So far I see Camp Stella, Astropups, Camp Beaverton, Circus Jerk, Gay Rd. Village and Moonbow that appear to have a queer sensibility for this year. The only event I see so far, is the Gay Pride parade. Comfort & Joy has some events listed but are not on the theme camp list. Are we going to be well represented this year?

Wonderingly...

  • howdy folks,

    Haven't been on tribe much since the last burn. I gladly pass on the "Queer Event Calendar" organizer mantle to whoever wants to pick it up! My friends and I will be setting up our camp somewhere near Comfort & Joy (E & 8:30) this year. And of course we're looking forward to all the queer/friendly events on the playa. If you see a sign for the "Land of Misfit Toys" stop and say hello.

    :)

    • Terry! Your calendar was the only reason I got to have a "gay day" for the first time in 10 burns. Without the calendar, I'm afraid I'll fall back into old patterns? How did you figure out which events were happening and to put them together? It was sooooooo awesome to have it last year. Sorry I didn't thank you sooner.
      • Aww, shucks! ;)

        How To Assemble Information From ye Dyverse, Anarchic, Queer Groups

        1. Ask the "big" ones what they are doing: C&J, Astropups, Moonbow, Jiffy Lube (RIP).
        They usually ALL have fun stuff to do, and are happy to get the word out.

        2. Search the event calendar for certain words: queer, gay, lesbian

        3. Enlist friends, fairies, and sex slaves to explore other avenues. Many hands lighten a load!

        Looking forward to seeing what you come up with ;)

        T.
