I'm (cross)posting this on behalf of the organisers:

Hi,

Camp Trans needs *you* to help organize for 2006.

Camp Trans is:

*Trans-centric, especially trans woman centered
*An amazing bunch of trans folks and trans allies
*An incredibly cool venue for Trans performers and allies
*The Midwest's #1 activist training for trans activism
*A weeklong getaway in the woods of central Michigan
*A really cool party
*A co-operative and collaborative effort
*Feminist in a way that values All Women-no exceptions
*Anti-racist, anti-sexist, anti-classist, at least we try to be
*A Trans Bi Lesbian Queer and Gay friendly space
*Paid for entirely by donations and fundraising
*A weeklong source of free vegan food for our participants
*An activist effort to open the Michigan Womyn's Music Festival to all womyn
*Very changeable- CT recreates itself in new ways every year

Organizers work year round to make this amazing event happen.

Organizers should be:

*Willing to commit at least a few hours every week
*Able to attend Camp Trans the entire week of August 7-13
*Able to work and play well with others
*Willing to compromise and collaborate
*Commited to trans-inclusion
*Feminist in a way that values All Women-no exceptions
*Anti-racist, anti-sexist, and anti classist
*Trans Bi Lesbian Queer and Gay friendly
*Diverse. Members of oppressed groups are encouraged to join
*Willing to work hard and have fun at the same time
*Devoted to making Camp Trans the best it can be
*Enthusiatic!!!


Together we will work hard, play hard, and create something pretty spectacular. If you even think you might want to help organize, contact us at ctorg2006@yahoo.com for more information.

Thanks,
lorrraine
