Event overview
Join Cumberland Flux for a relaxed afternoon at Rocky Gap State Park on Saturday, May 30. We’ll be gathering in Elm Loop sites 136 & 137, with an additional adjacent site just across the road, giving us a little extra room to spread out and settle in naturally.
We’ll have the grill going, a campfire going, water on hand, and a limited number of hot dogs and S’more ingredients available. You’re welcome to bring something to cook for yourself, bring a snack, or simply show up and enjoy the space.
We’ll be spread across a couple attached sites, so there’s space to move around, find a quieter spot, or settle in wherever feels most comfortable.
This is a low-pressure Flux gathering, so there’s no big agenda and no awkward structure to keep up with. You can join the conversation, tend the fire, grab something to eat, or just spend a little time outdoors with good people in a beautiful place.
Sometimes a good event is simply a good place to be. That’s the idea here.
A relaxed afternoon outdoors

This is the kind of event where the setting does some of the work. The fire is going, the grill is going, and there’s already a place waiting for you when you arrive.
You can join the conversation, help with the fire, have something simple to eat, or just spend a little time outside with other people who are glad you came.
