CCista | 26.03.2008 17:49 | Climate Camp 2008 | Climate Chaos

The next Climate Camp gathering is heading north to Scotland on April 5-6.
The meeting/sleeping/socialising will all take place at Carnival Arts
Centre, 34 Albion Street Glasgow. This is in Merchant City and about a
ten minute walk from Buchanan Street bus station/Queen Street train
station. See map here:

Proposed agenda items should be in by Monday March 24th. For guidelines
on gathering agenda items see the following page on the website:
 http://www.climatecamp.org.uk/proposals.php#guidelines

The venue and sleeping space are both accessible. Accommodation will be
crash pad and available from Friday night. Should you really need a bed
for some reason be sure to get in touch. If you do not let us know in
advance, we cannot guarantee we'll be able to find you an alternative.

The organising team is working hard to make the gathering as kid friendly
as possible. There will be an early to bed sleeping space at another
venue, and a kids space throughout the weekend. If you are planning to
bring kids, please get in touch so we can better plan activities.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be provided Saturday and Sunday.
Everything will be vegan and mostly organic. Get in touch if you have
allergy concerns.

We will be asking for a suggested donation (unless you really can't afford
it) of £5 to cover the venue and £10 to cover food. There will also be a
travel pool. The idea is that people with more money or lower travel
costs contribute towards the costs of people with less money or higher
travel costs. Please contribute if you can afford it.

There will be a film night and introduction to Climate Camp on Friday
evening. Also, exciting things are brewing for Monday. If you can stick
around an extra day, bring your bike and join in on a critical mass to a
site of some importance... Alternative transportation will be available
for those who can't or don't want to bike.

It would be extremely useful if anyone planning on attending all or part
of the weekend could let us know. This will help in buying food, booze
and lots of other things too. RSVPs and all other queries/info should be
directed to  gathering@climatecamp.org.uk That is 'gathering' NOT
'gatherings' (the old email address has been nuked).

See you in Glasgow!!

Can you tell what arrangements have been put in place to allow vodeo conferencing or dial ins so that people do not have to travel to Glasgow ?
