Does TEASE have a Dress Code ?
YES - wear a smile !
You MUST be fully clothed upon arrive, upon departure, on the entrance road, and in the front registration/office area. You must be clothed if you travel the ravine past the property line.
Any restrictions for people walking around nude ?
Yes, but only a few reasonable ones.
You MUST be fully clothed upon arrive, upon departure, on the entrance road, and in the front registration/office area, as well you must be clothed if you travel the ravine past the property line.
IF you are Nude, DO NOT SIT DOWN IN ANY CHAIR (or ANY surface you decide to sit your nude butt on) NOT YOUR OWN PROPERTY WITHOUT FIRST PUTTING DOWN YOUR OWN TOWEL. This is common courtesy at any event that allows full nudity.
If you are wearing a "thong", purpose of cleanliness and manners; your ass is considered NUDE (as far as sitting courtesy is concerned), so put a towel down before sitting.
No genital nudity (any time of day) immediately surrounding the Camp Food area - or at the Communal Thursday dinner.
No genital nudity at free morning coffee or the Monday continental breakfast (if your thing dangles near my food or morning coffee it WILL be cut off - knife play rule be damned !). Those who come to Morning Coffee 100% nude will not be welcome for coffee again while at camp.
Where can we smoke ?
ONLY - on your camp site or designated smoking areas (we will set a couple of these up around camp for your convenience).
NO SMOKING; in Play Areas, Workshops, Xploration, Special Events, on the roads, in the bathrooms, showers, or at the covered pavilion.
You MAY smoke ONLY; on your camp site (or a friends with their permission), and at posted designated areas.
The reason for this is - we are in the great outdoors; July can be VERY hot and dry in Ontario, and we wish to keep the camp grounds clean and accident (fire) free. Please properly and safely dispose of your cigarette butts to not to create a mess and to prevent fires - and the world is not your ashtray.
Anyone found tossing butts on the ground will be asked to leave with no refund. Please ONLY put butts in your fire ring, or in a safe butt container - thank you.
Why is there a "NUDITY LINE" on the Site Map ?
As of -2010 Campsite; we no longer have a nudity line.
You MUST be fully clothed upon arrive, upon departure, on the entrance road, and in the front registration/office area, as well you must be clothed if you travel the ravine past the property line.
IF you are Nude, DO NOT SIT DOWN IN ANY CHAIR (or ANY surface you decide to sit your nude butt on) NOT YOUR OWN PROPERTY WITHOUT FIRST PUTTING DOWN YOUR OWN TOWEL. This is common courtesy at any event that allows full nudity.
If you are wearing a "thong", purpose of cleanliness and manners; your ass is considered NUDE (as far as sitting courtesy is concerned), so put a towel down before sitting.
No genital nudity (any time of day) immediately surrounding the Camp Food area - or at the Communal Thursday dinner.
No genital nudity at free morning coffee or the Monday continental breakfast (if your thing dangles near my food or morning coffee it WILL be cut off - knife play rule be damned !). Those who come to Morning Coffee 100% nude will not be welcome for coffee again while at camp.
Can I bring the Kids ?
Sure.
If they are over 18 years old and they have paid and registered. We have a few families in our local Community, and those who are kinky and related are VERY welcome at TEASE.
Please note: Visitors are NOT ALLOWED at TEASE.
Can I bring my Pet ?
No
We can only accommodate HUMAN Pets at TEASE .
No real dogs, no real cats, no real snakes, no real goats, no real birds, no real spiders, no real chickens (even if it is your sexual partner - LOL), no real sheep, even no real horses please. NO NON-HUMAN PETS AT ALL.
Dark Angel is leaving his - 2 dogs and cat at home - so you have to leave your pets at home as well.
Stuffed (dead or fake) pets are welcome; you can also bring your inflatable date (discounts available for blow-up date registration - LOL).
An exception to this rule is - Registered Service animals (for example - seeing eye dogs). Owners are expected to clean up after these service animals and keep them restricted to their camp sites and must be leashed AT ALL TIMES. ONLY seeing eye dogs are allowed to the group events (other service animals such as Emotional Service Animals, are not allowed to group events or in Workshops or play areas). We also ask people to bring their Service Animals ONLY IF REALLY NEEDED.
Why a Box of Wine ?
Ahhhh good question.
There is 1 HUGE rule for this Camp Ground; ZERO GLASS CONTAINERS - ZERO TOLERANCE.
No glass (the many exceptions are listed below) will be allowed past the front gate. Coolers and trunks will be searched at the gate, so plan ahead and bring cans, pre-mixed drinks, or empty water bottles to empty that bottle you had to go buy Saturday afternoon in town (at the gate).
The Camp Owner has approved allot of exceptions, BUT, if it is not SPECIFICALLY listed as approved - your Glass will be a VIOLATION.
Anyone caught with glass risks being ejected from the Camp - no refunds. (they are quite serious about this one).
Another recommendation is a small keg of beer, you will have to provide your own plastic cups and your own keg spigot, and remember that you will have to keep it chilled (I am told opened kegs are only good for a day un-chilled).
Lastly: remember to LABEL your consumable after you transfer it to a plastic bottle, you don't want a 2L plastic bottle of your favorite vodka (mistaken for water) accidentally used to help put out your fire at 2 am.
Why the "NO GLASS" Rule ?
That is one of the Rules of the Camp Ground - and are NON NEGOTIABLE.
Glass will be (the minimum) confiscated, and you may be ordered to leave for not respecting the Camp rules (no refunds). No one is exempt from this Rule, no one receives special treatment, and interpretations will not be allowed.
Inside tents or trailers are not "Rule FREE Zones", glass dishes, cups, drinking glasses etc - are NOT ALLOWED.
I have received a number of questions so far (some serious, some goofy) - asking for clarification on this Rule. Remember that this is a Camp Owner Rule - and a condition of our renting of this PRIVATE PROPERTY.
Suggested containers are - cans
- As we are on private land - you may wander with your beverages anywhere on the site - with the exception of into the play area.
Remember to LABEL your consumable after you transfer it to a plastic bottle, you don't want a 2L plastic bottle of your favorite vodka (mistaken for water) accidentally used to help put out your fire at 2 am
please allow me to expand with some examples I have received here.
Glasses (vision or sunglasses) - OK, bring to camp and use
Glass cupping set - IS OK (I asked if this can be allowed and have been told - NO PROBLEM) - OK, bring to camp and use
Parts of our trailer - physical parts OK (cupboards, glass tables, windows, shower doors etc.), extras like glass dishes are NOT OK
Glass Martini Mixer Set - NOT OK (please leave at home)
Coleman Lantern - OK, just no drunken Coleman Lantern fights please
Glass Chess Set - NOT OK (please leave at home)
Glass Dildo - OK - actually most are actually Pyrex so they are already ok (actual glass ones - OUCH, use at your own risk)
Violet Wand - IS OK (I asked if this can be allowed and have been told - NO PROBLEM)
Light bulbs - OK (but it works best if you have a powered site)
Beer Bottles - NOT OK (please leave at home) remember ONLY PLASTIC is allowed into Club Tiki
Make-up mirror (in a tent or at the showers) - OK
Make-up - OK - bring to camp and use
Bottle of Wine - NOT OK (please leave at home) transfer it to an empty plastic bottle
Medicine in glass vials (such as insulin) - OK, as is any medication dispensed to you in a glass vial.
Bottle of anything - (ketchup, relish, water, vinegar, wine, juice, beer, whiskey, etc.) NOT OK (please leave at home - or transfer to plastic before entering the gate)
Glass Coffee Carafe (Coffee Decanter/Pot/Thingy) - OK (we didn't want a riot - LOL)
Coffee Mug - Glass not ok - although most are earthenware or ceramic or Pyrex which are all OK
Glass eye - The person with a glass eye is QUITE welcome. The rude idiot who asked something so stupid is not welcome - please leave all rude idiots at home
As you can see - the NO GLASS Rule is firm; but only on the SPECIFIC things made from glass that could be used in a drunken fight or WILL end up broken on the ground for some poor person (you or I) to cut our feet on. The Camp Owners have been more flexible for us.
Please feel free to e-mail your "what about" questions - [email protected]
Please remember - we as a Community are quite educated about LIMITS and respecting them - Anyone risking our relationship with the Camp Owners will not be treated lightly.
EXPECT coolers/vehicles to be 100% inspected upon arrival (and re-arrival) at camp - please be ready before you leave home (everything in plastic) and don't hold up the line.
A small thing we have to live with, well except that we don't get frisked too. I am willing to later frisk those ladies who wish it *Innocent Smile*.
ANYONE INTOXICATED - WILL BE REFUSED ENTRANCE OR EXIT, once the Camp gate is closed and locked for the night. If someone DRUNK manages to leave camp after the gate was locked - will be reported to the OPP (Ontario Provincial Police); WE ARE SERIOUS.
Why the strict rules on Knife play ?
The Camp grounds has decided that they have suffered their very last drunken knife fight - and I can't blame them. I think the Camp Owners have been very nice to modify their NO KNIFE rule for us in this matter; lets show them we can be trusted to respect it.
They have been VERY flexible in allowing us to have knife play allowed at Play Areas - ONLY. And YES, this DOES mean that you are not allowed to do Knife Play on your own Camp Site - that is the rule (no exceptions).
If someone is caught with a knife out (and you are not in the middle of eating steak) the knife will be confiscated, tagged, and returned to you when you leave Camp.
BTW, if you are on your camp site eating steak, and you are using a huge fricken knife (to antagonize the Camp Owners Rules); it will be confiscated and you can use a butter knife on your steak for the remainder of the event.
This rule extends to ALL bladed weapons (sharp or dull); such as swords, knives, scalpels (even disposables), letter openers, pocket knives, throwing stars, as well as secret Justice League bladed weapons.
On a side note: no guns, not even replicas allowed - period.
Why can't I bring an axe ?
This is another Camp Site Owners Rule.
The Camp sells pre-cut Fire Wood, to a usable size so that YOU DON'T NEED AN AXE. Again, they have had to replace allot less picnic tables since starting this rule. If you bring your own Fire Wood, make sure that is is in usable chucks - as you will not be able to use an axe at TEASE.
This rule INCLUDES all the family of axes - like hatchets, war axe etc
I have a friend who gave himself a self inflicted axe-foot injury a few years ago - NO this rule was not made for you bud ,,,, it is one of the Camp Owner Rules - and was a NON-NEGOTIABLE rule in our rental contract.
What else can't we bring ?
Bad Weather or an Attitude
We are here for FUN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why can't we park our vehicles on our camp site ?
Because that is the rule. ONE VEHICLE PER CAMP SITE IS ALLOWED - ONLY ONE.
NO TRAILERS (unless you are sleeping in it) ON THE CAMP SITES (no boat trailers, storage trailers, or equipment trailers (TEASE trailers excluded).
Each camp site gets ONE vehicle allowed to stay on site; the people there have to agree - if 2 or more are found on a site for longer than drop-off, pick-up (no not an hour) - then that camp ground is told (by the Captain DM) that they are not allowed ANY vehicles on site for the remainder of TEASE (zero tolerance, that is the rule).
You can all decide to keep the biggest vehicle (like a van) for such storage, or a group extra tent (every couple bringing a spare tent is just silly and there wont be room for that), or just have a good solid cooler and put something heavy on it.
Vehicles (unless it is an RV or camper van - and you are sleeping in it) are NOT allowed to be parked on the camp sites - no exceptions. CAMPERS (vehicles you sleep in, not vehicles attached to campers) do NOT COUNT as the One vehicle for that Camp Site (they are ignored). For example - a camper van would not be counted (because it is where someone is sleeping).
We want to keep the camp clean and clear of ALL (non pony) vehicular traffic - as well driving your vehicles around camp is not allowed. Please also do NOT drive all over camp on arrival to say hello to everyone, or on departure when saying your goodbyes. Camp speed limit is 10 km/h
Arrive, unpack, then park your vehicle in the designated parking area. Roads are to remain clear for foot, pony, bicycle, or Staff Golf Cart traffic ONLY.
The ONLY exceptions will be Automotive Campers (pick-up camper or motorized camper), the Camp Staff Golf Cart, and motorized wheelchair/scooters.
The Camp road is VERY dusty - please drive no faster than 10 km/h, or else EVERYONE will be cussing you for making 1/2 the camp eat dust for the next 10 minutes.
Campers certainly are allowed to - come and go - from camp (day trips for shopping), just PLEASE do not drive around camp.
Can we take pictures ?
Yes - and NO, NO, NO, NO, and only if, and NO, NO, no, no, no, no, and HELL NO.
YES - YOUR SITE + PERMISSION FROM 100% (IN THE PICTURE, including neighboring camp sites). There will also be a TEASE Camp Group Picture taken (as there was for each year) for those who WISH to participate, which will go onto the TEASE Web site. You may copy any picture from the TEASE Web site, but please do not publish it on ANY web site, or share them with people who did not attend (yes I know they can see them online too, but this is a COURTESY to your fellow TEASE Members). You may e-mail [email protected] to obtain copies of any pic online (they are going to be non-downloadable, as soon as I learn how to do that - LOL)..
You may ONLY use a camera on your own camp site (or on a friends with permission) - and ONLY if all people in the picture (this includes the background) are aware and give permission. Anyone caught taking pictures of others will have their cameras (or cell phone camera) confiscated - and the medium erased, and your camera returned to you AS you leave TEASE (yes - it will be CONFISCATED until you leave TEASE). No cameras allowed ANYWHERE off of your campsite (except where allowed - see below).
Violators of this rule may be evicted without refund - and MAY find themselves banned from TEASE and TEASE Affiliated events. Please respect your fellow campers.
Any camera brought INTO Club Tiki or the Shenanigans Play Site - will be immediately confiscated.
- NO PICTURES in the play Area
- NO PICTURES in the Social Area
- NO PICTURES on the Road
- NO PICTURES in the Bathrooms
- NO PICTURES at the BDSM Games (see '08 change below)
- NO PICTURES at the Pool
- NO PICTURES at a Workshop
- NO PICTURES at morning coffee
- NO PICTURES at the Snack Shack
- NO PICTURES at the Xploration
- NO PICTURES of people walking BY your Camp site
- NO PICTURES of people on adjacent Camp sites
get the hint?
Slight changes starting in TEASE 2008 & beyond
-
BDSM Games - you MAY take pictures ONLY of your partner (or have taken of you and/or your partner), ONLY on the front green, ONLY not during an event, ONLY directed AWAY from the camp grounds. NO Spectators may take ANY picture. There will be a group "BDSM Games" picture taken (Before or After) - ONLY of those who wish to be in the picture - for the TEASE Web Site.
If picture taking becomes a problem it will be immediately banned for future TEASE events.
NEW FOR 2010 - I have a couple people who have been "nagging the FUCK out of DA" to be a future Official Photographer - these type of annoying people will not be considered,,,, DA HATES to be nagged.
What if we DO have a bad Attitude ?
Please do not attend TEASE
I suspect that the Camp Staff will escort you off the Campground and tell me about it later. Remember they are used to 4000 drunken university students each weekend; they are VERY friendly and easy to get along with - but they don't take crap from anyone.
Possible Example:
A - you get caught with glass (a bottle of wine you failed to transfer to a plastic container before entering the park); it WILL be confiscated (and not returned)- situation over, we all go back to enjoying ourselves (but you go thirsty).
B - same as A, BUT you give attitude (or become an amateur lawyer) during this time; you WILL be immediately evicted without refund - they will not argue or debate with you. Those intoxicated will be ordered to remain on their camp site and leave by 10 am the next morning (the Front Security Gate will remain locked and closed for anyone intoxicated - in or out). Anyone continuing to give attitude will be dealt with by the local Police who are quite familiar with the Camp Ground Staff.
Camp Staff has no Attitude - talk about a bunch of laid back fun people. We are extremely happy to have formed this very good relationship with the new Home of TEASE.
"CAMP GROUND Rules" what is the whole list ?
Good Question, let me list the Camp Owners Rules.
These are the RULES that are part of our contract with the Camp Ground Owner. TEASE Event Rules are listed on the TEASE Event Rules Page (linked from the Welcome Page)
-
NO GLASS (confiscated or person ejected - at Camp Staff discretion - SEE APPROVED LIST OF GLASS IN THE TEASE FAQ)
-
NO ATTITUDES (immediate ejection from camp - no refunds)
-
NO NOISE OUT FRONT PAST 11PM (we can still swim, play pool, have fun - just quietly)
-
NO LOUD NOISE ANYWHERE IN THE CAMP GROUNDS PAST 1AM
-
NO AXES(Axes and hatchets and anything that resembles)
-
NO PETS (except the Human kind)
-
NO KNIVES (they have adjusted this for us - see above question on Knife Play)
-
NO VISITORS (no one gets past their gate without a wrist band - as a registered guest)
-
NO ABUSE TO THE CAMP GROUNDS (don't singletail the trees)
-
NO DAMAGE TO THE TREES (no spikes, no cutting branches off, no carving into your name, etc etc etc)
-
EVERYONE PAYS THE $5 GARBAGE DEPOSIT (at the end of camp bring up your garbage and get your deposit back)
-
FRONT GATE IS LOCKED AT 11 pm AND OPENS AT 8 am - you can get in and out (unless you are intoxicated) - just not easily
-
Oh ya, I almost forgot NO HUMAN OR ANIMAL SACRIFICE (they told me a story behind this, I won't share it)
-
NO FIREWOOD BROUGHT TO CAMP (you MUST purchase wood from them)
TEASE Event Rules reflect and enforce these Camp Rules - they are NON-NEGOCIABLE - CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS for our rental of the entire camp grounds; so expect DM's, SM's, TEASE Staff, Volunteers, as well as Camp Staff to enforce them.
Does the Camp have a Bar ?
No.
That is one reason why you can attend camp if you are 18 (18 yr olds still aren't allowed to drink alcohol at camp - that would be illegal i.e. violates the TEASE rules). Anyone under legal age to drink (19 in Ontario) caught drinking alcohol (violating TEASE Rules), will be restricted to their camp site for the balance of that day - and evicted the next day. Anyone caught giving alcohol to someone under 19 years old (violating TEASE Rules), will be restricted to their camp site for the balance of that day - and evicted the next day.
Since we have rented the entire campgrounds - it is our home, and you can bring your own and enjoy your beverages (remember NO GLASS) anywhere.
All Campers are expected to Drink Responsibly - if you make an ass out of yourselves, you might be asked to go home the next morning when you are sober. If you are asked to remain on your camp site for the remainder of the night - that is DA giving you a 2nd chance - take it.
ANYONE INTOXICATED - WILL BE REFUSED ENTRANCE OR EXIT, once the Camp gate is closed and locked for the night. If someone DRUNK manages to leave camp after the gate was locked - will be reported to the OPP (Ontario Provincial Police); WE ARE SERIOUS.
Remember - No Glass AND No Attitudes Allowed!
