Every July, approximately 2,500 of the most powerful men in America gather at a 2,700-acre private campground in the redwood forests of Northern California for two weeks of exclusive, invitation-only retreat.

WHY THIS MATTERS The Bohemian Grove is not a conspiracy theory — it is a documented, annual gathering of the most powerful men in America at which major policy decisions have been discussed and shaped outside of any democratic process. The Manhattan Project was reportedly conceived at the Grove. Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan negotiated their political futures there. When the people who control your government, your media, your banks, and your military gather in secret for two weeks every year, you have a right to know what they discuss — and why they insist on keeping it from you. 2,500 ANNUAL ATTENDEES 2,700 ACRES IN SONOMA COUNTY
