not have community water facilities, but we will have a communal kitchen area/commissary/eating

(stoves, propane), nor will we have camp washing up facilities, so be sure to

font-weight:bold'>And one more thing that you’ll hear again before the event:
rebar is critical for securing structures on the playa. As I’m sure you
already know from memorizing our camp FAQ <a
href="http://www.campabovethelimit.com/faq.html">http://www.campabovethelimit.com/faq.html</a>
, there’s a section on securing your structures <a
href="http://www.burningman.com/preparation/event_survival/securing.html">http://www.burningman.com/preparation/event_survival/securing.html</a>
that is required reading for anyone with a structure other than a car, RV, or
trailer. During take-down last year, we had the dubious distinction of setting
the record for Costco Barn flying – ¼ mile. While it can be humorous to watch
a tent blow downrange until it’s caught on something – think along the lines of
Dorothy’s house in the twister – we’d prefer not to have that happen in our own
camp this year. For Costco barns, that means a minimum of four pieces of rebar
per barn, each of which is attached to the barn via a ratchet strap.<o:p></o:p></span></font></b></p>

is a very good question. We are encouraging individuals and the groups they camp
with within ATL (pods as we call them) to be self sufficient. Because of
limited volunteer availability, time and financial support we are unable to
build and maintain many common structures this year such as a communal evap
pond or communal kitchen space.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

email list exists to help you connect with your fellow camp members. Please use
it to reach out others in order to collaborate on projects like a shared evap
pond. I know there are at least two individuals who are building their own
mini-pond. If you are interested in helping them build something larger as a
shared resource please let the list know and perhaps you can all work together
to make something.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

water delivery team that deals with water sales and grey water disposal had a
reservation online and via Jack Rabbit Speaks announced months ago that
everyone should reserve by the end of July their water/waste needs. The service
is now over capacity, over booked and they have halted reservations.
Demand has been so high they had to announce that they will refuse flag down
service on playa by camps or individuals without an existing reservation. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><font size=4 face=Georgia><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Georgia","serif"'>There
are some common resources we are planning though. You have the option of
having access to electricity from the 25,000 watt generator which will be
powering camp. While we are asking that you pay for use of power to help cover
the rental and fuel expense it is a modest fee. Also, we will have a common
area which shall be large enclosed space intended for camp members and not the
public. This will be a place we can gather for meals, hide from dust storms,
get warm, relax, and have meetings.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
