Are you Watershed Warrior Ready?

Hey fellow 'Shedders!  The time has arrived! Check and double check your packing lists for the BEST live music festival weekend of the year!

The back-to-back country party (read more here) will be headlined by country superstars Eric Church, Jason Aldean and Keith Urban. The event will be held in George, Washington, at the Gorge Ampitheatre July 29-31 and Aug. 5-7. The venue at the Gorge boasts an amazing view of the Columbia River. Those of us attending Watershed this year will be a part of country music festival history as the Watershed Music Festival seeks to stamp it's own unique signature as the first ever country music festival hosting back to back weekends.

Here are the line-ups for both weekends. 

Weekend 1 line-up

Have you packed your bags with the essentials?  Let's check the list:

The Essentials:   Start with the must haves, your camping and festival passes, cash and debit/creditcards, ID, phone and charging devices.

Camping Gear:  Whether yo'u're RVing it, tenting it or transforming your vehicle into your weekend home, make sure you have everything you need to be comfortable.  Don't forget a pillow!  

Food and Beverage:  Food for grilling and quick grab and go items are essential.  Having a substantial breakfast is key to keeping you fueled for each days activities!

WATER, WATER, and lots more WATER, hydration is important for a successful Watershed weekend.  You might even want to have some Gatorade on your list!

Sun Gear:  You will need sunscreen, a hat, flip flops and of course the coolest sunglasses you own!  You might even want to have some bug spray just in case.  A spray bottle and/or fan comes in handy as well. 

Shower Gear:  Another pair of flip flops to survive the shower floor are important, along with a towel, your personal items and don't forget the body wash or bar of soap. Don't forget the toothbrush!

Handy extras:  A bag, backpack fanny pack or money belt is a necessity for carrying your essential gear around.  A watch in case your phone dies you don't want to miss your favorite artist!  Duct tape - because it can repair anything! A flashlight for finding your way when the lights go down (the honey buckets do not have lights!)  Oh, and have some extra toilet paper just in case. Ear plugs in case you want to try and get some sleep and ziploc bags because they are handy for everything.  Oh, and you might want to be prepared with your best hangover cure!
