Perfect Place For Poly Play - 2013
The Perfect Place For Poly Play, also
known as the Four Peas, is PolyParadise's private retreat
for adult-centered activities.
PolyParadise is an Intentional Community and attracts a wide
range of people who share or desire participation in
non-monogamous relationships.
A part of being in such relationships involves expressing
intimacy with other participants. Four Peas is the space
provided in camp where such activities are natural and
acceptable.
Why have space like Four Peas at all? Why can't people just
use their tents for such activities?
PolyParadise is a relationship-building village and much of
village life is a shared experience. We build camp as a
group, we make and eat meals as a group, we share our hopes
and fears in seminars and discussion groups, and we even
wash together as a group! It's a natural progression to
share intimacy in the same way too. Not all people make use
of all of these activities while staying at PolyParadise,
but it is our hope people will make use of these tools to
further their Poly perspective, meet and be involved with
new people and share their Poly experiences.
Four Peas uses the interior of an enclosed 25' geodesic
dome, nicely equipped with beds and bedding, indirect
lighting and really cool wall and ceiling decorations. The
cover is wind and dust proof and has a zippered entrance.
The Dome is available for use 24/7 for the duration of the
event by all members of PolyParadise and their invited
guests. The space is not public nor open to the public. The
sole exception is invited guests.
From time to time the Dome will be used for organized
events that are Poly in nature and open to all Village
members. Because these events may not be overtly intimate in
nature, we ask regular, intimate use be temporarily
suspended.
The Dome is open to all camp members and all
activities between consenting adults is permitted. No gender
bias or exclusive use is allowed. Everyone has a right to be
playing in Four Peas, be it one person or a dozen. As we
have no rules against consenting adult's play style, enter
Four peas knowing activities outside your personal
boundaries might be occurring. Keep an open mind!
Please respect and honor people playing inside the Dome.
Often people invite others to join an activity and sometimes
not. You must ask first! This is a rule! If the answer is
"no" then take refusal with grace and style. If problems
arise, contact Tailfeather, Scotto or other camp elder.
Please keep the Dome neat and clean up after use. Trash
receptacles and used sheet containers are provided near the
table with safer sex supplies. If bringing shared supplies
then just leave on the table; If they are for your personal
use, clearly label items with your name. The Dome is not a
crash pad! Falling asleep after an activity is fine, but
find another place to set up living quarters! The Dome is a
no smoking zone. Please smoke outside.
