Dear Villages,

we hope you are as excited about camp as we are. And it's coming close now!
We've compiled some relevant information for you:

First Come First Serve
…is valid only for the ticket shop, on the camp itself we are living
together in friendship and harmony and share all our valuable resources for
a lovely experience. If you place your tents with large gaps you may have
to move them again or accept tents in between. If all the power sockets are
gone you may have to unplug some of your fancy equipment for your
neighbours and so on. And always, be excellent to each other!

Space
We've tried to find a suitable place for all the big villages that
registered in the wiki with a focus on their special demands and the rented
tents. In the end the actual situation on site will be the main factor, as
there are many obstacles on site. Don't forget that space is limited in the
physical world.

Your placement
You might have found this map already: http://campmap.mazdermind.de/ (Be
aware that people are contributing their own stuff to that map already. If
you do so do it at your own risk, changes made there may be ignored on site
if need arises.)
The assigned area is only a rough spot, not any kind of private area only
used by you and your village. It all depends on how much people you guys
are actually (and really!) going to be and what fancy equipment is beeing
brought to the camp. We have tried to keep spare spaces in all areas for
dynamic growth and shrinking and for all those small, unplaced villages and
people without any village.
Keep in mind, that your tents should be anchored with stakes shorter than
30cm/11.5 inches. Also digging deeper than 30cm / 11.5 inches is not
allowed due to safety reasons.


Village isn't placed yet?
We don't want to dictate all the space and placements, so we only helped
the big villages in finding a place - and especially those villages with a
rented tent (that isn't able to move). If your village isn't placed yet,
you have free choice from the spots left. We left some space everywhere on
the whole campsite.

Cars on the campground
As a rule of thumb: we don't like cars on the camp site. Cars will be
permitted during daytime for buildup or resupply, but the access will be
restricted by the entrance crew.
Caravans (or other cars used for sleeping) will be allowed on the
designated caravan area or, if actually used for housing children, on the
caravan area near the family camp ground.
Cars on other areas, for example in your village, are ONLY allowed if they
are an integral part of the village setup or design.
For example: A camper packed full with a mobile radio station with roof
integrated antennas is allowed, or your mobile hacker/makerspace in that
old firetruck of yours. Any car that is used only for storing stuff,
cooking on that small integrated kitchen or beeing the anchor for your tent
or flag pole shoud definitely park outside.
If your car is a part of your village please keep in mind that you should
arrive during buildup time and leave only after the end of the camp.

Power and Water
Please don't forget that we are still camping on a field. Yes, we are
hackers and therefore there will be power (how can one be without?). But
all that power is produced on site. Help us and reduce our ecological
footprint (and costs). Don't let it stop you from bringing cool stuff, but
please make it power efficient. Similar with water, every liter of water
that stays unused will reduce the amount of waste water we have to buffer,
process, dispose and pay for. Our infrastructure is limited, so check the
needs of all those people around you for a pleasant camp experience. (If
you blow one of the big fuses or even bring down a generator your
neighbours will probably notice it.) As for now at least one hackerspace is
providing rental power equipment [
https://events.ccc.de/camp/2015/wiki/Static:Power/Distribution].

Supplies
We will provide an option for buying crates full of water, Mate or beer [
https://events.ccc.de/camp/2015/wiki/Static:BOC/Central_Ordering]. You can
buy single crates on site or, if you or your village is interested in
buying more than 10 crates, please contact boc at lists.ccc.de for large
orders. There are many stores[https://events.ccc.de/camp/2015/wiki/POIs] in
Zehdenick, and we do have bars[
https://events.ccc.de/camp/2015/wiki/Static:BOC#Bars] and different
varieties of food on site.
Btw, as it apparently wasn't clear for everyone: There is no problem if
your village is cooking for yourself, like one usually does in a
hackerspace: Everyone gives a bit, everyone gets a bit. Please keep in mind
that you should not cook for the purpose of generating money. Do not sell
any stuff to refinance anything. So please make sure that every moneyflow
in your village is a donation for whatever consumed, and not a way to pay
your camp tickets or tent rental (amongst other things) ...


Sessions/Workshops
Workshops are sessions, and sessions can be many more things. Please use
the wiki [
https://events.ccc.de/camp/2015/wiki/Static:Self-organized_Sessions] to
publish whenever your village plans to do any kind of session.

Tickets
At the moment no tickets are available any more. Please keep an eye on
https://events.ccc.de/ to get to know when there will be a last batch.
Please tell your village-members who haven't ordered a ticket so far to do
so, too.


Be excellent to each other!

lacce from your village team
