Darkwad Patrol
The mission of our theme camp is to increase nighttime safety in BRC by reducing the number of injuries and damage caused by collisions with inadequately lit burners, bikes and structures. Each participant approached will be treated with respect, kindness and love. We will be gifting lights to dark burners and their bikes, etc., engage in community outreach efforts to increase awareness and promote self-reliant mindfulness about the importance of remaining visible at night, encourage re-usable and renewable, highly visible lighting options, and discourage one-time use, moop-generating forms of lighting (i.e. glow sticks).
