Where the Sheep Sleep 2025

The one who fiddles with all the types of shops and entries to make sure that everyone who wants to get in, will get in!
Understands your panic and despair (looking at you RV owners) but cannot be deterred by any Siren’s Song. Come by and hug him in person as the campdaddy of Tiger&Wolf!

expert at connecting the dots, empowering humans, and turning wild wishes into dusty reality. Think fairy godparent meets human logistics wizard—with glitter.

Burning for about 5 years and this has absolutly changed my life for the better. I love the worldwide community where there is no judgement and our dreams can become reality. From the dust in Nevada to the green grass in the Netherlands, together we can create magic!

Part of the comms teams and known to have an opinion and enthusiasm about everything! My burn story began in 2016 by participating in Black Rock City, and it has changed my life forever. The sheep is my baby and I cant wait to get back and sip nice crisp cold bubbles on our Dutch playa.

Four years ago, I arrived at Where the Sheep Sleep and instantly felt at home—a place where everyone is fully, unapologetically themselves. Since then, I’ve been a Centercamp mom, deco lead, sang the burn, and now shape the experience through programming and stage management. Each year, I bring my creativity and life into this shared space of authenticity, respect, and true connection.

I am the philosopher of the group, bringing out of the box ideas, plus a camp (Leonardo) full of creative souls.

Every burn I’m blown-away by what we can create if we do it together. I love to be amazed, meet new people and share my smiles 🙂

Meet Huybert, your LNT lead for Where The Sheep Sleep at Burning Man Netherlands. A long-time burner with playa dust in his veins, Huybert is the friendly face making sure we leave nothing behind but footprints (and even those, ideally raked away). Approachable, easygoing, and always up for a chat, he believes Leave No Trace doesn’t have to be serious business — it’s just love for the land wrapped in a smile. Find him, ask him anything, and let’s keep our fields sparkling together.

Hi my name is Dominique! Burning strong since 2022! This year at the Sheep, I’m the Welfare Co-lead (again), and now together with Bianca (yeey!). We will create a safe space for you to retreat if necessary. There are still some open spots on sign up to volunteer with us! See you on the Plaaaaayaaa!!

Making Signs since 2015 for BMNL
For now I can make Signs if there is a demand for general Sign of the organization. Please let me know in time so that I can start on time. Please send me a mail, what you want – and the size.
In the past I painted all the sign boards, like the icons of all the Principles that can be seen at the gate. But also the signs for the Temple of Centre Camp and boards with the Camp names etc. and all the sheep that are painted on wood.

FAST lead, I’ve been burning since 2005 (100+ regional events including 7 trips to TTiTD). I met Bigfoot at the Tennessee Regional , To The Moon, and after talking him into volunteering with our FAST team at 3 other regionals, he convinced me to help start a FAST team for WtSS. I’m very excited for my first international burn!

I will play Tetris with the container and help that all BMNL items are going to fit in there. Also that everything is packed and the black flock city is gone in no time.

Burning since 2013. What initially started as a bucketlist thing has since then become a very big part of my life. Love seeing the amazing things we are capable of when we come together! 

This year i will use my power to make sure all water points are functioning properly. As the former build lead i have experienced how much magic we can create together as burners. I hope to create the coming home feeling for other burners like i experienced during my first shifts at the sheep. Excited to meet you all in our Black Sheep City!!

One of those multi-facetted beings, riding the waves of the cosmic ocean between heaven and earth. In love with creating life, discovering Self(s) and translating inside out what needs to be seen and heard. From heart to heart. From soul to soul. With a touch of sweet edginess. Burner since 2019 which broadens and nourishes my horizons again and again on different levels. As part of Comms I am happy to give something back.

I’m here to get the best out of everyone and keep an eye on everything.

As Center Camp Coordinator for WtSS 2026, I’m the guardian of our social heart. My mission? To dismantle the spectator mindset and foster a laboratory for connection, where co-creation and radical self-expression fuel the flame. If you’re in Center Camp, you’re part of the show. Welcome home to the beating heart!

My name is Minke. 52 years old. Fluffer at the Sheep. The first time I’m in. I come to take good care of everyone. I’ll make sure everyone is okay. Drinking, eating massage? haha… greetings

Hi beautiful creatures!

I came for the party. Stayed for the community. In this edition I’m supporting the community with the preparations for Black Flock City. A safe and transformative space where we come together to celebrate the magic of immediacy.

“We burn each year, yet no fire is ever the same. And neither are we.”

Hi wonderful people! I am Jasper, your DMV lead. I am so excited to see your creativity in art on wheels and to get the magic started. I love to learn, connect, create, explore and experience as much as possible. As I learned in my travels a human life is to short to experience it all. Last year I had a one person mini burn at the Black Rock Desert and this year I’ll make sure everything rolls smooth at our sheep!

I’m Nanc — Kitchen Lead during build & Newbie Lead 🔥

As Newbie Lead, together with Prissie I’m here for the newbies: all the sheep who are going to a Burn for the first time or joining the Schaapjes for the first time.

New, curious, a little overwhelmed, or just looking to connect?
For questions, guidance, or a bit of sheep-to-sheep support, we’ve got you 💛

First of all, Nancy and i are the newbies leads. We share informatie and at the 16th of may we organice the newbie picknick where not only newbies are welcome. At the building we are also your place to be. We will provide you of the energie you need during the build with breakfast, lunch and diner and alll the between.

I’m Emily, proudly retired Fluffer turned Head of Toilet Affairies! Burning since 2017 with Communal Effort as my favourite principle. Every year I’m amazed how the community steps up and what we create together. After years of roaming the land with snacks and drinks to keep our volunteers going, I’ve now taken on a new mission. Making sure our báá-throoms are just as cared for as the flock itself. Because let’s be honest: there is no better gift then a fresh bathroom when nature calls!

Burning since 2014. As generators are not allowed on the terrain Where the Sheep Sleep is one of the few burns to provide you with a bit of electricity (power hungry camps need to communicate!)

We are aiming for a safe and functional infrastructure to make the lights bright, the music blast and the art go bzzzzt! Lots of help needed with build and strike as this involves a LOT of LONG cables to run out!

During the event we also needs some people to keep the lights burning. A bit of technological knowledge helps a lot, but we will show you the ropes!
