GEAR STUFF FOR ADULTS HERE
What is COG?
Held at a clothing optional resort in the Californian sun, COG Weekend is a yearly vetted retreat for Gear Folk to come together and play. With daily demos and nightly parties, there's no shortage of opportunities for the community to bond.
We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we are serious about Consent and Safety. Before applying, read our Code of Conduct.
Two Sessions of COG?
Over the years, the COG community has grown to fill more than our host venue. It's amazing to see so much love, but COG was never designed to be such a big party. This event started as an intimate gathering of gear folk escaping the winter and relaxing in the desert sun together.
To re-kindle that magic, COG will shrink back down.
With the support of our amazing venue partner, COG Weekend will focus on onsite lodged attendance and be offered two weekends in a row to give everyone an opportunity to attend.
Q
Why did COG change to two weekends?
Our goal was to enable everyone to stay onsite, with the size of resort this was the best option. The size will also create a more intimate event, but the two weekends will still retain the amount of attendees. Our goal has always been an amazing & chill gear event with friends!
Q
Will there be any off-site hotel?
No, nor any COG event off site support such gear storage or rideshare credits.
