BOHEMIAN
GROVE ENCAMPMENT
HIGHLIGHTS OF LAKESIDE TALKS OVER TIME
updated July 2003
The LAKESIDE TALKS at BOHEMIAN GROVE are conducted twice daily during the July encampment. They feature prominent men representing CORPORATE, FINANCIAL, MILITARY and POLITICAL elite circles. They provide a way to float ideas that often lead to public policy but are done without public scrutiny. Do "Weaving Spiders" indeed come to the Grove? YOU BE THE JUDGE!!! *
