Also, the music was great. So, it was a fabulous all ages event that adults and kids could enjoy, but also helped to embody many of the principles in a way that children could understand. | Gold Bikini Happy Hour at Rat camp. | Watching my son in a cuddle pile with other kids during the effigy burn. | Probably? (My car didn't have much space for extra things.... More likely to help pay someone who could carry it in for me?) | Probably not? | That could be cool. | Fabulous! Although I do feel like I missed a lot and wasn't able to participate in some ways I might otherwise, because was so focused on ensuring my son had a good time. | As much as I loved the all ages, kid-friendly event, I did feel that some parents occasionally took an attitude of "the community will take care of my child" that I didn't think was appropriate. While letting children explore on their own is important from time to time, I didn't think that everyone followed the rules set forth in the Survival Guide that outlined parental expectations.

My suggestion is that after 1 AM the music should be played at a normal and health decibel. Most of the time it seemed that the ground vibrated from the bass. I know that the family had trouble sleeping and many people had trouble with the increased volume and duration of the music. From 3-7, it would be nice if there was a quality of tranquity in the music. Variety is the spice of life. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

I saw a lot of radical self-expression even though I didn't do anything out of the ordinary myself. | I don't know. Nothing in particular stands out. I enjoyed the days. | The effigy | I have no idea. | No | Yes | I have mixed feelings. I liked it a lot, but I have a difficult time meeting new people so I didn't spread my wings too much in that area. I wish I had. | N/A | N/A | |||||||||||||||

Y'all did an amazing job. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
73 | 7/2/2015 20:26:35 | Female | 30-39 | 1- Ignite was my first (virgin) burn!! | NC | A new burn experience, Community, Ticket Price, I heard how awesome it was from past attendees | 10 | Drove alone | 10 | 9 | No | Intro to Poi | No | Difficulty locating playform, All of the shiny, sparkly things | Only went to one... Intro to Poi | It was just hard to locate them. By the time I had free time and checked the schedule, I just had a hard time finding them. It was my first burn though, so that may have been part of my difficulty. | 6 | 0 | None | Working in Sanctuary and just general acceptance as I was from others made discussion open and honest. Others also looked out for me and put an end to any advances that I was not comfortable with - they asked if I was ok and offered to speak to the person. I wasn't completely uncomfortable because I handled the immediate situation, but it was really comforting to know that someone had my back and was watching out for me even when I didn't know they were. | No one judging me if I just wandered around or if I just wanted to sit and chill for a while. No one getting upset at me for having panic attacks like they do in the "real world." | It's a tie... My first effigy burn with people I care about. Even though I don't do the best job of connecting in the "real world" because of issues I deal with, it was good to feel like we were the same and all worthy at the same time. It was sharing and I'm sappy like that. Dancing on top of the mini stage at PFL and being encouraged to keep going. Ending with lots of happy, dancing people sitting down to hear a bedtime story. It just made me feel like we were transitioning to quiet time but that the vibe of "home" and "family" continued. | I would | Not very artistic, but I can always help with direction | Yes | 11 out of 10 🙂 | I had a hard time getting my things to my campsite due to some health issues. Ended up camping in a less desireable location because I couldn't carry it any further. Didn't see any cart or help presence, but I managed. Would have helped me have more fun that night if I hadn't made so many trips. Could have just been bad timing though. I really loved the whole experience anyway, just had to rest more than I would have liked. | ||||||||||||||||||||

No playing or forming. Maybe a little playing. | I will never be good at time. | All of the shiny, sparkly things | I saw flag making happening. It looked great. | Was there a giant board of events? I would've have looked at it, or maybe I would have if I knew where it was. | Sewing 101 I'd like to do next year. | 4+ theme camp stuff | No | Transformus, alchemy, euphoria. Lurch is kind of a burn, but also not really. But I did it. | This question is hard for me to answer. I feel like every moment of every burn I've ever went embodies at least one of the principles. Except for that one time I super glued my gloved hand to someone's split toe. That moment lacked principles. | Mandala coloring time @ Mustacheville. | Becoming a car with the pop up bus tent. That was the best. | I brought mandala coloring books. That's the art I got. | Yes! That's a great idea! | Supercalifragilistic... I forget how to spell the rest. | Definitely. | |||||||||||||||||||

I would be happy to host any of those 🙂 | 2 shifts - 4-5 hrs | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | None | The overall feeling of radical inclusion and communal effort from the entire weekend, really. Feeling respected and welcomed and allowed to just be, but also be WITH was wonderful. | Handing out gifts I had brought for kids and getting an unexpected fiercely thankful hug for sharing. | The amaaaaaazing parade and dancing around the effigy, followed by the big ol' burn and the burning dust tornadoes!!! | If I had some, sure. | If I have time to, sure! | YES! | It was a lovely weekend (the weather couldn't have been more perfect!) of camping and making new connections. I enjoyed slowing things down for a bit and relaxing in nature. The respectful atmosphere there was refreshing. I would rate my experience highly, would come play again. | N/A | N/A | Not having a shower for several days was rough; will need to investigate a portable option or go in on one with someone for the next time. | |||||||||||||
