I’m organizing 4 different rewild camps in the NW; Seattle, Olympia, Portland and Eugene. I’d love to come to Vancouver and make it 5 camps, pending on travel/gas time. (sorry Californians! Hopefully the year after next!)

Each camp will take place on over the weekend and we’ll be spread out over a month (with a week between each one so I can travel back to Portland). This way I won’t get the crazy road trip feeling, and people in each place will be able to get work off easier maybe.

The month/dates are TBD. I’d like to get my research done and save up some money to run these things before I figure out when I can pull it off.

Security Culture Alert:
I may/may not be filming this event. I’m trying to grow these gatherings outside of the normal anarcho-punk scene so I will be sending out press releases and papers may show up to take pictures. I know a lot of people are uncomfortable being photographed for security reasons, so keep that in mind if you want to attend. I will try to provide bandanas for people to cover their faces with (so as not to push away those super security conscious folks) but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to muster up the cash.

What I need:
1. I need some folks to help me with research in each location.

2. Specifically, I need to know where parks are that lie central to the city, have drinking fountains and bathrooms and a sheltered area.

3. I’ll need someone to tell me what all of the local papers/news channels are in town, and send me their websites. This is so I can send out press releases.

4. I need people who have skills to share for free/trade. The idea behind these events is to “unlock” the knowledge of how to live sustainably from the monetary economy, and build communities in the process. For more on that philosophy see my “Schooling Vs. Rewilding.”

Skills can include really just about anything with a focus on rewilding; martial arts, story-telling, edible plants, primitive skills, etc. You get the idea!

5. I need 1 or 2 point people in each location to help with the organizational elements.

It sounds like some of you are interested in that, if so please send me an e-mail at urbanscout [at] gmail [dot] com

Thank you so much!
