Event Policies

DPPD Welcomes Media
 
   Durham Pagan Pride Day is a media friendly event.
 
   As a public event held in a public place, our attendees acknowledge that photos or
   video of themselves may be taken by media for the purposes of showcasing the
   event.
 
   That said, we request that media personnel respect the wishes of attendees who
   may wish not to be interviewed, or who may wish not to be recorded during the
   performance of ritual observances. When in doubt, just ask the individual or
   the leader of the workshop / ritual / performance you wish to record about
   their preferences.
 
   We welcome media personnel who wish to document our event and ask that you
   say hello at our Resource Table. We will be happy to facilitate any interviews
   you wish to do and to point out photo opportunities.
 
No Alcohol
   As we do not possess an alcohol permit, we ask that people refrain from its use
   in any way (ingestion, ritual offering, etc.).
 
No Drugs
   We ask that the laws of this land be respected while on these premises. Anyone
   found to be in possession of, or under the influence of, illegal substances will
   be asked to leave the premises.
 
Bladed Ritual Tools
   Bladed ritual tools such as athames and swords are not welcome at our event.
   While we respect everyone's right to practice their religious beliefs, we ask that
   you store your Sacred Tools safely and securely outside of the park.
 
No Pets
   Although it is difficult to be separated from our furry friends and familiars we ask
   that, with the exception of working animals (e.g. seeing eye dogs), animals be left
   in the comfort of their own homes.
 
Mind the Event Assistance Team (E.A.T.)
   The members of the Event Assistance Team are there to ensure the safety and
   well-being of all those in attendance. They are identified by the wearing of a blue
   arm band. We ask everyone to comply with their instructions while on the
   premises. Failure to do so may lead to eviction.
 
Responsibilities & Liabilities
   Durham Pagan Pride, its organizers, vendors and/or volunteers are not
   responsible for any stolen or damaged property.
 
   Small children must be attended at all times. Care and safety of children
   remains the responsibility of their parent(s) and/or guardian(s).
