For approximately 12ish years or so, and counting, your friends at Synchroni-City have been happy to host the Annual Xmas Tree Burn!
The trees will be torched after after sun-down. This is a
leave no trace, pack it in, pack it out event. Bring a cup!
THIS IS YOUR SURVIVAL GUIDE - SKIM AT YOUR OWN RISK:
COST
This donation will cover the costs of a couple of kegs, porto-potties, and the considerable expense of transporting hundreds of Xmas trees to our location! We recommend that you donate just $15 if you're not using the van service. If you've already paid - thank you! We REALLY NEED people to pony up something for this
event - otherwise we won't be able to do it anymore!
If you haven't already, consider Paypalling the funds for all of your
participants topocketbook@synchroni-city.org. (Don't forget the dash between 'Synchroni' and 'city.org!') Or you can just pay cash at the event.
FOOD& DRINK
Delicious beer will be provided. The rest is BYO.
PARTICIPATE
Bring an Xmas tree to torch! Bring something to drink! Bring something to eat, or some music to play!
Of course, we ask that you comply will all relevant laws, and respect
our fabulous hostess's wishes in all cases. This event is based on
your participation. Help us work on this event, or bring something to
torch, to drink, or to share with the world.
We will also need some help with the cleanup the next day!
BRING YOUR BACK.
We've been saying for years that this event is based on your
participation, and this year we mean it. EVERY PARTICIPANT will be
asked to haul a tree or two from the front of our hostess's property
to the backlot, where the magic happens.
SynchroniCity is officially BEGGING anyone and everyone to help us in creating our fiery sculpture. Show up early enough on Saturday, 2.9.13 to help with our build. We'll be there as soon as we can drag
ourselves out there in the morning, probably before noon. Email me for details.
ACCOMMODATIONS
After the last tree has been torched, we're encouraging everyone to
join us at a local Super 8 motel in Sawyer, MI, and we'll provide a
comprehensive local van service to and from it. We absolutely insist
that you do not drink and drive, and the van service should help you
in that. TIP THE DRIVER! The van service is for everyone who uses the hotel. Please inquire about large group rates directly to me. Or, just book your room, NOW!

SAFETY
Please dress warmly and be safe at the Xmas Tree Burn. Plan for the
worst. Covering your head, wearing long underwear, several layers of socks, and covering your neck are all absolute requirements. And HAVE GALOSHES READY TO GO!
If you have questions, I first suggest that you read the survival
guide again. If your question is still unanswered, you can email me at
this address.
