Let's talk about it .

Let's talk about trash bb,

The first thing I want to point  here is that many of you probably don't even think or imagine the quantity of trash that needs to be carried out of the location at the end of the event, but believe me, what it looks like not so much in the begining, it keeps adding up in piles till the last day. The fact that the location is far away from the city goes hand in hand with the poor salubrisation service in our country(that, when we are lucky to find one). It mostly happens that the truck has to come 2 or 3 times to clear the area. The costs for this bill we have been usually collecting between the Soundsystems, so Sounds!! big or small, expect to talk to us before leaving about sharing this costs in a way that is convenient for us all. We welcome donations from anyone who can and want to help to keep this party as simple and uncomplicated as it is. 

We want here to remind and thanks to all the people that have been, over  the years, staying in the location till the very end, helping with gathering and loading the garbage bags, despite being tired or even smelly after 7 days in the wood. Love and respect!


The second point I want to address here is about the places where the garbage piles will be gathered. We thought many times if we should mark some places where to pile, or if we should do any recycling education between the party goers, but we always like to think that preaching is so old style and we can all self educate, and find ways by taking example from others, in some cases, or by becoming every year more aware of the fact that plastic and other rests simply don't belong in the nature.  And yes, here I'm talking about you my dear Romanian brothers and sisters, and as nicely you have been evolving from year to year into organising your camp, your circles and your activities, you are still very chaotic in keeping your plastics together and leaving a place clean. From using a wet wipe after every little pee, to hundreds of used tampons ( girls sorry but you are disgusting!!), from remembering to bring trash bags with you at the party, to leaving in a hurry and forgetting the trash far in the woods. The big piles of garbage they will form instinctively around the big stages, you can't miss them, please bring all trash bags there before leaving, if you can't bring it with you in the car. We hate collecting tampons on the field, we barely throw a cigarette bud on the floor, intelegi!? There is a small bag for everything and a bigger one for more! If you need to wipe 10 times a day, please, there is a small bag for this too, or at the least use paper, bring a shovel, make some research! Please organise 

So I think it is important to keep it together at all times, our safety comes first 

That being said hope you all have a freekin nice summer!
