Theme Camps

When a group of people camp together... that's a camp.... when they do it with style and have a rocking great time - that's a theme camp.

A theme camp is participatory. Anybody and everybody are always welcome. Theme camps can create an ambience, a visual presence or in some way provide a communal space or provide activity. It may be the anchor for a larger event taking place. Theme camps can include stages and performance: the only limits are the creativity of their members and the resources at their disposal.

All the needs must be thoroughly thought through to make your camp completely autonomous. This includes power, water and building equipment. Be prepared to haul everything out that you've brought in. Be prepared to clean up any debris left over, including screws and nails. And (seriously) all cigarette butts. (The managing principle of LEAVE NO TRACE.)

If you wish to advertise your camp or event, we will post your camp name and any information that you mark to be posted on the theme camp register. You may also discuss, plan ideas and recruit help on http://kiwiburn.tribe.net/ or at the Kiwiburn Forums. You will also be able to post your planned event on the event program bulletin board at Centre Camp.

To secure your site please fill in the theme camp register. We do wish to keep everyone happy. Kiwiburn is all about freedom: the freedom to be who we are and do what we choose. In saying that, it is also the freedom to not do what we choose not to and not see what we wish not to. No one should impose themselves on others. To help us facilitate all of your needs, please register as soon as possible. (Registration has now closed so we can't guarantee placement). If you have any questions, please email kiwiburn@googlegroups.com.
