Located on nearly 3,000 acres of land in Monte Rio, California, Bohemian Grove hosts a two week encampment with some of the most prominent men in the world. Among the constituents include artists, musicians, and businessmen.
The gathering includes an all-male membership, and guests have to undergo a screening process. After 40 years of membership, the men earn “Old Guard” status, providing them reserved seating at the daily talks.
Prestigious members who have served in the group include Ronald Reagan, Richard Nixon, and Edwin W. Pauley. Even earlier, members included author Jack London and George Sterling.
Membership was strictly limited because of the small size of facilities on the grounds.
