Regional Contacts
Michigan
We have about 100 Michigan based burners on our Yahoo group and we invite
you to join us and help stir up the conversation. We've been a pretty
quiet region, but there's talk in the air about starting up a Fall Decompression
camping event in Michigan. We're talking about naming our mascot "Rust
Belt Man" and welding him together out of found metal pieces and
fueling him with propane flames. He'd burn, but not fall down...an appropriate
metaphor for Detroit, the home-base area for many Michigan burners.
We welcome your input, creativity and joy on the Michigan Burner list
-- stop in and say hello. Or, stop by Snowflake Village on the playa to
find some Michigan burners in person.
