, has gone through many transitions in 2020 and 2021 as the world and all of us have experienced many changes as well. In 2020, the Chewelah Peak Learning Center where this event has been hosted since 2016, closed their doors permanently due to the pandemic. The Washington state governor also continuously restricted gathering sizes, so the Psychic Sasquatch Retreat was canceled and the Sasquatch Family Reunion was born. Two weeks prior to the September 2020 gathering, we were guided to still gather and to the perfect venue was presented to ensure we could meet within safe and legal guidelines. The Lake Roosevelt Recreation Area and campgrounds in Kettle Falls, Washington turned out to be the perfect gathering area for us, providing nature, water, restrooms, a sacred and historic space, and convenience to town provided an even more intimate and simple co-creative family gathering and experience for all who attended.
In addition, we have always hosted this event on Labor Day weekend at the beginning of September each year, but after the 2020 gathering, we were guided to plan the next one for late Spring 2021 at the same location. The weather is much more favorable at the end of May, not too hot and also the large benefit of being able to have campfires since they are not permitted in September. Besides the climate convenience, the sasquatch elders also explained that it is a new season, a new cycle to this gathering, allowing us to also meet more than once a year. This Memorial Day weekend, May 27th – 31st is the Sasquatch Family Reunion and the Birth of what we collectively co-created and conceived energetically last summer.
LOCATION
We will be gathering in Loop 1 at the Kettle Falls Campground in the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area in Kettle Falls, WA on Thursday May 27th through Monday morning, May 31st (Memorial Day). This park has several camping areas available, day use areas, hiking trails and restroom facilities with flushing toilets and running water unlike most campgrounds in the state. Campsites do not have water or electricity but there are fire pit grills at each site and the restrooms have electrical outlets. The area is within cell range of most mobile carriers. The recreational area is large and beautiful and along the Columbia River with a rich Native American history. There several pavilions, picnic benches, hiking trails, swimming spots and private coves are available for use throughout the park. Pets are welcome as long as all beings are respectful of each other and they can not cause harm or damage to the park, campers or their equipment.
The campsites are by reservation only and currently, we have sites 1-21 in Loop 1 (the entire loop) and #40 reserved for our group and attendees. The park allows for ten people and two vehicles per site but there is a lot of overflow parking available in the marina parking lot, a very short walking distance from Loop 1 of the campground. All event activities will take place throughout Loop 1, contained in an area that should not have any non-event traffic so it will be fairly private for our guests.
CAMPSITES
Campsites do not have water or electrical hookups but each site has a picnic bench and fire pit/grill. Some firewood may be available but we encourage guests to bring/collect their wood for personal fires throughout the event.
We have all sites in Loop 1 reserved (#1 - #21) and also #40 in Loop 2 adjacent to the Kidz Korner (site #6). Each campsite only allows 2 vehicles to remain parked there, including RVs, and each site can hold up to 10 people/tents (overnight) officially. I will be assigning spots for RVs but for tents and other camping, it is first-come, first serve with a few exceptions. Site #20 is the designated Campground Host area and site #11 does not exist. Sites #3 and #16 are reserved for Wednesday, May 26th, so if anyone arrives a day early, you can set up at either one of those sites, although #3 will be the “check-in” area for new arrivals and next to the restrooms.
The event will be spread out in different areas of Loop 1 and the name/location of these sites will be announced and mapped out for your convenience soon.
Guests are asked to respect other campers, especially non-event goers that are camped in Loop 2 and 3, by not walking through their personal campsites to take shortcuts. There are roads and pathways to follow to ensure everyone’s privacy.
PRESENTERS/WORKSHOPS
Each morning, we will gather for a Morning Circle at the Sasquatch Circle from 9:00am-10:00am where participants meet, pray together, make announcements, have fun, and the presenters for the day share who they are and what/where/when they will be sharing their workshops for the day.
There will be three times throughout the day where workshops are offered at 3 or 4 separate locations in Loop 1. Most workshops are repeated at another time throughout the 3 day event to give everyone a chance to attend the classes they wish to take. Workshop times will be between 10:00am – 5:00pm with breaks and a meal in between. Just like every morning will have a sharing circle, every evening after dinner, there will be Music/Ceremony/Meditation circles you can join.
The speakers that are scheduled to present lectures and/or offer workshops in 2021 are:
Some of the topics of the presentations and workshops are:
FOOD
Food will be available in the Outdoor Community Kitchen near campsite #4, across from the restrooms. Guests are encouraged to bring their own favorite foods and snacks as everyone seems to have a greater appetite when camping. Food donations and potluck dishes are always welcome in the Community Kitchen as well. Please bring your own dishes/utensils if possible but if you are unable to, they are provided. We ask that everyone wash their own dishes in the community kitchen and dispose of trash properly. Keeping things cool can be a challenge so cold/cooler solutions and ice is appreciated as well.
There is an hour designated for each mealtime:
8:00am - 9:00 - English Breakfast (not cooked)
12:00pm - 1:00 - Lunch
5:30pm – 6:30 - Dinner
We will have vegetarian and meat options available for each meal. Coffee/Tea makers may not be available so please bring your favorite method or bear with our instant or cowboy coffee. Guests are more than welcome to cook at their own sites using the grills provided or bringing your own cooking devices.
VENDING
Vending is welcome and vendors can either set up at their campsites or in/around the check-in and kids area. Please keep in mind that this is a public park so it is best to have someone watching your items or setting up at a location that is not near the restrooms where a lot of non-event traffic will be if you plan to leave it unattended for a time. There are no special tickets or prices for vending – the 5-Day or 1-Day passes apply to all participants. If you wish for the Sasquatch Family Reunion booth to sell a few items for you, the cost is 20% of your sales.
WHAT TO BRING
It’s best to be as self-sustaining as possible, so whatever camping gear and supplies you can bring would be helpful. Many guests are flying in from out of state and can not conveniently bring camping gear, so if you have any extras to loan to others, it would be appreciated. Needed items are tents, sleeping bags, beds, bedding, etc.
A few must-haves as a reminder are flashlights, batteries, blankets, your own dishes (plate, bowl, cup, and utensils), firewood, snacks, musical instruments, items for the community alter, materials for workshops like notebook and pen, and we gladly welcome and encourage anything that makes you unique… costumes and weirdness included! There are no showers on site (with the exception of one camp shower I have available for guests to use in a privacy tent) so please bring whatever hygiene products that may make your life easier. We are located on Lake Roosevelt to taking a dip is always an option too.
There is a marina store adjacent to the campgrounds where food, water, ice, supplies and materials can be purchased without having to drive to a store in town.

ALTERNATIVES
For those that are unable to camp at the campground, there are a few nearby locations to stay. The closest motel to this campground is The Grandview Inn Motel and RV Park and the Kettle Falls Inn, both in Kettle Falls. There is also the newly renovated Blue Moose Cabins which have 3 full cabins – The Bear Room, The Moose Room and The SASQUATCH Room! Colville is the next closest town, about a 15-20 minute drive from the campground where there is a Walmart, several grocery stores and three larger motels: Comfort Inn, Benny's Colville Inn and Selkirk Motel.
There is a wonderful natural market in Kettle Falls called Meyers Falls Market that I recommend for your food, sanitation, and herbal medicinal needs (and be sure to check out the antique store next to it!), especially if you are looking for the healthiest options.
