If you plan to bring sound, READ ABOUT SOUND
TOWN. We warned you!
by Kate
A big piece of Burn events are
Theme Camps. Encompassing an (almost) anything goes attitude, the creation
of Theme Camps are for the most part attendee driven. Many theme camps
offer activities, services, art, workshops and /or performances, with
no limit on creativity and originality.
From elaborate creations of space and art, to a simple
place to relax, from a large group of people who create an alternate
world to a few friends who just want to camp together, Theme Camps are
the heart and soul of a burn event. Participating in the creation of
a Theme Camp can be a lot of work, from building it to breaking it all
down, but it is also an experiment in sharing and community, one that
is worth experiencing.
If you are planning a Theme Camp and would like reserved
placement of your camp, please contact our Theme Camp coordinator, Captain
Rose. It's the smart thing to do. Trust us on this.
And yes, Theme Camps can receive Art Grants.

Four Quarters is big and spread out. So we have towns
too. Towns with themes for their Camps. For for 2011:
* Sound Town is our all night, all day
aural environment. If you want to run loud sound, blow your bass box
and your youthful hearing, you will be in Sound Town. Sound Town is
in one of the prettiest sections of Four Quarters, has it's own swimming
hole, with amazing natural acoustics that limit sound propagation. But
there are limits. Read the Sound Town section for full particulars and
to register your system. If you don't read it, and do bring your sound
system, you will be mightily gerflectered.
* Artisan Alley. Crafts, clothing/costumes,
creation stations.. let your imagination express itself!

The Jackson Pollock Memorial NUDE WINE BAR and
Jazz Experiment
Guests are invited--in fact, encouraged in the most determined and obnoxious
ways--to disrobe and enjoy cheap red wine. Cheese may or may not be
available. A large blank canvas of some sort, upon which guests may
spray paint to their abstract expressionist heart's content, will be
available. Really old jazz will be played on utterly tiny, low-tech,
analog equipment. Polyrhythms will be encouraged. Polyamory will be
gleefully tolerated. Polyester will be removed. By Jim from Detroit|
Rhovanion
We are a fun loving group of people (and geeks!) who enjoy historical
reenacting, science fiction, fantasy and life. Many of us enjoy heading
to conventions and Renaissance Faires. This year we'll be holding a
chainmail class and a Mongolian Hat making class!
Multidisciplinary Academy of Fire
Dance
A space will be created for fire performance and workshops on fire safety
and action with experienced spotters and communal tools. Hands on, live
fire instruction for those ready to cross over from practice gear to
fire tools. Also with nightly spin jams and skill swaps for veteran
performers.
Tree Of Knowledge
We will be tying scrolls of knowledge (trivia!) in the trees. There
will be divinations given by Mr. Wizard and a scheduled Wand Duel between
the wizards of knowledge which will result in the gift of knowledge
to the people- blueberry muffin brain food!
The Celtic Rose Project
The Celtic Rose Project is a living role playing experience. The Art
Installation "The Celtic Rose" will set the stage for the
crew of the Celtic Rose to talk, walk and act like 'Pirates' in their
natural environment. The Crew will be dressed to the nines in Renaissance
attire to complete the feeling of really being on the ship.
The theme camp will include a large number of Piratical activities,
Including a plank, cannons, grog and tea. Come and join the Captain
Rose and her jaunty crew as the explore this new world of Pennsylvania.
Kids Place
A completely kids friendly camp with kids activities, and child care
if anyone needs or wants it. Water guns, and slip-n-slides, snacks and
drinks!
Faerie Goddess Mothers
The Faerie Goddess Mothers are back... and would love for you to come
and share in the wonder of creating whimsical dwellings tucked into
tree roots and mossy land. Using natural materials and a bit of human
trinkets to create humble homes for our magical friends. This year we
will also be making Magical Wands
