MT. HOOD OREGON: July 24th to 27th
(Registration is only $25)
We’ve all felt it at one time or another and every time we are together we feel it a thousand times stronger. This is the fact that we all are family in the most real sense of the word.
Summer is near. The time for barbecues, camping outside under the brilliant stars, and meditating in the quiet moonlight. This summer is bringing something special, the very first Higher Balance Summer Gathering!
This is an event that was created with the intention for us all to have the opportunity to come together and be amongst our fellow Navigators in a very casual, laid back setting.
Nestled at the base of Mt. Hood there is a place that is perfect for campers of all types. For the rugged, we have tent sites available. For the more comfort minded and mobile, there are RV sites. And, for the ultra deluxe “I don’t go camping unless there is a full kitchen, bathroom and bed at my disposal” camper, there are luxury cabins that were made just for you! So, whatever your outdoor experience, there are accommodations that will fit your needs.
We will be holding activities that include but are not limited to: Group Meditations, Marshmallow Eating Contests (chubby bunny anybody?), Hot Dog cook-offs, Star Gazing, old-school dimensional activities like Rock Clacking, Dimension Walking, Nature Hikes, Movie Time, Story Time, Sharing good Conversation with Fellow Navigators, and possibly… just possibly we might be able to squeeze a Q&A session out of Eric Pepin (This can’t be guaranteed but we do have the lecture hall on reserve just in case). But, even if we don’t get a full blown lecture, there is an Olympic sized swimming pool which Eric Pepin has eluded to providing us with a demonstration of his World Famous Phoenix Splash!!! Hold onto your suits (literally) because it is INTENSE!!!
It’s a time of fun and reflection. A time to meet other people on the same journey and learn from one another.
If you have a special talent, please consider bringing whatever props you need to the gathering and perform. Remember, you are with fellow seekers. We all know the ups and downs of this human experience so even if it’s a stupid human trick, like licking the tip of your nose, we want to see it! Also, for the late nights around the campfire it’s always nice to have a little atmosphere music… (hint hint musicians).
So, pack your bags, grab your compass and floppy hat and get ready to join us July 24th-27th at Mt Hood Village for this one of a kind event!
There are a couple of things to consider while getting ready for the event. If you have friends coming in from other parts of the world you may want to coordinate with them so you can share a ride to the campground, food for the weekend, and your accommodations once you get there. Whether it be a tent site, RV, or cabin you can have a maximum of six people per site.
Please call Higher Balance and register with us before you reserve your accommodations at the village. There is only a $25 registration fee for this epic three day event! Call in to 1-800-935-4007 or 503-646-4000.
Now, in order to reserve your accommodations you need to speak directly with Mt Hood Village by calling either 503-622-4011 or 800-255-3069 and tell them that you are with the Higher Balance Group. Most importantly give them the code 6415. By giving them this code they will ensure that you will be placed near other Higher Balance Participants.

We highly recommend that you reserve your accommodations as soon as possible because the summers in Oregon are unparalleled and outdoor activities are the mainstay of our lifestyle! This means if you don’t act soon the spots will fill up and there won’t be room!
