3:00 Neighborhood Camps

[Simon of the Playa]

I have a question for Trilo or Simon.

i am not an BMOrg member or moderator or have any association other than long time burner, so Trilo is the one to ask, not me...He's Got the Official LowDown.




i can only offer you what i know, and that is unofficial, at best.

we have had "Unusual Shapes" in the past at the various camps i have been with, usually it's a jog, or a slight "L" shape involved but i would not worry too much about it.

Hi all!

New to the board. Not sure where I'll be camping yet this year, but I'm really surprised to see that a millionaire camp got placed at 3:45 and Esplanade! I'm new to burning man...is this a common thing?

^^ this makes me laugh.

[trilobyte]

@WanderlustFlaneur - you do realize that's a joke, don't you?

[WanderlustFlaneur]

@trilobyte et al...

How could this be a joke? I thought Burning Man was about love and art, not money and advertising. I really wish someone would do something about them. Is there anyone I can contact? A happy hour sponsored by Cristal? Seriously??

Actually this is exactly the sort of info I was looking for - just people's experiences in the past with similar situations. Not really worried so much as just wanting to do a little pre-planning for our space as opposed to going in completely blind and being as modular as possible.
Your experience sort of jives with the bit of homework I've done (looking at past year's moop maps to see if there has been any consistency in camp shapes in the area we've been placed); not a lot of super weird shapes, mostly L's or slightly angled walls.
This is our first year running a placed theme camp so I'm just trying to get us all as prepared as possible in the short time we have.

Thanks for the replies and see you all in the dust!

[bedlamdoll]

WanderlustFlaneur, the camp is supposed to be satire, I'm sure. So you could say it's their art, and I bet if you drop by to check them out on playa, you can probably play along with the joke.

As for love...that's one possible experience. Some of us express our love a little differently, a little more abrasively, that kind of thing. Welcome, I hope you enjoy your time on the playa, and Fuck yer day.

S'mores and Amour is happy to be back again this year at 2:30 and Ballyhoo! Gather here at sunset for some deeeeeeeeelicious s'mores!

Oh, is anyone a fan of Doctor Who? Because a certain timelord might be stopping by...
Tardis Burning Man 2014 by ariannarice

Hiya Neighbors!

Midnight Ridazz Camp is at 2:30 and B this year as well! I spoke to one guy at your camp a bunch about the Tardis last year (of course, cannot remember his name!) I was so sad that the Pandorica didn't get finished due to the storm. My partner and myself are most definitely Whovians and would love to make it happen this year if need be.

See you on the Playa, we can fix yo bikes!

[Wigwam]

The Wanderers are at 3:15 and F this year. I'm going to be stopping by the millionaire camp, but I'm bringing my own playa dust, sprinkled with actual gold, diamond and rubies.

Shut up!


On another note.. I'm pretty stoked at reading all the camps in our area.. sounds like a great year to be on the 3 side. Did I hear something about a Canadian craft beer sampling? Sha-wing!

You heard correct! Swing by 2:45 and B and join us at the Canadian Cascadian Tiki Lounge for some frosty craft beers straight out of the Canadian pacific northwest as well as a variety of other delicious brews from Portland and Washington!

Greetings all! Pan here--

[mystikmike]

Helloo campers! [b]EBB and Glow[/b] village will be at 3:15 between Carny and Donniker. This is our first year as a village, but some of our camps are repeat offenders....

Come visit our many attractions, including:

VR Camp - participate in another other-worldy experience that is difference from the other-worldy playa world
Fire & Ice Lounge - libations, kindly comments and more, just for the asking
The Magic Lantern - shaped like a giant garlic clove, this is the place to sit back, have a pull at the hookah, and tell tall tales
Cranky & Sons Bike Repair - where you can learn to grok your bicycle in fullness. Blessed be the grease!
Blue Fox Studio - the finest in on-playa photography from the official photo dude for this year's Temple
Paperman's amazing Paper Mache art forest.

And of course, there are other unplanned and unexpected treats to be had. Come on in and set a spell!

The Art Model Camp provides a shaded place to do figure drawing, and/or pose for drawings, no experience necessary for either. Male and female models, 2-20 minute poses in 30 minute sessions, with some artist supplies available (sketch pads and pencils, charcoal).

Noon to 3 pm Monday through Sunday, with a bar of sorts.

We're located in the AEZ camp (3:30 and G - look for the dome and 20x20 shade structure).

Hey 3:00 Campers,
Our camp from last year didn't get placed this year so we are orphans looking for a new spot to make new friends and enjoy the playa together.

We have former campmates from last year who are staying with Pickled Monday at 3 & Plaza so hoping we can find something near them.

We are 5 guys, all super chill and nice, 2 of us from LA, 2 from San Fran, and one from DC. It's the first burn for a couple of the guys.

We have 1 RV (22 footer), 1 car, and 1 tent.

We'd be happy to contribute/clean up/join activities of any of your group's plans.

Thanks for considering, I'd be happy to chat with anybody if you wanted to prior to agreeing to letting us use your camp area.

Thanks,
Ara

Hi all, happy decompression! I have been kicking myself for not returning to a camp where I heard a very fun music set in the morning. I'm dying to talk with the DJ again and I forgot his name. I meant to go back and then got sick and soon enough it was time to leave and I didn't go back.

I am trying to find the camp name from maps online but can't locate any where the names are legible or even present. I'm almost positive the camp was between 2 and 3:00 on the Esplanade. It was a narrow little camp playing a melodic dubstep. It makes me want to.... thinking about it. Is there a list of camps on the Esplanade with their addresses? I need to find that DJ and be in touch with him. Feeling so sad now that I may never see him again.

To confuse matters, the camp MAY have been on 2:00 right near the Esplanade... but I am almost sure it was on the Esplanade, past the Celtic Castle camp. Can anyone help with some clues or anything?

Thank you thank you thank you

Hello Neighbors,
WMICC
Veggie Camp, back at 3:00 and J.
Gifting organic fruits and veggies.

[Ratty]

Hi Soul Patch. Welcome to 2015 over again. (Nope. No do-overs. What ever happened last year is on your permanent record.)

You posted on last year's thread.

Now get over to the 2016 thread and say it again.

BTW that is a great avatar. It looks just like you.

[tommythefool]

We'll be in the PolyParadise Village at 3:30 and Effigare.

Find us for living low-carb on the playa plus:

Thursday 5pm: Frozen Strawberries and Cream
Friday 5pm: More Frozen Strawberries and Cream

None of those pesticide ridden strawberries, either!

Always available for help on living low-carb or diabetic/Paleo/Atkins in the sugary world of Black Rock City. Look for the 38' post and flag!

[Molotov]

Just placed: 3:15 & E-- "The 'Burbs", a no frills-no services camp for participants affiliated with BRC Emergency Services Department (ESD-the yellow shirted folks). If you need help in the 3:00 sector, do not pass go, instead go direct to ESD Station 3 at 3:00 and C. Look for the big red cross! Black Rock Rangers Outpost Berlin is right across the street from Station 3 on the other side of 3:00 and C. One-stop-shopping for all your emergency needs!

[bigbluedoggy]

Maybe one of the mods should lock this thread.... just a thought. It's just sooo last year.
