In case you missed it, we chatted about the new site, finances, volunteer needs, and plans for the upcoming year.
Attendance Myschievia 2025 had 624 attendees, which is significantly fewer than past years. Likely reasons for the lack of attendees were that many people thought it wasn't going to happen last year and some were tentative about the new land. We did need to cap it at 650 last year because of a lack of critical volunteer slots filled. After discussing with other burn organizations, it was noted that attendance and volunteer numbers were down a hefty percentage at almost every burn last year. New Land We had some up and downs but the transition to Llama Land has been a success so far! The downsides:
Event Recap and Incidents The trial of fee-based early entry was a success! Since we have to pay per person, per day at the site, early entry for theme camps came with a cost per head. Those who paid it seemed to think this was fair and we didn't have too much of a cost to the org for those theme camps who wanted to get started setting up early. There were a small number of incidents:
Volunteer Needs Volunteers remain the backbone of Myschievia. Last year, the community contributed 5,714.5 volunteer hours between land prep weekends, build weekends, and on-site volunteering at the event. Thank you to everyone who volunteered! Currently, a small core team carries most of the workload. Last year’s Mys nearly had to be canceled due to insufficient volunteer support. If we don't have the numbers again this year, we will be faced with this difficult decision again. We ESPECIALLY need Batcave volunteers!
