Camping with the Turtles - Orientation 2025
Actual Orientation
- This year we are at 7:00 & Ellison, at the heart of the queerborhood.
- We are in a hub called Rainbow Village. The other camps are:
- Gender Blender (long time time trans, gender queer, gender variant, gender nonconforming and other nonbinary camp)
- Camp Beaverton (long time lesbian camp)
- 8-bit bunny (mostly gay)
- Slightly Conscious (used to be Gymnasium, now without naked oil wrestling)
- Queertirement (small camp with last generation's leaders of the queerborhood)
- Gayflower training film
Turtle Responsibilities
- Strike (starts noon Monday, break for temple burn. Nobody leaves until camp is moop sweeped, expected 3pm Tuesday)
- Shifts (newbies who miss shifts: sponsor must fill in). Missing shifts is really the only reason turtles have been kicked out.
Turtle Spirit
- If you see a turtle doing something, just help them
- Nobody should come into our camp without being greeted
