DC Burners Town Hall - March 1st

Groups audience: 

Beautiful People!

Join us for the *DC Burners Town Hall on March 1st.*
*Where*: Local 16: 1602 U Street NW Washington, *DC* 20009
*When*: 6-9pm on March 1st.

FB invite: https://www.facebook.com/events/1741605672558923/

** Local 16 is 21+. We've been able to bring in under 21 before with
special permission, so if you have a younger burner who wants to come,
please respond to me directly and I'll see what we can do.

=======

It's been a huge year for the DC Burner community on so many fronts. Many
challenges and a TON of triumphs. It's like you've been doing this for
years. It's JUST like that!

For those who have been to this before, it's time for our annual gathering
of the area creators and rascals to share and connect. If you are a camp or
project or initiative or a thing (to be technical), be thinking about a 1-2
minute and 1 (one, as in, one) slide we can add to the presentation deck
(oh, DC) to share as part of the evening. Also, be thinking about making a
sign / freak flag so people can find you after we do all that.

For those who haven't been to this before, this is an amazing way to get a
lay of the land / zoo that is the DC area Burner community. It is a diverse
and capable lot, made even more so by the newbies who persistently moved
past their questions and doubts about "Am I a Burner?". If you have to
ask...every master was a novice. Also, the truth is, the DC area is the
second largest Burning Man community IN THE WORLD. That means we are
EVERYWHERE. This is our secret underground cabal meeting we don't talk
about. Actually that part is not true but it was fun to say.

During the event we will spend about 45 minutes on local stuff, 30 minutes
on Regional Burns and events, and a final 15 minutes on preparations for
Burning Man specifically.

After that, we'll spread out and have an unconference (oh, DC) speed dating
(oh, DC) mix around and connect with the groups you want to meet kinda
thing immediately afterwards.

Additionally, we are going to pretend to keep time on the rails which means
arrive early, we keep each introduction to 1-2 minutes. Each presenter gets
ONE slide. Please submit your slide by February 27th to us at
washingtondc@burningman.org. If you absolutely cannot get your slide in by
then, we'll be at Local 16 from 5-6pm on the day of the Town Hall to
collect last minute slides (we'll only include last minute slides from
those individuals who are physically already at Local 16 by 6pm). Town Hall
kickoff at 7pm.

*Please note that you can only present if your information is already
listed on DCBurners.org, so please include a link to your information
posted on that website when you send in your slide.*

*Send info here: *
washingtondc@burningman.org

Additionally, additionally, apparently Transformus tickets will go on sale
at 8:00pm. Happily we will be directly above a coffee shop Wifi for those
of you who need to handle that.

Questions? Sound off!

Mad love to all!

YES, That's right!

Read the last paragraph of the original email:

"Additionally, additionally, apparently Transformus tickets will go on sale
at 8:00pm. *Happily we will be directly above a coffee shop Wifi for those
of you who need to handle that.*" emphasis added

I've never been to Transformus, so I don't know if there's been a limit on
ticket sales based on venue size. Since Transformus is moving to Marvin's
Mountaintop in WV this summer, a venue-size restriction wouldn't apply any
more. Marvin hosts some humongous festivals, so a middling-size regional
burn is no big deal.
