If you missed our Summer Town Hall, it was a great success! Lots of snacks and drinks, theme camp info booths, new leadership announcements and -of course- we decided the theme for Myschievia 2022!  From the theme presenter, Minnie: ~We always talk about “going home”. When people arrive we say things like “welcome home” and I got to thinking about what home really means because it’s different to each and every one of us. The dictionary defines "Home" as a place of residence, a place in which one’s domestic affections are centered, any place of refuge. It’s that last one that caught me. A place of refuge. For so many of us, Myschievia is one of the only places we feel at home. At the heart of it, coming home is where you can be most vulnerable because you feel safe and all your senses are fed. Coming home is about you. Home is not a structure, it’s a feeling. Home is the deepest part of ourselves, it’s where we find our heart and souls.~ Do you have goosebumps? Because I have goosebumps. What about the Effigy?What about the effigy, you ask? We're running a bit behind schedule this year (thanks to wavering Covid guidelines) but the LLC is accepting effigy proposals. Get an idea together and send it here as soon as you can! The sooner they accept a proposal, the sooner we can get the META team together and start building. For more information on Effigy guidelines, check out this blog post here. Don't forget your tickets!LOTTERY REGISTRATION CLOSES JUNE 30TH AT 11:59PM CST Make sure you register and send in your vax info to register for your GA entry! Did you know about art tickets? Art tickets are 100% guaranteed entry tickets until they're sold out. That means NO LOTTERY REGISTRATION. And all the proceeds from the purchase of art tickets go directly to art grants! If you need more info on the requirements to register, the link to register, ticket costs, or art tickets, check out the ticketing page! Whew! Lots of information but I think that covered everything for the moment. We'll be keeping you updated on new developments so keep an eye on the Myschievia Discord and Facebook pages!

Ticket Prices are as follows: General Admission Adult and Critical Volunteer tickets: $100 Children aged 3-17: $55 Children Aged 0-2: $0 Art Tickets: $150 First announcement is that we have updated our COVID policy for 2022. At this time, we will be requiring proof of vaccination to attend Myschievia 2022. You will be required to submit proof of vaccination, including boosters, in advance of receiving ticket confirmation in order to attend. You can view the entire policy at http://tiny.cc/ntxb-COVID2022 We will be honoring tickets purchased for the NewYearsChievia event that was canceled in January of 2022. If you purchased a ticket for that event and did not request a refund, you will be receiving an email with instructions on how to register your tickets or transfer them if you no longer wish to attend. Please be sure to check the email address you used to purchase your tickets originally. No more refunds for the NY event will be given at this time. If you did not purchase tickets for the NY event and you qualified for a Critical Volunteer ticket from Myschievia 2019, you will qualify for a Critical Volunteer ticket for Myschievia 2022. You will be receiving an email to the email address you used to register for your volunteer shifts with instructions on how to register and purchase 2022 tickets. Critical Volunteer registration will close June 30 at 11:59PM. Any unsold tickets at that time will be released to the general admission lottery pool.

Well, Myschievia needs you right back, you gorgeous monsters! THERE ARE A NUMBER OF WAYS TO VOLUNTEER HOLY CROW. Did you know that ALL leadership roles are 1 year terms? Did you know that we LOVE to mentor and teach new skills? WELL NOW YOU DO! We have a number of "open" positions, meaning that the previous lead has stepped down and is making way for other community members! There are also several "Filled" rolls, but please don't let that stop you from applying! Many times the current lead is happy to take a step back or to take a someone under their wing and teach them the ropes. You can apply to volunteer for all of them because they’re OPEN RIGHT NOW! What does any of that even mean??? HAVE A LOOK AT THIS HERE. It explains what the positions are so you can decide how you want to participate. THATS SO FUN FOR EVERYONE “Oh, dang, I like the sound of this one volunteer position, “Wiggler,” but it’s not on the list of open positions,” you may say to yourself. APPLY FOR THAT SHIT ANYWAY THATS WHAT WE ARE INTO APPLY FOR THAT SHIT RIGHT HERE. Hey Myschievians!
Join us at the Myschievia storage warehouse for leadership announcements, an org financial overview, and other community announcements. Due to short notice and limited availability of organizers, this will be an easy-beezy town hall with a more substantive one to follow in the Summer. Help us with the process of dusting off our burn from the pandemic and bringing it back online! Time and location available at the Facebook event page here. Myschievia Spring Town Hall: April 16th, 2022
Apologies for the relatively late notification. We will be holding an abridged Spring Town Hall for Myschievia on Saturday April 16th at the Myschievia gear storage warehouse in North West Dallas. As Myschievia will be rolling over the “Behold” theme unused from 2020, this will be a shorter, more informal Town Hall event. We invite you to come hear some announcements about the state of the event from organizers and get back in touch with community members. More details including precise time and address to follow. Look for an event to be created and shared here: https://www.facebook.com/MyschieviaTheNorthTexasBurn Per our current COVID policy, proof of vaccination will be required to attend in person events. Masks are also required in confined spaces where social distancing may not be possible. We hope to make a live stream available of some presentations. It is with extremely heavy hearts that we must announce that NewYearsChievia 2021 will have to be canceled. We have had a significant number of leads and critical volunteers test positive for COVID in the last week. The Omicron variant is hitting DFW pretty hard it would seem and we do not feel we can safely hold an event given the circumstances. We appreciate all the hard work that has gone into putting on this event, more than you all can know. We desperately want to burn with our chosen families again but it would seem now is not the time. We are still working through all of the details but at this time, we will honor all tickets sold for the next event we hold in future (hopefully October 2022!).
Some of the funds raised for this event have already been spent on PPE and other necessities (which can be used for a future event) as well as equipment rentals and portos. We would also really like to pay the landowners at Armadillo Acres, even if we don’t have an event this time, because we know they depend on events like ours to sustain and COVID has hit them particularly hard. We also have year round expenses such as warehouse storage fees, web hosting fees, legal and accounting fees, and taxes that the funds from the tickets sold for NYE will help sustain until we can have another in person event. It would help tremendously if you are able to allow us to honor your tickets at a later date rather than refunding, and quite honestly and transparently, we simply do not have the funds to refund all tickets at this time, but we will absolutely do our best to accommodate as many refunds as needed. We understand that times are tough for everyone right now so if you would prefer a refund, email here and we can work out those details. We are incredibly sorry that it has come to this only days before the event. We know how much you all have been looking forward to and dare I say needing this time to commune and celebrate together. We hope that you all find safe alternate ways to ring in the new year. Here’s hoping that we will all be together again for 2022! Be sure to get your booster if you have not already.
