Hey I should brew up something myself. What's the official policy on homemade beverages?

I like to make my own rocket fuel! :D Well at least I supervise.

Is there one?????

To my mind, just be sure you know what "methanol" and "wood alcohol" is -- then make damned sure there is none in your beverages. That's a horrible mistake that occasionally happens world wide, resulting in blindness and death. No joke.

Drinking-alcohol is "ethanol".

Certainly I know the difference well. Long rich family history of brewing odd concoction through the magic of distillation!

Didn't want anything confiscated, that we spent time making!

Oh dear. I would have guessed it was the "one eyed pocket snake" thing. Or maybe you are kidding? Either way, it is an important thing to know.

I write magazine articles about cars, and recently I did a story on a 1940 Ford bootlegger car in north-east Georgia. The guy's family has owned the acreage since the 1800s, and there are the remains of eight or ten huge stills in the woods around his house!

I do not know, but to my awareness there is no inspection of food and beverage containers for personal use. Lots of people prepare or repackage foods in advance for convenience, so odd containers are normal.

That said, if you operate a public kitchen or in any way give out food or perishable beverages like fruit juice to people outside your own camp and personal friends, you need to have a health permit and you are subject to inspections by the Nevada... whatever it is called... "department of restaurant kitchen sanitation". Info on BM web site.

Some of that stuff can really be rough and tingly. Funny you see something so clear like water then it's like you are swallowing fire. I guess something like that would be great to keep you warm in the desert though, drink enough you'll think you're at the beach!

Dont pay attention to anyone posting that has less then 100 posts to their name! Most of thems Virgins too...

Second anyone having over 100 posts to their name...if it seems kinda rude...thats called SNARK, most of it is not meant to be hurtful, just smartassness! heheheee

Although a greeters shift is fantastic speaking from good experience.
I probably wouldn't want to do it on my Virgin year.
Look for yourself as far as what is available to volunteer for.
There is a whole area designated to Volunteering on the HOME page.
Volunteering is AWESOME! You will meet so many people and you'll feel good doing it...! Nakedness is not a priority either...although that is fun too..(well 'cept for Wed. greeter...that really is naked! all day all night.

Keep in mind that the "warming" of alcohol is a matter of perception, and NOT real. Drunk people freeze to death, feeling cozy.

In BRC, it can get cold at night, but that's what big furry fluffy ostentatious costumes are for. An hour after the sun comes up, it's warm again.

I'm no teetotaler, but everything within reason, even at BM. We want to be able to return next year, and in good health.

I'd love to sample a sip of whatever tasty concoction you come up with!

Yes, they stage them at my camp where we insure they retain their pristine nakedness. After their stint at the Greeters stations and they get all caked with dust we run them through a body rinse and a good pat down to make sure they are ready for the next shift, and/or party. What ever comes first. :P
Body rinse and pat down? Sounds like that is the party!

Kidsville is an area of BRC when families with children tend to camp. I have no kids myself, but I gather that Kidsville is quieter, specially at night so children can get proper sleep, and I'm just gonn'a guess that some parents watch each others kids so the other parents can go out some evenings. Am I right?

10-4 Good Buddy :lol:

It's most def. not the Deep End. There's a burn barrel in the middle and at night its basically just like hanging out by the campfire. While we took out young-un out with us in the early evening to see the sights and let him check out the fire and art cars, we were mostly in camp in the late evening. We did watch our neighbors boy while they could go out. However, it must be stressed that Kidsville is not a baby-sitting service.
