Hesperia, CA
I am in Tucson now caring for my partner with stage 4 Cancer.
My good mobility scooter and honda generator were in the truck as well.
My Daughter was picking up my mail when she found the gate trashed and the lock on my tool shed broken as well, so all my tools are gone too.

Hello Fellow Burners. Tuesday night my Truck was stolen. One of it's most important functions was hauling out the infrastructure and medical equipment to loan out for Mobility Camp every year. If you see it, please call the cops. I will post here if it is recovered. https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-J-eniK...

Sounds like an awesome project! Be careful of a clear shell. The Playa is usually in the 90's and a clear, enclosed structure quickly becomes an oven! If your heart is set on a clear shell, plan to include a beefy air conditioning system. Take a look at our Mobility Camp Website (mobilitycamp.org) a...

Mobility camp http://www.mobilitycamp.org/ is the new website. There is lots of info on how to prepare your chair, (Both Manual and Electric) survival guide for those with mobility challenges, and the like. Yes, you can get a rental car licensed as a Disabled Vehicle with your state issued Placard a...

Yup! Without Dale and his Giant Head (Art Car!) We would not be where we are today! https://burningman.widencollective.com/thumbnail/5c1543fa-e263-4e0f-9130-d5ff935fcd24/av/300px/46681_23d95afe1f749ec.jpg?t=1530455548640&s=e93cdd5215cc61e54e33094a4f8d5796c79a81d5 He started everything :D Here we are...

You bet Sarge!
Do you know where you will be this year?

We will be at 4:30 in Center Camp Plaza this year.
Who will be our neighbors?

Can't wait!

Rat Lady

It can be done, but requires careful planning. Look at the Info for Mobility Camp (at mobilitycamp(dot)org.) Consider camping with us. We will have one Camper this year post bilateral knee replacement surgery (one at a time) so it is a possibility. I would recommend bringing a mobility scooter, for ...

Hello All, We will be Back in Center Camp again this year. We will have some new Art Car tours and of course our "Ohhhh Shiny!" tours, and the ARTery tours leaving from our Camp again this year. Our Obstacle courses will be up and running again as well (Come on, we dare ya)! We will have mobility eq...

Hello All! Mobility Camp is having a fundraiser to get (purchase and build) new equipment for our "OOHH Shiny" tours. It will enable us to serve more folks and hopefully continue our services on Playa for the next 20 years or so. We are about 70% there, but still need about $1,700. So if you know of...

We just had a small group cancel so we have a few spaces available. We are a Service Camp, so that means work! Check out the Camping with Mobility Camp http://www.mobilitycamp.org/?page_id=49 section of our website to see what all is involved. If you want to help provide a much needed service to Bla...

Mobility Camp Center Camp Plaza @ 7:30!

Who are our neighbors?:)

Rat Lady

They have gifted rides to our wheelies and other Mobility impaired folks. Truly an AMAZING experience for someone who normally sees the Playa from 3 ft high! The Ride Wrangler and pilots are amazing folks:) We are so grateful for all you do! Hopefully we will get a group out to you this year as well...

Glad to know it's not just Me:)

Rat Lady

I'm old school I use Paint.net. In the planning stages ,I use paper and repositionable double stick tape:)
it all works!
Don't forget your 12 ft wide fire road.

Rat Lady

Thanks all for thinking about us "Gimps:)" (and yes, that's one of those politically incorrect words) If you have any questions about accessibility, check out the "How to Be Wheelchair Friendly" http://www.mobilitycamp.org/?page_id=61 page on our website. If you still have questions, please contact ...

Are your yurts accessible? We try to keep a list of accessible activities:)

Rat Lady

Thanks so much!
I passed the info along

Rat Lady

Hi All,
I'm looking to get in touch with the ASL interpreters camp. I have been contacted by an interpreter who wants to volunteer with us. I know in the past there has been a theme camp and she would like to get in touch with them.

Thanks!
Rat Lady

Another thing to note if you are a Virgin Burner, or have been prescribed a new medication since your last burn. Look to see if it makes you "Sun Sensitive"! You can get a SEVERE Sunburn, even if you "never Burn", if you are taking meds that increase your sun sensitivity. That last thing you want on...

MOBILITY CAMP will be back! Somewhere around 7:30 in the Center Camp plaza. We will be providing our Art Tours (Wheelchair accessible) 4 times a day Accessible camping Public charging station for Medical equipment And of course our loaning out of Wheelchairs, walkers, crutches, Knee Scooters,a limit...

Since we have no parts really, we only see stuff on an emergency basis at this point. It just depends...If you are going to have one on site, stop by and see me with your location and I'll keep that tucked away for future reference, just in case we do need something:)

Rat Lady

Does Mobility Camp often run into situations where some small special-shaped plastic doohickey has broken and needs to be replaced for the equipment to work properly? Let's say brackets, bearing mounts, pieces of controller, etc? Most common is a charging issue, either a charger cord /power supply ...

It's actually having the huge stockpile of parts that would be needed...and having a mechanic who knows about all mobility equipment, both old and new that would be the biggest problem.
Anyone who would like to volunteer those things....talk to me:)

Rat Lady

Mobility Camp will be back at Center Camp Plaza 7:30.
Anyone going to be a neighbor?
If anyone in your camp becomes one of the walking wounded (Those pesky Failure to Fly injuries) come by and see what we can do to help them out.

Rat Lady

Mobility Camp is thrilled to be back in center Camp at 7:30, where we will be providing Wheelchair accessible Art Tours 4 times a day...possibly more. We will have possibly 3 vehicles that are accessible for tours and the major burns..stop by and sign up! Can you imagine yourself doing Burning Man i...

Yeah...and we will make sure there is at least one nice deep dusty spot! a stair or two..maybe a nice thick rug:)
Welcome to our world:)

Once again, Mobility Camp will be present on the Playa! So if you are looking for a way to contribute, have some physical limitations, or want to volunteer with us. Consider camping with us. We are a wheelchair accessible camp. With power available for medical equipment. Read the Camping with us sec...
