Making Sense of this interactive site
One of the strong points and at the same time weaknesses of an interactive site is that at first look there are too many options, and they mostly don't seem to do what you want!

Copy of Email sent May 25, 2009 to those who expressed an interest in The Elders for 2009
Hi,
I finally have "The Elders" theme camp application, plot plan and cleanup
plan finished and submitted. Whew.
For those interested I put links to the budget, plot plan, front view,
cleanup plan, design stuff, and the theme camp application on the website.

Over the past year, I've talked with a number of people, had some email
comments, and of course have thought a lot about this years camp myself.
Understanding that there will be lots of tweaking, here's the summary of
the the way I see the 2009 camp evolving.

Greetings!
Every year since 2002, a group of quiet but helpful burners known as
the Temple Guardians have watched over the Burning Man temple at
night, helping to ground the space and assist others in need.
As a Temple Guardian, you volunteer for one or more three-hour shifts.
The shifts run overnight from 6pm until 6am, Monday through early
