We the Western Young Friends New Year's Gathering, seek to create a community of such love and spirit that takes away the occasion for using drugs and alcohol.
Our host facilities have policies of no alcohol or illegal drug use on their premises, and such use both violates their trust in our group, and exposes them and the gathering to potential liability.
We ask and encourage those who attend this gathering to come to be sober, and to not bring such substances with them. We expect Friends to not use recreation drugs or alcohol on the premises of gathering, and not to share them with others

Please detach this portion and enclose a check for $110 made payable to Western Young Friends New Year's Gathering.
