Participant Faire Apr 27, 2013

[Rubber Tramp]

Does anyone have any further info on the participant faire this year (April 27th) at the BMHQ?
I got an email saying noobies welcome and it would be a good, informational resource event
So I booked a ticket to SFO today (I live in Vegas) ... no idea where i'm gonna stay for the night
or what to expect but was hoping to connect with somebody on here about it ... =)

Welcome to ePlaya! Great nickname.

If you don't find anything else, you could stay at the Green Tortoise San Francisco (google it).

You might also be able to network on the SF regional list.

NOOBIE? . . . NOO PROBLEM!
Orientation for BURNING MAN Virgins
11am - 1pm Presentation with Q&A - 8th floor

- Hints and Tricks
- Travel & Transportation

I'd also second Savannah's recommendation to join the regional group to find out about other events in the area. Offhand I think that Distrikt (big daytime bar camp) is doing a club night fundraiser in the area, details would be in the newsletter or send me a PM and I'll message you the info.
