This is Suncrash. Its the second year for this one night camping festival and party held on the Saturday of the August long weekend on a family farm just out side Orillia. Its obvious the work that the amazing Kearey-Moreland family puts into this non-profit event in everything from the scandalously cheap food and beverage to the many stages and featuring killer Ontario acts to the super clean port-a-potty's.
The main stage featured acts like the ever popular locals Golden Dogs, Sadie May Crash (a sorta No Doubt circa Tragic Kingdom esque band) and Weyborne Project (dirty reggae beats) to just name a few. Each band did an incredible job getting the increasingly booze drenched crowd out of their seats and dancing.
For a chill time the Forest stage highlighted the acoustic styles of the many talented people floating through the few hundred attendees. Set in a overgrown apple orchard, complete with the need for 'watch for falling apples' signs, this small stage seemed to be designed to feel like a secret for those able to navigate the winding paths through the woods past a small pond and river. Not to worry if you couldn't find it on the first go however as there were plenty of willing guides amongst the many volunteers.
The night ended (or didn't) with a dance party tucked next pond, multi-coloured christmas lights were strung in the surrounding trees and a great camp fire provided a haven for those who didn't want the party to end but couldn't muster up a dance move. Always thinking of everything, the proper ingredients for smores could also be purchased for mere change. Aaamazing!
