Theme Camps at Deception?

What Is A Theme Camp?

Theme camps are a collection of like minded individuals devoted to a concept and offer an interactive experience to its visitors. Theme camps can offer a wider range of ambiance and activity.

You are encouraged to register your theme camp prior to the event, to ensure you get a location and the space you require. Registering your camp will also allow Recycled Rainbow to include your camp in the online theme camp guide.

Theme camps are required to follow the same guidelines as everyone else, they are required to pack out everything they pack in and are responsible for any structures they build.

Theme Camps At Deception?:

A few new things for this year:

Unless you are using your car as part of your theme camp, cars will be parked in a parking lot area away from the Downtown/Invisible City. You will be able to drive to your camp site and unload gear, but once that is done, we ask that you move your car to the designated area. We are anticipating a lot more people this year and space will be at a premium. Your cooperation is most appreciated.

Also please make sure you have measured out the space you will need for all the people in your theme camp, including space for tents, common areas, structures, etc. Please don’t guess a space size, or you may have to negotiate with/bribe your neighbors for more space.

The Deck A.K.A. Carol and Suzie’s Coffee Stop

Come and join Carol (Dudas’s mom) and her best friend Suzie every morning as they serve up coffee and tea to all who stop by between 7am and 11am Friday through Sunday morning! Start your morning off right with a hot cup of Joe, the best tea selection at RR, and stick around if you like for some conversation to get your brain going! The deck is 12×20 and is the first merger between a theme camp and a permanent residence at RR. The Deck will also serve as a daily information zone where you can post any event you may have dreamed up for that day on our grease and cork boards. Get the word out! Special events on the deck will be annouced at RR and include a High Tea party on Friday, A Haiku only open mike bongo poetry hour, and Sunday morning….is that smell….bacon? And Mimosa’s!! PS, the only thing Carol loves to share more than her tea is her wine, so stop by anytime someone’s home for hospitality, some info about the day and good conversation.

Fortunes and Fibers

Come join us for Tarot Card Readings and a place to pull out your yarns or sewing or other fiber arts.

Knitting, sewing, spinning, weaving, all have been community events for ages. We invite you to join us for some shade and to share techniques. We will have spare yarn and needles if you want to learn how to knit. We’d also love to teach you about Mindful Knitting, the art of knitting meditatively; as well as how to use yarn and other fibers to be able to dispose of stress and cares.

If you’re not into Fiber Arts, take a moment to contemplate the ages old art of Cartomancy: divination from cards. We’ll tell you what’s in the cards for you with a simple three card reading to look at your past, present and future or you can request a more detailed and nuanced reading.

Gaia Ashram

Touch the earth, breath in, breath out, light up each chakra, and fly. Gaia Ashram is a sacred and safe space, and welcomes and supports all faiths. There will be numerous events, including a fire and drumming every night, meditation every morning, and games designed to make you laugh and connect with the person next to you. Feel the sky above you, the people around you, the ground beneath you, the vibrating energies surrounding you. Come, join in, reset, teach, learn, listen, be.

Tactical Theater

Tactical Theater has a rich history of being the center of Recycled Rainbow’s media subterfuge. Come expecting a strange and awkward, yet comfortable and pleasing time.

We intend to confuse, delight, endear and slight our visitors with a barrage of audio, video and shadow-puppet stimulus.

Oh… and there may be cookies.
