Leave No Trace
Leaving no trace means just that – leaving no trace that you were ever there. Far from what you might be used to at some festivals, every last beer can and sequin must be disposed of after the event. You are PERSONALLY responsible for every single thing you take to site – all your rubbish must be taken away with you. Pack it out, pack it in. Leaving no trace doesn’t just mean picking up the odd bit of rubbish though. Once the event finishes, we have to take down all the structures, pack up all the building materials, store it all, and then clear the site of any stray MOOP (matter out of place).
Critically, Leaving No Trace also includes chemicals found in soaps, solvents, and beauty products. PLEASE BRING ECO-FRIENDLY BIODEGRADABLE OUTDOOR SOAP (not just “organic” it must be certified as compatible for camping/nature use). As a reminder, bathing is NOT ALLOWED in the water. Even biodegradable soaps need soil to decompose and cannot be used in open water such as rivers or lakes.
For RV and campervan attendees, it is important to bring something to place underneath the vehicle to catch oil and other fluid leaks. Every drop of oil pollutes 3 square meters of terrain, so it is important we don’t let this happen!
