Greeters` The Gate handles all camp, art, fire, electric vehicle, and generator check ins that have been registered before the event. Gate also checks tickets and provides wristbands and waivers.world outside of the gate!
Parking Greeters welcome participants with a wealth of affection and information in the realm of theme camps, activities, land orientation, volunteer sign up, and other knowledge to get you started. Step out of your car and give them a hug! They are ready to welcome you home.
Earth fairies These orange vested heroes will work closely with the rest of the site team to make sure your parking experience is like none else. They help you get around the property, to and from the lot, and off the land. They are also vital in case of emergencies!
Rangers Wuut! There are magical fairies?? These guardians assist your Leave No Trace efforts to protect the land and reorient Matter Out Of Place (MOOP). Donʼt have the MOOP Fairies hunt you down!
Sanctuary Rangers are mobile sources of event information, conflict resolution, and participant assistance. They are NOT police or law enforcement. We encourage you to report incendent to rangers if they arise. Rangers are the eventʼs helping hands. Be nice to them!
Fire Is everything getting to be a little too much? Are you disoriented or in other distress? Fatigued? Sanctuary consists of listener trained volunteers able to navigate challenging emotional psychic states so you get the most out of your experience.go visit them at HQ. Medical is for First Aid ONLY.
Guardians An important part of burning things is to make sure they donʼt burn you or other things unintentionally. The fire team monitors camp fires, the effigy burn, and the other fire effects and performances.
Stationed at key points along the edge of the property, Guardians keep you and the event safe from the big bad world outside of the gate!
PAGE8>>THEME CAMPS
Theme camps are a great way to showcase art and bring like minded individuals together.
Let us know what you want to plan to do so you can share it with all your new friends. We definitely want people to experience your camp. Be sure to tell Greeters when you arrive!
We would like to be sure that your art gets a respectable home that makes the event safe and enjoyable for everyone. If you donʼt plan on containing it in your camp footprint, let your Greeters or Rangers know, so they can help you with last minute placement. Donʼt assume a space is empty!
RESPECT YOUR NEIGHBORS If anyone becomes disruptive or threatening in any way, the organizers reserve the right to evict them from the premises.
Grounds for evictions are VERY SERIOUS MATTERS and include:
