Greeters

Theme camps are a great way to showcase art and bring like minded individuals together.

Let us know what you want to plan to do so you can share it with all your new friends. We definitely want people to experience your camp. Be sure to tell Greeters when you arrive!

We would like to be sure that your art gets a respectable home that makes the event safe and enjoyable for everyone. If you don’t plan on containing it in your camp footprint, let your Greeters or Rangers know, so they can help you with last minute placement. Don’t assume a space is empty!

RESPECT YOUR NEIGHBORSIf anyone becomes disruptive or threatening in any way, the organizers reserve the right to evict them from the premises.

Grounds for evictions are VERY SERIOUS MATTERS and include:• Bringing fireworks• Having a gun• Assault or threatening behavior

• Trespassing (into the event or neighboring properties)• Unlicensed animals • Theft

• Destruction of property or art• Taking photos withoutpermission• Failing to ask consent

YOU MUST HAVE CONSENT FROM EVERYONE IN A PHOTO BEFORE TAKING ONE. Photography without consent is an ejectable offense.

POISON IVY!

ANTS!MOSQUITOES! VENOMOUS

SNAKES??

The woods can be a dangerous place. Texas is full of furry woodland creatures that may or may not be friendly. These woods are home to a lot more than your urban landscape! Leave them alone and they’ll leave you alone.

Fire arts can be nasty and leave stupid welts! Treat carefully.

When in doubt - go see a medic!

Use cinnamon to deter them from your camp’s food!

Poison ivy oil spreads really

easily.

Take off your shoes OUTSIDE of your tent and other’s

common areas to prevent spread.

Danger-noodles abound!

This is Texas in spring. Bring bug spray!!

There is no

lifeguard on duty

at the ponds;

swim at your own risk.

“LEAVES OF 3 - LET IT BE!”

be careful, hippies
