Sober on the Playa: Anonymous Village
Hey, all -
I dug around four years ago about this time of year and found out that AV existed, and I knew then I was going to Burning Man. I've had a fantastic three years and look forwards to this fourth. What a fantastic community. We had well over 100 with us last year.
The info contained here is still relevant: http://eplaya.burningman.org/viewtopic. ... 75#p364869
You can still find a lot of info here: www.burnanon.org (though it needs a bit of updating.)
We're also on facebook.
PM me anytime.
See you in the dust!

Re: Sober on the Playa: Anonymous Village
Thanks for posting! I get asked about this every once in a while and have linked you guys, but I didn't know how current the info was. Glad to know this camp is flourishing.

Re: Sober on the Playa: Anonymous Village
Any suggestions for folks looking for meetings, but not a sober camp? The missus is newly sober, doing great, but is hoping to find some good meetings on playa.

Re: Sober on the Playa: Anonymous Village
The Hokey-Pokey people have meetings that you don't have to be a member of the camp to attend.

Re: Sober on the Playa: Anonymous Village
And, you don't need to be a "member", or camp with AV to go to the noon meetings held there. Cosmic meetings, simply cosmic.

Camping at Anonymous Village
Where is Anonymous Village?
False Idol near 6:00
Our shared facilities
(Huge) Meeting Tent
Hospitality Tent (Coffee 24/7)
Multipurpose Hexayurt
Solar Shower
Shame Shanty (tell your best drinking story and WIN A PRIZE!)
How do I join the camp?
Please contact Erin at: [email protected]
or communicate with her on Facebook
https://www.facebook.com/groups/50738475350/
Please donate to our Village: http://www.bombtom.com/ donate.html
We also love refugees! Even if you are camped elsewhere, and you decide it is too triggering, or you would just rather be with us, you can pack up and move in with us anytime - please check in at Placement
Note: You should NOT camp with us if you plan on using drugs or alcohol while at Burning Man (even if drugs and alcohol aren't your addiction). Anonymous Village needs to stay a safe haven from that influence. We are a clean and sober camp… period.

Re: Sober on the Playa: Anonymous Village
Yes, they are otherworldly/cosmic. Due to the location, it is so far from what "we" are used to. I found myself unable to speak. I am so grateful we are everywhere.
