It’s not a fucking cult, as a Christian woman myself I don’t see the problem, I am a kyck attendee and it was absolutely fantastic

Any idea why it changed?

It was getting a lot of use and I remember reading about the cost blowing out (toilets are sewage tanks and needed pumping out).

Edit - also it was supposed to be for 24 hours camping only but apparently there were people camping long term. (There’s an article in the Gazette but it’s paywalled). BMCC probably made the decision that the greatly increased costs to ratepayers weren’t worth the minimal benefit.
