WE NEED YOUR HELP
We need lots of volunteers to make the party great. Here you can find out what we need and volunteer to help out.

FREE ADMISSION FOR 2 SHIFTS
Although virtue is, of course, its own reward, we're also giving volunteers reduced or free admission to the event. It's pretty simple: if you agree to fill one shift, your ticket is $10, and if you agree to fill two shifts, your ticket is free.

ALL BURNERS WELCOME
We're mainly expecting Disorienters to fill these shifts, but if you're a veteran burner from another camp, email us, and we'll be happy to put you on the crew, with the same discount/free offer). We are looking forward to working with our friends from Kostume Kult and Freek Factory on this event!

HOW TO VOLUNTEER
Pick a shift -- or shifts -- you'd like to volunteer for, and email COMPRESSOR2005@energyconnectingart.com - we'll get in touch with more info!

Please sign up as early as you can -- once you know when you'll be working, you can start planning all the other fun stuff you're going to do all night long!

Before the event, we'll make sure you know where you need to be, when you need to be there, and who you'll be working with. In some cases we will assign a "leader" to the shift, but in most cases the team will be expected to self-organize, based on fairly straightforward objectives.
