A Field Guide to Flags: Navigating Roads, Camps, and Boundaries
As you arrive on our new land for Mycelial Dreams, you’ll notice colored flags and poles marking the layout of our mushroom village. Here’s how to read them: 💗 Pink Poles & Flags – Roads
A Note on Patience This is our first year on new land, and it’s new to all of us. There may be some confusion about where things are, and that’s okay. Please be patient—with yourself, your neighbors, and your fellow mushrooms—as we all learn the layout together. Pro tip: Print a copy of the map to carry with you—it’ll make navigating easier. I also put extra care into the details: the tree symbols on the map reflect the actual trees on site. Follow the flags, set up, and help weave our new city into being! Havok, City Planning Lead  Myschievia runs on volunteers. Myschievia runs on YOU. We still have some shifts open, and we’d love for you to claim some. Here’s where we especially need YOU: Burn Perimeter Need: Saturday & Sunday shifts Hold the line and keep our effigy and temple burn safe while getting the best seat in the house! DMV (Department of Mutant Vehicles) Need: Evening shifts on Thursday & Friday Get art cars inspected and glowing safely into the night! Earth Guardians Need: Saturday & Monday, especially Leave No Trace! Echelon (new role!) Need: So many shifts still open!! Hand out radios and carts! FAST (Fire Art Safety Team) Need: Several shifts still available Be part of the team that ensures fire art is safe for all. Fire Safety Need: The City Fire Team has open shifts all day Friday and several late Saturday and Sunday shifts. Need: The Effigy/Temple burn team needs people during both burns! Join the hottest volunteer team at the burn! MEAT (Myschievia Emergency Action Team) Need: Still has a TON of shifts available! This is a core pillar of our safety. Step up if you can! Spotters for Procession Need: Saturday night Help the fire spinners stay safe! Rangers Need: We need R12s like whoa! If you’ve trained, now’s your moment! Sanctuary Need: Monday needs Listeners Hold space for decompression and healing. Site Ops Need: Sunday & Monday shifts Help with HQ needs and tear-down! Volunteer HQ Need: Several shifts open Saturday Be the smiling face that helps connect volunteers! Zone Guides Need: Evening shifts Thursday, Friday, and Saturday Help newcomers and seasoned Mischief-makers find their place. Volunteering is one of the most rewarding ways to experience Myschievia. It connects you deeper with the community and makes the burn better for everyone.
But what does it get me?
Check the volunteer portal and grab a shift (or three)! The Participants Map for Mycelial Dreams: Weaving the Web of Us is finalized and ready for you! Check out the image below or dive into the full print-quality PDF here: 
 This year’s map is extra special as it marks our first year on new land. It’s going to take all of us to bring the web to life, and the map is your guide to finding your way, your people, and your place. Work Weekend – All Hands on Deck! At the last work weekend, Sept. 26–28, we’ll be flagging and marking everything so our mushroom village is ready for hippies to sprout in the right spots. It’s also a perfect chance to scope out your theme camp’s location and fine-tune your setup. Can’t make work weekend? No worries! You can still help by signing up for a Zone Guide shift during the event to help folks find their way across the new land. What’s different this year?

See you on the land! Havok, City Placement Lead Hey burners! Let’s talk about MOOP! MOOP stands for Matter Out Of Place. That usually means trash, but it can be anything–clothing items, jewelry, food scraps–if it isn’t present on land naturally, then it’s MOOP! A huge part of our job as Earth Guardians is ensuring that the MOOP burners drop doesn’t get left behind to trash the land and affect wildlife (and the llamas!). With just a little awareness, you can make less MOOP and help us keep our burn clear of trash! Our biggest tips:
Overall, just hang onto as much of your trash as you can. We’re all stewards of the land, and it’s our goal as burners to ultimately LEAVE NO TRACE! Plus we want to make a good impression on our new hosts! xoxo, Earth Guardians  Happy Monday, Myschievians! We're only a little over three weeks away so here's some info you may need:
