Covert Operations

Ten Spiritual Tonics

Stop worrying. Worry kills life.

Covert Operations
Begin each day with a prayer. It will arm your soul.


Control appetite. Over-indulgence clogs body and mind.


Accept your limitations . . .


Don't envy. It wastes time and energy.


Have faith in people. Cynicism sours the disposition.


Find a hobby. It will relax your nerves.


Read a book a week to stimulate imagination and broaden your views.


Spend some time alone for the peace of solitude and silence.


Try to want what you have, instead of spending your strength trying to get what you want.

Huge Success Everyone! Thank you to all the sponsors, the venue, all the hard working staff and volunteers, all the bands and crew, all the vendors and all the guests. We all did our best to throw the best show possible. Please know that we appreciate all the help we have received. None of this would have happened if it were not for the continued support and volunteered time from all of you. Let us enjoy the rest of the summer and we will start talking about next year's Juneboreee! in the winter time. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact us here!
