Hey beautiful Intention Gathering People,

Summer is almost behind us. That’s why we’re having an Outdoor Potluck & Dance Party! Come between 3pm and 9pm on Saturday, September 13, 2025 for one last time to mingle, eat & dance under the sun (and enjoy the sunset)!

DATE: Saturday, Sept. 13 2025
PLACE: A park in central East Van (easily accessible by bus; details to be provided closer to the date)
TIME: 3PM - 9PM

We will send at least one more email with more details such as the DJ list & set times, and other important details. Stay tuned!

Please bring a potluck item if you wish. And your own plate / bowl / mug, if possible.

If possible, LABEL and write out the ingredients of your homemade potluck items for people with allergies & other dietary restrictions.

**ALLERGY ALERT: We have members of our community with severe, life-threatening allergies!**

One is deathly allergic to ANISE, FENNEL and LICORICE. please no: Indian Food or Chai (or other things containing those things; unless you are sure the ingredients are safe)

Another is severely allergic to PATCHOULI. Not usually found in foodstuffs, but please make sure you aren't wearing any, or any mix scents that contain it!

Also someone is life-threatening allergic to QUINOA and BUCKWHEAT! you *can* bring dishes including those things if they are on a separate table, with their own spoons, to prevent cross contamination to any other dish. and *labelled* as such, of course!

At the end of the event, please help out by disposing of any litter and/or helping with a LNT sweep. And be considerate about noise levels in the neighborhood on your way out.

Please email potl...@intentiongathering.org if you can help with setup or clean up.

Come! Bring a friend! Children welcome, if supervised.

facebook event page is https://www.facebook.com/events/1431373931960632  You must be a member of the Intention Gathering facebook group to view this page.  if you are receiving this email but are not a member of that group, and you want to see the FB page (for last minute updates, etc.) then send a join request to the Intention Gathering group https://www.facebook.com/groups/441299509312476/ and we will approve you as soon as we can.

INVITING OTHERS: if you have friends who you think would benefit from the Intention experience, or just from a pleasant day in the park with music, then yes you can invite them!  You can forward them this email, and any further ones about the event.  If your friends really want to join the FB event page, they certainly can, but they will need to join the Intention Gathering group https://www.facebook.com/groups/441299509312476/ first or they won't have permission to view it.


Please email potl...@intentiongathering.org if you can help host future potlucks at your place, or want to help out with the production of other potlucks or potluck / dance parties. 

LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT: We would like to acknowledge that the land on which we gather (Lower Mainland) is the traditional, unceded and illegally occupied territory of the Coast Salish peoples, including the territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) & mi ce:p kʷətxʷiləm (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

**Let's connect and party to celebrate the end of Summer**!!

Here is the more specific area that we plan to set up in.  It’s near the community centre, just east of the basketball courts, south of the playground and north of the softball diamond.

If for some reason we can’t set up in that spot, someone will post an update on this page.


Facebook posts an address based on the pin on the map, but we are not planning to be in a building.  We plan to be in the park.  Use this map and the directions we post.


There are two parking lots. The parking lot at Trout Lake Community Centre is definitely closer to our location, but sometimes it is totally full.  if you find that is the case, the other parking (in the South-East corner) always has room.


Better yet, bike, walk or take transit!


Bring your plate/bowl, eating utensils, cup, etc as we don't plan to bring disposables! Bring a blanket or chair if you want to sit.


See you there! ❤️🥳
