You need essential staff? Electrical plumbing and cooks? With a mission contribution of $1400 (increasing $100/mo in June?) for warm showers flush toilets, food, water, medical, and a 110v power point for each 15sq.ft. tent spot. You will arrange rides to off site parking (which there is none, right? Somewhere else in the city where other people camp?) additional mission contribution schedule for larger space, higher power requirement. What are you charging for rental yurts? Are there any still available? And you have tickets for professional musicians interested in performing? Fascinating.

Yeah, the post sure has the appearance of “hiring the help”.
Don’t get me wrong, RootPile and non-unz music is precious … it just looks like the camp got a bit grandiose for its own good.
Mind you; $1400 + 2 hours a day on top of the ticket and vp… it ain’t all that bad for all the amenities.
I’d jump on it if they had Toto bidets on the flushing toilets. So refreshing.

Yes, but for their highest “mission contribution” I’d expect perhaps Rabelais’ satirical goose’s neck:
“But, to conclude, I say and maintain, that of all torcheculs, arsewisps, bumfodders, tail-napkins, bunghole cleansers, and wipe-breeches, there is none in the world comparable to the neck of a goose, that is well downed, if you hold her head betwixt your legs. And believe me therein upon mine honour, for you will thereby feel in your nockhole a most wonderful pleasure, both in regard of the softness of the said down and of the temporate heat of the goose, which is easily communicated to the bum-gut and the rest the inwards, in so far as to come even to the regions of the heart and brains.” (Francois Rabelais “Gargantua and Pantagruel.” Early 16th century)
Pickin’ and a grinnin’.

Hahahaha!
I actually read that when I was in high school many decades ago!
Brilliant!

I don’t know what would be worse, paying $1400 dues or having to listen to bluegrass for an entire week.
