Founders Bay Brief
Where builders are showing up this week
|
|
Hi all,
I hope you had a great weekend! I’m sending this a day late because I was busy finalizing everything and packing for Burning Man with my camp.

Community Moment
🔥 TITANIC Burns at Burning Man
|
|
|
|
Be part of the 2nd largest burn after the Man.
My community Titanic's End is bringing TITANIC to the playa — two halves of a sinking ship rigged with pyro and lighting. 7+ months to build, 6 days out there, then we burn it down. Learn More →
Want to be part of creating this experience? We need 130 Perimeter Crew for Friday's burn — stand feet from the fire as the crowd falls silent, then erupts.
