That's right it's our fifth anniversary and we've got a ton lined-up for you. You've really kicked things up a 'couple notches and it's all very exciting!
CHOOSE YOUROWN ADVENTURE!
This years theme is CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE! Experience SOAK* as a time traveling adventurer. Do you choose to go to the Burlesque camp, or the Orange L'ounge? Be careful, you may be sucked in to a wormhole or left in a hypnotic state! Or perhaps find the bunny love you've been looking for... what happens next in the story? It's all depends on the choices YOU make.
Yep. That's right. Two-fer-one special this year. A new tradition. We'll have an @ppetizer burn on Friday night, along with the Man burn on Saturday. The @ppetizer burn will be in the upper field this year. We'll have a processional as we make our way up to the field.
And the Man Krew has been hard at work to bring you another stellar burn on Saturday night. It's going to be a real treat you won't wanna miss. Yah, it's a full weekend.
