Arson Island Resort is Dead Sacred 10:00 and Evidence
411 {AIRID} and its mystical, post-belief ideology will be bringing you the best of grab bag theater during the day, we'll be hosting a dirty wench auction Friday night (make sure and come sign yourself up by Friday to be auctioned off-find the Madame), we'll have Hip Hop Happy Hour back by popular demand every night at dusk, as well as many other reasons for you to come out to the corner of Sacred and Evidence. A huge hearth will warm you at night, our mystical dune shade structure will comfort you by day. Fresh juice, you say? Lasers to dance under? The best fire performers you've seen? Alien Love Nest pendants? Create art with Transplant (who himself, is Beyond Belief)? How can all this happen in one camp?! Come find out what else we're hiding up our sleeves.

Black Rock City Animal Control Paradox 6:00 and Faith
411 BRCAC will make daily collections of pesky playa "creatures" who are running free causing disturbances to camps, streets and or persons of the City. These captured animals will be documented and tagged for scientific research and easy recognition, and possibly spayed/neutered and given "shots". Our trained staff will use the latest in animal reform practices to allow these potentially dangerous animals the chance to be reintroduced to life on the playa. If our staff concludes that an animal has achieved reformed status they will have the opportunity to be adopted by a responsible Black Rock City citizen. Otherwise they will be put to sleep.

Bluehouse Esplanade and Profane 9:30
411 The Bluehouse Collective holds that the conditions under which we live and labor in an information age society are the product of human artifice. The constructed nature of our world allows for the possibility of different interpretations as well as distinct practices. Members of the Bluehouse Collective hold that it is their inalienable right to actively participate in building the society of which they are citizens. We support active thinking and involvement in our individual and collective lives to bring about a dialectic of action and reflection to serve as a catalyst for growth and improvement. The collective seeks to expose the current mechanisms that structure our lives so that we may challenge, modify, improve or affirm. We seek to ensure that each of us exists in a society responsive to and supportive of our individually directed lives within the collective whole.

Camp Wrong Creed and Received 4:00
411 Camp Wrong pulls out all the stops for its third (and possibly final) consecutive year. With no moon to guide use in 03 we've gotten creative and added "The Wrong Artcar" featuring its mobile tiki-lounge, groove sounds and crazy antics of camp super-heroes Methane Man and Bic Lighter Boy to feed the hungry eyes, ears and funny-bone of all wanderers. Look for us in the evenings somewhere beyond the esplanade in the vast area that is Beyond Belief! Daytime will usually find us lounging under our spacious sunshade sipping homebrew compliments of Nutsack (brewmeister junior) and Smallfry (brewmaster general) so stop by for a frosty one at the "gift fence" but like the name implies you must offer up a gift or act of kindness in return -- all talents welcome!

Hushville Dogma and Dubious 5:00
411 Hushville is an aural oasis in a sea of chaos. We are an open village and everyone is welcome to camp with us, provided they abide by three rules: 1) No generators of any kind at any time; 2) No amplified sound; 3) Clean up after yourself. Burning Man 2001 was the first year for Hushville and it was a resounding success, with nearly 200 campers who were actually able to get a bit of sleep at night. Another 200 people joined us in 2002, so in 2003 we're projecting a population of 16,234.
