PREPARE FOR ZORTHIAN RANCH what to bring/what not to bring

SWIMMING & SUNNING There’s a pool for swimming and open areas for sun-basking. Bring a towel, blanket, lawnchair.  A few other water-related activities will take place around the ranch for recreational cooling off. The Echo Country Outpost is hosting a water slide. All-day passes for the water slide can be purchased for a two dollar donation.

SAFETY: LEAVE HIGH HEELS & HOOCH AT HOME  Guests are responsible for their own safety at all times while in attendance at Zorthian Ranch and en route to and from.  Some areas of the ranch are paved but be prepared to walk on dirt, grass, and uneven steps.  High heels are not a good idea.  No outside alcohol is permitted.  Do not bring weapons or fireworks.  Do not drink and drive.

BRING A FLASHLIGHT: The city lights and a few stars twinkle in the distance but the immediate area around you gets dark at night.

CAMPING Want to spend the night beneath the stars? You can’t stay at Zorthian Ranch but there are many campgrounds in the surrounding Angeles National Forest. Note that some places are first-come first-serve and an Adventure Pass may be required to park in the woods out there.

CHILDREN of all ages are welcome but parents/guardians must take total responsibility for their child’s safety and whereabouts at all times. Children will LOVE Zorthian Ranch and have a great time but the following rules are strictly enforced: No child 12 years old or younger is allowed in the pool area without a parent or guardian. No child 12 years old or younger is permitted on the water slide without parent/guardian supervision. No child should be left unattended at any time. Sharp, heavy, rusty, loose objects are on exhibit everywhere. You and your child will be asked to leave without a refund if the child is found playing with or on any exhibited objects, or if you fail to comply with all child safety rules. Parents will receive a copy of child safety rules upon arrival.

ADULTS This is a downhome affair. Be respectful as if it were your home. Be careful. Don’t drink and drive. Don’t fall down the hill. The New Los Angeles Folk Fest and its sponsors, donors, volunteers, workers and founders are not liable for anything that happens to you while you are on the property of Zorthian Ranch or en route to and from.  Sharp, heavy, rusty, loose objects are on exhibit everywhere at Zorthian Ranch.  Treat everything with respect.  You will be asked to leave without a refund if you are found playing with or on any exhibited objects, or if you fail to comply with any posted rules.
