[57north-discuss] Re: [57north-announce] Announcing campGND 2024!

Hi team, campGND this year is different to prior years. We are making a deliberate effort to think about our event's impact on the environment and would like you to make conscious choices about your impact on the site, the environment, the people and consider how you spend your time on site too. To support this we will not be running any generators - we nearly managed it last year! The volume of music will be monitored - we want to hear the birds and enjoy the place we come to visit and also offer a welcoming space to our attendees with sensory issues and sensitivities. Let’s be each other’s recommendation engines - we wills be more democratic on music selection and ask for more people to play their music in the background. No one person should be burdened with the task of group entertainment and sharing little bits of our passions will hopefully spark joy in others. Be prepared with offline-first music, and think hard about what music you want to share with others. We still want more people to talk about their passion and incomplete projects too - email talks(a)campgnd.com! With sharing in mind please volunteer to help in the kitchen and share your culinary passion by feeding us! We have budget for food, so you won’t be out of pocket. If you don’t want to cook, please help clean up and tidy up after food service is done. Please sign up for all kitchen tasks and menu planning at https://scottishconsulate.org/campgnd2024/kitchen If you can, please either car-share on your way to the site or use public transit to get to Huntly station - there will be enough vehicles and people to shuttle you. See who’s got space at https://scottishconsulate.org/campgnd2024/attendees. You could cycle and put your bags in the van/a vehicle too! Love, Team campGND
