We are pleased to present the first annual WATER WOMAN on the long weekend of August 1st – 4th , 2008. This four day gathering on the south coast of British Columbia has set its intention to facilitate the celebration of: Water as Life, Unity Consciousness, and the Divine Feminine.

Water Woman welcomes all men, women, and children to join in this conscious gathering. Our location is on breathtaking 200 acres of pristine temperate rainforest, amongst giant glacier mountains stretching above a pure rushing river. A stretch of beach with sparkling sand and bright sun awaits us in the glorious Squamish River Valley.

This 200 acre new campground is clean, new, forested, and exclusively open to Event participants only. The site offers a soft sand beach along the pure Squamish River, nested in glacier mountains. It is truly powerful land with much to offer in inspiration and beauty. We will swim, dance, sweat, do ceremony, and celebrate in this paradise!
