REASONS to CAMP at TROY

2011 promises to be a banner year at Burning Man. Due to the level of art and participation already promised, and the Bureau of Land Management’s unwillingness to lease the Burning Man Organization any additional space, for the first time ever, this event is expected to SELL OUT. Having already announced the elimination of ticket sales at the gate, and closing all walk-in outlets for purchasing, it is clear to us this year will be comprised of the willing… Requiring a community of committed citizens who have planned their trip in advance has some wonderful advantages for our collective experience. In short, it’s going to go off!

In the spirit of the Greeks, we at Trojan Horse Headquarters have devised a way to help you enjoy a supreme Playa experience, while ensuring the Trojan Horse is fully realized. As with all things at Burning Man, this is a not-for profit experience. Your participation in Troy Camp is a way to collectively pool our human resources, and reasonable expenses for a (plush) week in the desert – so we can all enjoy the extracurriculars without worrying about cooking a meal, or when to sponge bath.

Our core team has 10+ years of playa experience, and has collectively housed over 1,000 people in the course of our history, in relative luxury in Black Rock City. You want:

Hot showers? (for standard+ campers)
Running water to wash your hands and face?
Meal plans – 3 per day, one hot? (for standard+ campers)
View decks?
Sheltered and community gathering spaces?
High-rise condo sleeping accommodations? (for deluxe or benefactors)
Toilets?
Views views views?

WE’VE GOT IT ALL….

This year, please consider letting us show you the softer side of Black Rock City, and check your cares at the gate. Our gift is creating a community where your needs will be met — with style. Our crew of engineers, architects, interior designers and builders is gifting to the Trojan Horse our services towards the infrastructure of a camp for all of its residents.

Consider what it typically costs to shelter yourself at Burning Man for the week. Then add a premium for all the services we are offering, unique to any other camp, not to mention the friendships and community you’ll foster. Think of the investment in trucks, pump systems, showers, generators, refrigeration, evaporation ponds, lighting, building materials, shade cloth, carpets, sound systems, chandeliers, etc.

While we’ve raised enough funds from our community to purchase wood, tools, insurance and leased space to build the Horse, there are still many attributes of this interactive art installation that require funding. We hope our gift of a comfortable residential community is a place you choose to be a part of.

We understand you have a lot of choices with your experience — and we think after 10 years, we’ve come up with a fantastic place for you to call home. We hope you’ll join us, and your dues can be counted on to help bring our Horse to life.

Support the Trojan Horse — by camping at Troy in 2011.
