Overview of AutoSub:

11 years as AutoSub, 3 years precursor, always on Esplanade, 40-45 people, Dues: $390 before Firefly/$440 after, part of Boston Hive- 200 people village w/ 8-10 camps, AS has 30’ dome, aerials, dance parties, “thanks for building the dome party” Monday, (last year 50 events in the dome), hosted Reddit meet and greet, sundown beer toss, group space- quonset huts, full kitchen, family meal every night, campers do kitchen shifts, steam bath, slide off the dome,


20’ container in Gerlach


What do we want to do this year:

- Refine not expand!

- EFFICIENCY


    • Damon: Ownership of tasks is efficient, good for camp


- Documentation is key, camp is lacking, better labeling of bins and pieces


- ALC group purchase in June


- quonset hut instructions by Kubo and Doug on the way


- Standardize event schedule


- Encourage hive camps to use the dome to tie in the village


Specific wants:

- Netting in the dome needs replacing this year


- Record sets played in the dome(!)


- Audio equip needs better protection

potential project- dj booth


- People stay assigned to one pod? (except for kitchen)

reminders? how to discourage flaking?


- monetary penalty for no shows? more work = less dues

        - what do other camps do?
        - Ask Tawny- Disorient


- Postcard mailing event is BIG DEAL


- LNT problem last year- fresh water leakage


Fundraising

- Last year: Smoke n Steam- Pete, daytime, beer/food, possible date April 27.

       -Harbor Arts wants art in the shipyards! Could have SnS there?


- 55 gallons of mead ready for bottling for fundraising


AutoSub identity:

“What could possibly go wrong?” Logo? Theme would possibly help with buy-in, but there’s a lot of discussion around the need (or lack thereof) for this
