**\<>/**\<>/**\<>/**\<>/**\<>/**\<>/**\<>/**\<>/**\<>/**\<>/**\<>/**
Happy holidays, everybody ... hope you're surviving the onslaught in
good form! Oh and hey, one way we've found to bring a little of the
ol' playa spirit to the season is to DIY (that's Do It Yourself, yo)
our gifts. It seems to soften the rough edges a little, adding a
personal touch of immediacy to the whole shebang, and it's oh so much
more satisfying. Food for thought.
We have IMPORTANT news today for the matter at hand -- Burning Man
might seem far off, but we have NEWS already - including the new
EARLIER DEADLINE FOR CAMP PLACEMENT. Plus, this ish is chock full of
recaps of various programs and projects from 2009, including the Reno-
Sparks Recycling Program, the Kiwanis Bike Program, and Feed the
Artists. Also, an opportunity to become part of the Burning Man Staff
for you money-minded beancounter types (not it!).
By the way -- a few dozen of the core Burning Man staff wrapped up our
annual Staff Retreat (the second four days' worth) recently, wherein
we spent intensive hours visioning the long-term future of Burning
Man, and how to get there.
At the Retreat, we had the opportunity to gather as a group to burn a
tiny temple and say goodbye to Burning Man's long-time receptionist
(and Burning Man's second-ever employee), Joy Orabella. Joy passed
away on November 20th, surrounded by friends and family, after a
courageous battle with cancer. Joy was the absolute spiritual heart of
the Burning Man Project. She was everybody's friend, supporter, mother
figure, and touchstone, and her giggle was a part of the music of our
lives here at HQ for over 11 years. While we know she'll always be
watching over us (of this there's no doubt), she is dearly missed, and
we plan to make sure Joy remains a part of Burning Man -- in name and
in deed.
However you swing your holiday season, our very best to you and yours.

BURNING MAN 2010 TICKET INFORMATION
We'll keep this short and sweet. Tickets for Burning Man 2010 go on
sale on Wednesday, January 13th, 2010, at 10am PST. All the info you
need to know to prepare yourselves for that auspicious day of glory
can be found on our ticketing page:
http://tickets.burningman.comNow, every year there's a big crush of people hammering at the site to
get the cheapest tickets possible (our systems will be ready for the
onslaught), and there's a general gnashing of teeth about the whole
thing. In light of that, we'll just offer the following gentle
reminders (please indulge us):
a) If you don't end up getting one of the cheapest tickets, it's only
a little bit more money we're talkin' about here, and (trust us)
you'll completely forget about that extra cash when you're standing on
the playa, basking in the mind-blowing wonder that is Black Rock
City ... and
b) in the spirit of supporting our (economically diverse) community,
we really do encourage you to purchase the highest priced ticket you
can afford, as it leaves the cheapest tickets for the folks who need
them most, while subsidizing the same. It's all about the love, people.
So, take a moment to consider that ... breathe, and chill. And then go
get your tickets!

DO WE HAVE YOUR 2009 LOST CAMERA (OR CAMERA CARD)? - LOOK HERE &
RESPOND BY 01/13/10
The fine volunteers at Playa Info take great care of all the found
items, including cameras and memory cards from Burning Man and SF
Decompression. A small sampling of images from each of these items
from 2009 are posted at the link below, with accompanying lost item
inventory numbers, as in "09-###-G".
Peruse the images. If not your personal images, maybe you'll spot
those belonging to a friend? The people who camped next door? Stranger
things have happened.
o Did you lose a camera?
o Did you lose just a camera card?
o Maybe a whole bag or backpack with a camera inside?
see:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/44352854@N03/Twenty-four web photo pages of dusty, smiling Burners!
If you spot your images, write

NEW DATES FOR THEME CAMP REGISTRATION IN 2010, AND A NOTE ABOUT CAMP
SIZE & INTERACTION
2009 was a seminal year for Burning Man Placement. We had the
challenge of more questionnaires filed than in 2008, but with less
reserved camping space for theme camps. So we needed to apply our
criteria more comprehensively, and in the end could not find space for
over 130 camps. We did our very best, but had very little time or
resources to examine appeals to our decisions.
We have debriefed on last year. We have reviewed the feedback from
participants. Specifically we have heard the complaint that has been
growing louder every year: announcing Placement on August 1st is a
huge obstacle to travel planning for the east coast and international
members of our community. To address this requires a new commitment
from both from the Placement volunteers and YOU:
o We are "churning cycles of invention and destruction" by asking
Theme Camps to meet the same, APRIL 29TH PLACEMENT QUESTIONNAIRE
DEADLINE to which our infrastructure departments are held.
o Here's the benefit: This will allow us to commit to announcing camp
placement ONE MONTH EARLIER: BY EARLY JULY.
We would like to connect earlier still with those that are traveling
far distances and/or have significant infrastructure planning needs.
While the placement process HAS NOT become 'first come, first served',
the earlier the questionnaire is in, the better the chances of making
this happen.
Of course as always, we will remain ready and standing by to consult
with you on the inevitable succeeding tweaks to the original plans
submitted: some shifting of contents will always occur.
As project manager Sweetthang wrote back on July 15th of this year:
"...we seem to have more requests for larger camps, but the
interactivity has not grown. Larger camps that appear to be blossoming
bedroom communities that are simply adding space to accommodate more
campers, but no [additional] interactivity have become very difficult
for us to place."
On a purely practical basis, it is simpler to map more smaller camps
in our city.
The Placement team of volunteers have exponentially increased their
meeting schedule to facilitate a higher degree of collaboration with
theme camps. Our ears are open at
placement@burningman.com. We have
evolved, and are ready to mid-wife the life you will bring to Black
Rock City 2010.

FEED THE ARTISTS PROGRAM 2009 RECAP
OK, so have you heard about the Feed the Artists Program (FtA, if
you're short on time)? If not, here's a quick snapshot ...
A few years ago, Burners Colonel Angus and Chef Jean-Pierre got
together and decided to show their gratitude and support for Burning
Man artists by hosting setup week dinners for the hard-working artist
crews. Makes sense, right? These crews were working their tails off,
sweating and bleeding in the hot sun, deep into the night, well into
the wee hours of the morning, creating art for Black Rock City. What
better way to show appreciation and support than to feed them healthy
gourmet meals while they're pushing themselves to the edge of
exhaustion?
They started with a kitchen out of Ashram Galactica, where they fed
115 people over three nights. Then, they spent the next year
planning, organizing, and -- most importantly -- spreading the word to
other camps. In 2008, they added six Theme Camps to help feed a total
of 674 people. By 2009, FtA had recruited 35 Theme Camps to join the
effort, allowing this program to feed over 1000 artists!! That's
right, 1000 meals were served.
See where this is going? To coin a phrase, it's Radical Collaboration.
Folks in our community are giving the gifts they can share, supporting
other folks who are giving the gifts *they* can share. And the cycle
continues and grows ... and we all benefit. As Colonel Angus describes
the FtA mission: "FtA is an ideavirus that spreads and infects its
host community with a deeply felt sense of appreciation, community,
and purpose."
So, with HUGE appreciation for their efforts, here are the Theme Camps
who participated in FtA in 2009 by hosting artists for dinner(s):
Raygun Gothic Rocketship, Ashram Galactica, Camp of the Living Dead,
Windbinge, Camp Condom, Purple Palace Camp, Happy Camp, Root Society,
Tree Ring Circus, evoLLution, Midnight Poutine, Spin Art Camp, Camp
Condom, Heebeegeebee Healers, Alternative Energy Zone, American Steel
Camp, Peace Camp, Black Rock Diner, Midnight Poutine, Shadyvil,
Twilight Spaghetti Theater, White Trash Superstars, Super 8 Sasquatch,
Tast-E-Vin, Peace Camp, The Feed, Entheon Village
Colonel Angus also notes that "special mention should be made of a few
camps. Sacred Spaces Village is an amazing story. They were a small
group of about 7 people during setup week that fed FAR more artists
than any other theme camp (well over 150 people), including the
feeding of the entire Temple crew (75+ people)! The Lightning Temple
crew hosted two separate dinners where they fed over 60 artists. And
finally, Ashram Galactica, where FtA was born, also stepped up to the
plate and fed the entire Raygun Gothic Rocketship crew (50+ People)."
In future editions of the JRS, we'll give YOU ample opportunity to
participate, and talk about ways in which this concept can be taken
out into the real world. Stay tuned. In the meantime, if you want to
learn more, check out the FtA website:
http://feedtheartists.netThank you, Feed the Artists, for all the work you've done, and for
providing a wonderful model of gifting in a community!

RENO-SPARKS RECYCLING PROJECT 2009 RECAP
The Reno-Sparks Recycling Project, as operated by Save Mart
Supermarkets and Whole Foods Market, returned another very successful
year in 2009, thanks primarily to the increased participation of you,
Burning Man participants.
More of us are recycling! Participation in the program as a percentage
of the Black Rock City population increased by about 12-13% over 2008.
Thank you very much for your participation and care!
Most of the recyclables (glass, most plastics, and metals) that Whole
Foods Market collected went to Waste Management, while cardboard
remained in-house with its regular recycling. All the metals
collected by Save Mart went to Schnitzer Steel, plastics to Earth
First Recycling, glass to Waste Management, and cardboard and plastic
bags remained in-house with Save Mart's regular recycling. All
bicycles collected by both chains went to the Kiwanis Bike Project in
Reno, household batteries to Whole Foods and then on to Ecycle
Environmental in California, plastic bags to Save Mart, and all
garbage to Waste Management. All food and water deposited by
participants were donated to the Food Bank of Northern Nevada.
Save Mart raised $190 from the return on the metals it collected
(metals are the only recyclable that currently has a realizable profit
in the region). Whole Foods Market was unable to cash in on any of
its recyclables due to its year-round recycling contract with Waste
Management; however, Whole Foods chose to donate the proceeds raised
in the garbage disposal services they provided to participants, which
amounted to over $600. Both Whole Foods and Save Mart have chosen to
match the proceeds raised -- Save Mart will donate $380, and Whole
Foods will donate $1000.
In total, $1380 will be donated to Black Rock Solar for the second
phase of its solar installation project at the Pyramid Lake Paiute
Tribal Medical Clinic in Nixon, due to be completed by early 2010.
If you have any feedback, please email it to
RenoRecycling@yahoo.com.
Below are the totals in recyclables. Also provided in parentheses for
comparison are some of the totals collected by Save Mart in 2008.
Unless otherwise noted, the unit of measurement is a 4' x 4' x 3' bin:
Save Mart:
Plastics -- 144 bins (183)
Aluminum -- 15 (9)
Other Metals -- 8 (7)
Glass -- 19 (34)

RENO KIWANIS BIKE PROGRAM 2009 RECAP
Ellen Jacobsen of the Reno Kiwanis Bike Program writes in to let us
know how their program fared in 2009. We were happy to have Ellen and
her crew join us for a day on playa this year, where we got to know
each other, and her crew enjoyed a tour of Black Rock City. Great
group of folks! She writes:
"We sold 550+ bikes to people from 32 countries (maybe not living
there now, but homelands) that they pinned on our map of the world
including Ukraine, Russia, Brazil, British Virgin Isles, and Bahrain
all new this year. Bikes sold included Burning Man Bikes and bikes
for college kids who came in to our shop for the extended hours Net
proceeds from pre-sales and on-site sales was approximately $20,000
net which is 25% higher than last year and will allow us to do
significant service within the northern Nevada area including
bicycling safety and incentive programs, pedestrian safety programs
for younger kids, support for our middle, high school and adult
outreach programs, book programs, dolls for hospitals, etc. etc.
Without support from the Burning Man community our programs would be
much smaller and less complete .
Participating in the Burners without Borders fundraiser pushed our
sales over the top. It was a fun event, but it also helped us finish
off our reservations about 3 weeks earlier than last year (and we
reserved more bikes as well). Plan on our participation again next
year please. It gets the Burning Man Community talking about us and
that's huge. And we soooooo appreciate the support for us through the
Jack Rabbit Speaks. The free advertising is wonderful and much
appreciated.
And we tallied over 300 hours of service by volunteers who helped with
bikes during August and early September It not only included the
sales for your bunch, but also a veritable army of kids (high school
and college age) who came in to learn more about bike repair and doing
"earn a bike" to get a bike for transportation to and from school and
work.
We got 254 bikes back to be recycled as of tonight and it included
quite a few new ones that we didn't sell to them both at the shop and
at the SaveMarts and at Whole Foods.
We collected over 250 bikes total as of this afternoon with 75 at
Keystone, 30 from Lakeside and 24 from Whole Foods and over 100 at our
shop. These were transported back to Reno by the Burners who support
us and our recycling efforts. We'll clean them up and either store
them to use next year or fix them up for kids in the area to use right
now. Many of the rest of the bikes we had sold were stored by Burners
who said they kept them because they liked them and wanted to use them
again (e,g, we brought one back and kept one comments).
The Whole Foods trailer was full and this is outstanding for a first
ever collection point -- thanks for making it happen. And they
indicated they might be interested in a bike drive or PR event
sometime later this year.
The word is out about SaveMart Keystone and we had superb support from
them. They not only sold bikes for us, but they also collected bikes,
bike pumps, racks, etc. that we'll use this year.
This is also great for international awareness for Kiwanis and the
service we do worldwide. There were lots of folks who inquired about
the organization and what we do worldwide which is great community
relations..and we're looking forward to what it may nurture..
We're headed to the playa on Saturday to pick up kids bikes, and as
many adult bikes too as we can handle (3 trucks, 3 trailers and 7
people). I'll let you know how it works out....
Thanks for all you do to make this happen. This was by far our most
successful event to-date."

BURNERS WITHOUT BORDERS REPORTS: KENYA & SAMOA
Motomoto Circus is Thriving in Kenya
Will Ruddick has been teaching street children in Mombasa, Kenya how
to spin fire so that they might be empowered to raise themselves out
of poverty and thrive. The fire troop known as Motomoto Circus is
proud to announce that they have just performed at the Lamu National
Cultural Festival where they were very well received. BWB was able to
fund the performers' trip to the festival because of generous
donations from our community, and BWB could use your continued support
in helping to make this project a success. You can check out the whole
story here at BWB's Blog:
http://blog.burnerswithoutborders.org/Update on BWB Deployment to Samoa and Indonesia
Recently, several long-time BWB volunteers landed in American Samoa to
assess a possible volunteer deployment there. Due to the many
challenges dealing with transportation and creating a viable
infrastructure, BWB will not be deploying at this time. Neesh
continued on to Indonesia where he is working with the fine volunteers
of Hands On Disaster Response who are responding to the needs from the
earthquake that struck two months ago. If you are interested in

FROSTBURN - PITTSBUGH, PA - FEBRUARY 12-15
When a group of Pittsburgh Burners thought to themselves: "What makes
Burning Man special?" the answer was resounding: harsh conditions,
amazing art, good people. And what harsh conditions were available?
Winter, of course...cold, snowy, Pittsburgh winter. And thus
"Frostburn" was born.
Imagine the climatic opposite of Burning Man: not a Playa but a
Tundra, where ice and snow join fire and steam as mediums... Where
sharing warmth is not just a figure of speech, but a necessity. Where
radical self-reliance and communal effort are critical for human
survival...
Frostburn is now entering its third year and has thus far been a
resounding success in bringing people together, showing off new art,
and reminding us why we liked to play in the snow in the first place.
We've had sweat lodges, viking ships, effigies not-so-vaguely
resembling male genitalia, naked Mr. Rogers sing-alongs, and even full
service sports bars serving pierogies. Not to mention the normal snow-
ball battles, polar bear plunges, and normal winter activities. One
of the most rewarding things, however, has been seeing people realize
what they can do....huge contingents bringin' it from climates where
the temperature never sees 50 (go Alchemy crew!), while others have
come back just because they realized what they can do. Plus it's made
hot chocolate all the sweeter...
Frostburn has some amenities...limited electrical sites, RV access, a
heated bathroom...but more and more, people have been creating warm
spaces for people to gather and be together and share stories
(umm...and party). Won't you join us?
Frostburn takes place 50 miles north of Pittsburgh, PA over
Presidents' day weekend: February 12-15th. Tickets start at $35 and
are on sale now at
