PolyParadise has always prided itself on its Cleanup & Recycle efforts.

In 2010 we noted we had RED spots listed on the 2010 MOOP MAP.  We have not received any feedback from the Playa Restoration Team or anyone else from 'The Project' to indicate what these areas corresponded to.  It is a shame that they do not communicate these issues to Theme Camp's so that we know where we need to improve.  It is our best guess that these might have been areas where our carpet ripped up portions of the Playa; areas where it got rained soaked and or areas surrounding the Gray Water Collection system. For 2011 we are replacing carpet with Canvas Tarps, but if it rains again from the heavens we may need to 'Rake' the playa to have it more of a smooth surface when we leave.  We will also be placing canvas tarps under the entire shower & gray water collection area to better protect the Playa surface.

During breakdown of camp on Monday, the generator will be turned off as all electrical cables are being pulled.  On breakdown day all remaining waste water will be poured directly into the top of the Holding Tank. 

The Gray Water & Trash Areas are both clearly marked and as each new camp member starts to unpack they are reminded of their location and their use. 

PolyParadise has an appointed Trash CZAR who will coordinate the efforts of all Camp Members in following the LEAVE NO TRACE rule of BM, and coordinate with the TRASH CZAR prior to leaving the event and our campsite looking for and picking up MOOP (Matter Out of Place).

Each camp member is expected to take some Community Trash home with them and to dispose of it in the proper manner in an appropriate facility or container when you return to your respective home locations.

You are expected to donate at least 2 hours of your time before you leave the Playa to cleanup of the PolyParadise site as well as the general state of BRC.

PolyParadise was awarded the Theme Camp Of Day Award - '01 & '02 presented by the Earth Guardians. This was in recognition of both our Water Reclamation Project and Trash Recycle & Separation.
