Ok! Time to stop living off the hype of #emfcamp and actually share what I did. Doing it on masto makes sense for a first post as it's all what finally got me to set up here too!

@emf is quite literally too big to cover in one go so I'm going to just keep chipping away at this thread 🧵

Feel free to use pics with attribution, especially if you're the person who made/did it!

Day 0. Arrived after some traffic, got my tent set up and immediately dived into some volunteering on directing campervans around safely. Pro tip for the smaller tents: survival blankets will even out the temp (more on this later)

The whole of #emfcamp is run by volunteers from start to finish: build, org, run, talks, phone lines to elder gods, installations, infrastructure, all of it. If you volunteered you are an awesome person.

A quick bit of tape for who I was and I was set for the weekend

Day 0 #emfcamp
A month of rain falling one day before a festival makes for interesting logistics (shout out to all those building up during this for being amazing). Fortunately EMF attendees seem to be prepared for quite literally anything...

During my shift I overheard part of a conversation that made me smile:
"This is basically all the people who'd rebuild after an apocalypse. EMF would be the best survivor camp."

Hard not to agree when you walk past things like this!

@FroggyMakes Yes! It wasn’t my gang but we’ve had that conversation plenty of times!
