Join the online Town Hall gathering on Saturday January 27th at 10:00 to 11:30 AM Pacific time.

Calling all Burners, whimsical thinkers, tea party enthusiasts, creative visionaries, and radical do-ers.

We are turning Center Camp UPSIDE DOWN - Let’s flip the switch. It’s time to lean away from calling it a camp. It’s our downtown central plaza. Let’s treat it as such and make the Center of the City THE place to be.

This year was a ghost town and the Cacophony party ended early.

I agree with coffee. The BORG could set up a power plant like they have at the walled and rent a cop guarded commissary that would be public and visible, to run the coffee.

The other problem is navigation, the letter streets do not go to center camp, they detour into a maze of concentric rings.

Burning Man is not supposed to be easy and when you get lost you find so many new things!

Place the Orgy Dome in the middle, coffee shop on the periphery, call it done.

Way overthinking things …

Bring coffee back, but only espresso or americano. I stopped going when being around people making a coffee order that took 30 seconds to explain their choice made me feel unsafe. :evil:

I stopped going when a volunteer worker came back to camp screaming out loud "I just made $35 in tips!"
