Re: 2017 Black Rock City Airport - Volunteer
I hope you get enough volunteers. I heard from the GLC that volunteer recruiting wasn't going very well. Personally, I don't look forward to waiting 12 hours in a line so that I can spend my days inside to help other people who can afford to skip the line. If volunteering at the airport got me a com...

Re: "Burning Man's Culture is in Danger"
Thank you, I stand corrected. Apparently you can earn a ticket by volunteering.
Volunteer recruitment is marketing. Maybe they should advertise the perks of volunteering then? Maybe change their marketing strategy instead of complaining how too few people are responding to the current one?

Re: "Burning Man's Culture is in Danger"
Come to think of it, the art camps that provide the fun to the event get DGS tickets. The volunteers who run the event do not. It's almost like the people in charge are artsy types who don't have a good mind for logistics.... (not to stereotype artists, most artists have to be organized to execute a...

Re: "Burning Man's Culture is in Danger"
I know I'm new here, but I have experience in other volunteer organizations. It seems like contributing to BRC as a volunteer of a theme camp can get you a DGS ticket. Wanting to contribute to BRC as a volunteer for the event itself gets you... spending Labor Day at home because you didn't get a tic...

Re: Getting to Burning Man from Europe = mission impossible?
Not to be an ass, but if you are stuck with a plane ticket and an RV rental you know what you have? A pretty kick-ass trip to the Western United States planned. Reno/SF are near Yosemite National Park and you could RV into there (note it also requires making reservations months in advance, but it's ...

Re: 2017 Ticket Waiting Room??
I inquired to the ticket department and this is the response I received: The sale begins at 12pm (noon) PDT. We will be opening the waiting room at 11:30am, but sitting in the waiting room doesn’t gain you any advantage over someone who clicks on the sale link exactly at noon. If you’re sitting in t...

"Letters from your Past" does this work?
Hi Eplaya I'd like your input or feedback on our idea. My friends and I are planning to come down for the 2017 event and we're deciding what we want to contribute. We're not really artists but we do have a few ideas. We are flying in and renting vehicles, so that imposes logistical constraints. We w...

What about turning off at Imlay and taking Lake Road? Similarly difficult?

There should be a sub forum for Bathroom and Hygiene
Just saying, I'm looking for a central place for all info on the subject of bathroom and hygiene, and I'm not finding it.
I haven't been to Burning Man before, and I can't find it written where and how you go to the bathroom.
