The GnomeFather Gomez asked some Gnome-Fest Veterans to assemble a list of ten things to remember not to forget, when you're packing up the old family truckster to head up to the big gnome round up on earth and here is what they've come up with...
Cale - Former Mayor of Gnome City
Booze with caffeine in it, stuff is illegal now so I hope you stocked up.
A fat bike, everyones got one now. if you don't have one buy one (or win one at gnomefest!)
a good costume (or no clothes) for the dwarfcycle death race.
co-ordination for hmmerschlagen
somewhere semi-comfortable to pass out.
things to eat, or edibles as it were.
Kindness, treat your fellow gnome festers well.
stuff to do in the woods at night
9. a camera to record the parts of the fest that should be recorded
10. your memory to record the parts that should not be.
Katy - GnomeWorld SuperModel and MORC Den Mother
1. Headlamp so you don't step on gnomes while you're stumbling back to your tent drunk.
The most obscure microbrew to impress all of your 2-wheel loving friends.
Glowsticks!
Full body armor for when the bike derby gets dirty.
Some sort of heavenly goodness to share with your fellow Gnomefesters.
Girls: a Go Girl or She Wee so we can show the boys we can do it better!
Any type of "paraphanelia" that you feel is appropriate. If you're not sure, bring it anyway, we'll decide for you.

Your alter ego, so it can stretch its wings a little.
Your original polaroid of the pyramid at gnomefest V to burn in the bonfire so it is lost for all eternity!
