A Time of Rememberance, Reflection and Revelry


Join us thursday, august 30th, as the Black Rock Travel Agency hosts Snow-Play, a little soiree held in honor of our late friend, Berk Snow.

Berk was a true citizen of Black Rock City. His gift of flight, and his penchant for offering that gift while adventuring out in the city, are the stuff of legends. We intend to honor Berk the way he lived his life; smiling, laughing and reaching out to everyone he met to share his love of flying.

We will start gathering at the David Best temple at sunset, or thereabouts. We'll be forming a caravan of the people actually camping at the airport about an hour before sunset. when we arrive at the Temple, we will leave the tail-mounted strobe light lit on the airport limo so everyone arriving from elsewhere in the city can locate the group.

Please bring a photo of Berk or a printed story you want to share about him. We will be posting the fotos and stories in the Temple so everyone from BRC can enjoy them before sunday night's burn.

Also please come prepared to be good ambassadors of Burning Aviation as there will be an underlying theme of outreach here, as well as a touch of Irish wake for our good friend Berk. Be ready and willing to share stories, wine and the joy of flying with all who pass by and ask what we're doing. BRTA will provide some snacks and beverages, but we need everyone else to help with this too. Bring a bottle of wine, some food, cold juice, good vodka, whatever you have to share with everyone else who strolls by. We'll have vehicles on-hand to transport coolers, kegs or whatever manifests.

Invite your friends and your campmates, get involved and we'll all spend some time together remembering our friend and spreading a little cheer and goodwill. At some point we'll wrap it all up and head off into Black Rock City filled with good thoughts and happy memories to share, just like Berk did.
