Reid <3 Beavers! Camp Beaverton, that is! The Beavs need YOU!

Some of you might not know that I’m the Founder of Camp Beaverton: a wonderful and heavenly place for women and trans people to feel safe and free at Burning Man. I’ll be on the Playa in 2017 supportin’ my beavs because it’s Camp Beaverton’s 10th Anniversary!!

The time has come to begin our plans for the most amazing Burning Man ever. Get your friends and family involved with what you do come August/September by publicizing how people can donate money and goods to our camp! Camp Beaverton is a registered non-profit which means that we can always use donations.

Burning Man is a load of fun for us all. Beyond that though stands Camp Beaverton’s true mission: providing a safe space on playa for women and trans people to seek refuge from the sometimes overwhelming and often testosterone-heavy culture that exists in other areas of the playa. Camp Beaverton provides shelter, safety and freedom from the male gaze. It’s a place to rest, to rejuvenate, to explore safely with one’s own boundaries respected. A wishlist has been created for Camp Beaverton from Home Depot gift cards to condoms, direct financial donations to sex toys. There are even volunteer opportunities on the wishlist for those who may not have finances to give but still want to put in time. It all matters, it all needs to be acquired, and now is our best chance to reach out and gain assistance from our large and helpful community.

Please share this info with everyone you know. Here’s an email template you can use (here) to make your lives easier, so please take a few minutes to publicize and get our wishlist fulfilled!
