I'll be there, camping at Hoverlandia (Burner express's free camping area @ 6:15 and I). We'll have a shade structure with a Canadian flag, come say hi! Picked up a couple shifts at Arctica because I really enjoyed my time there last year. But I also signed up for Gate and Perimeter, maybe I'll catch some illegals trying to sneak the border or hoping the fence. It's my 2nd year so hoping to apply for rangering next year. Or maybe I'll just go to Africaburn. My good friend went this year and said it was awesome.
I'd like to go to midburn one year. How did you already sign up for Artica shifts? Do you have any interest in camping with us at 315 and Center Camp? If so I could see about getting you in. We have unadvertised bathrooms, electricity, and quiet hours. Our camp gives preference to musicians, if you have anything you could contribute. Otherwise I could put in a good word. My tent is so large I've been seeking a companion.
You can sign up before the burn. You just need to pick “arctica “ in the volunteer questionnaire and you get an email with the scheduling website. There are a lot of volunteer stuff available already. I’m camping with my boyfriend and 3 good friends - and hoverlandia is not a bad place to be :) Besides, none of us are musicians. I think I used those secret bathrooms a couple times last year. The cleanest ones I’ve seen at the burn! I probably wasn’t supposed to, but the combo of good music and craft beer... made it an emergency. It was definitely one of my favourite spots to hang out too, so possibly we'll run into each other this year too. Or we could try to schedule a Hubski meetup. At 3, that is a 50% increase from last year!
I'll look into the volunteer opportunities, thanks for the heads up :) Ah, gotcha, wasn't sure if it'd just be you. The bathrooms are for everyone, there are just some that aren't advertised with the blue lights. That does result in them being the cleanest. Folks put locks on them, which I don't agree with. I'll give you the combination when I know it ;) Yeah I think I'll be hanging at the POC camp a bit this year with JackTheBandit. If they get their structure built I forsee a fiesta happening. I think thenewgreen and mk would be happy to know there will be a Hubski Burning Man meetup
