Queer Camp! <100 miles from bay area,
This is a big dream of mine that I am finally putting into action. Come one, come all, to Queer Camp! All are welcome regardless of gender, sexual orientation, or anything else that we attempt to homogenize in this culture. The weekend will have a summer camp like structure (cabin groups, talent shows, and making out in the woods) without the hetero-normative, put my box in a box, boys v. girls bull shit most of us had to suffer through at other summer camps. Vote now for which weekend you want, sign up to be a cabin leader, and counselor or support staff. There will be some cost of this event, which goes towards food, location, and necessary supplies. Want to be on the planning team? E-mail Johnson.rose@gmail.com, we are forming a planning team.

Vote now, May 20th-22nd OR 27th-30th Or June 3rd-5th
Location is still TBD-do you have access/connections to a big piece of land (w/h2o) where we could camp?
