We will be at Taku Lake park under the picnic shelter from 1 to 5. I hope to see you all there. This is a unique opportunity to meet one of the men behind BurningMan’s innerworkings. $teven is  a jewel and you should take advantage of this rare chance to meet him in person.
Please let me know if you need any assistance getting to the park, it is an easy location to access by bike, foot or car, located off Cst and Dimond road there are also buses that will get you very close.
Bring a side dish and perhaps something to grill, we will have things to put food on and in and things to eat it with. I will provide water for the thirsty.
In true BurningMan spirit, there will be gifts for all attendee’s. bring your friends and family and dog if you wish, the lake is even stocked with fish.
See you Saturday!
