Camp Acculturation: What are my other camp member requirements?

Cook One Meal Once for 25 people: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner (Preparation, Serving & Cleanup), You need only 'Contribute' for only meal, but encouraged to do more if you are so inclined. You only need to cook once for 25 people; then enjoy the rest of the weeks food (You can always cook for more than one meal if you are so inclined). Couples can choose to do a meal together. We will have multiple campers doing that each day @ each meal | there will be plenty to eat and a clean Kitchen.

For groups of one/two/three campers we require a meal to be cooked for 25 people.  To be fair and to make sure that all meals are covered and have an adequate number of meals being cooked; If you are a group of three or more I will require at least two meals for
25. What I do not really want is for your group to all cook the same meal for 50 or 75; yes the food will be eaten but the real issue is making sure that each meal is covered and that all meals have an adequate amount of food available.

5 Gallons of Water/Vehicle - Running of the Human Carcass Wash / Community Drinking water. If you can bring additional water that would be greatly appreciated.

Take At Least TWO (2) Bags of Community Garbage Off-Playa - Be responsible  and dispose of this garbage in appropriate receptacles.

Follow the LEAVE NO TRACE rule of BM, and coordinate with other camp members prior to leaving the event and our campsite looking for and picking up MOOP (Matter Out of Place)

THE CAMP DOES NOT HAVE SPECIFIC CAMPERS/VOLUNTEERS TO OVERSEE THE KITCHEN, TRASH, LNT, CAMP ICE RUN ON A DAILY BASIS. 

See
Volunteeratoldism™ YOU WILL BE RANDOMLY ASSIGNED (1) SHIFT ON JUST (1) DAY. THERE WILL BE AT LEAST (5) CAMPERS ON ANY SHIFT ALL WORKING TOGETHER TO COMPLETE THE JOB/TASK.

THIS SCHEDULE WILL BE PRINTED ON A LARGE POSTERBOARD WITH INSTRUCTIONS ON WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE/MONITORED.
