Camp showers!
One of our camp offerings is a dedicated shower space with safe and ecologically responsible wastewater management.
In 2022, we utilized a pump and a small heater (which we never needed!). We also offer that space for use with the more traditional Camp Shower Bag.
The shower will consist of an enclosed tent along with towel racks, shoe changing deck and supplies storage all on a raised platform. It is not handicap accessible.
Shower notes
-
Bring your own water, separate from your water commitment for community use. To maintain sanitation and safety standards, only drinking water from unopened containers should be used. Others using the shower will thank you knowing only pure, clean water is in the system.
-
Clean up after use. Please do not leave wrappers, or small bars of soap, take them with you or trash them. Pick up the shower floor of any debris even if you didn’t drop it.
-
Please remove your stuff after using the shower. If someone leaves consumables such as shampoo, conditioner, body wash etc., behind without marking, they will be considered community property, and free-use rules apply. However! Please make sure it is properly removed at the end of the burn.
-
Take your towels and washcloths when you are done – Like consumables, these items will become community items if you abandon them.
-
Absolutely NO wastewater dumping in the shower. No, repeat NO dumping of human waste in ANY part of our gray water processing system at ANY time! Dispose of human waste in the porta potties.
-
The shower is open for operation 24 hours a day.
-
Please use our shower system inside the Twisted Swan Camp. The village of Poly Paradise shower is for those campers only. We are unable to provide showers to folks not camping with us. The village of Poly Paradise offers a unique experience, as one of their Playa gifts is the Human Carcass Wash (HCW). The public may participate in the HCW experience if they desire.
-
The Swan shower may be shut down without prior notice. If conditions warrant, we may close the shower system before the final shutdown on Monday.
