Namaste and Blessings Earth Tribe Family - Well there is no other way to share this info with you than to just come right out with it. In light of some major life happenings for me I am having to cancel the Village and Dance Stage all together. I am sorry if this disrupts anyone's plans but it is needed for my mental health and clarity. A few things are occurring that have inspired me to make this choice. My family is very important to me. They may be the most important thing in my life. My fam is experiencing a major change right now that I am a big part of. My sister is starting a large hair salon in Downtown Eugene where my mother will work and will own. She needs my help and the rest of my families help in the process of opening this shop. I need to be there for her 100% right now and I feel that if I were to do ET it would distract me from this project too much. This door has opened for my sister at this particular time so I must support her in it. As well I have been having panic attacks for the first time in my life lately. They came out of nowhere and have in a way slowed me down a lot. I did not ask for this to happen it just did. I have to take steps to simplify my life and make it less stress full as these attacks are stress induced. So with that all said it has been a nice run with you all and maybe next year but we will see. For those of you who registered you will be receiving a paypal refund shortly. As far as BM this year ... YES YES YES I will still be going and ET will still be there but in a wayyyy different capacity. And I hope you all can still go. I will be going Monday morning as the gates open to stake out a spot for all of us in close in open camping and be putting up the ET sign there. It will be free and have NO infrastructure. It will be called Earth Tribe Refugee Camp.  Everyone just rock their own deal and lets form a central chill space for sure. Please still come out and be on playa with all your ET fam. I will send out an email with the street we will be on closer to the burn once the new calander comes out.  Drop me an email and let me know if you are planning on being part of ET Refugee camp so I can get an idea of the population and save the right amount of space. Love you all so much and thanks for each of your individual understanding. With all my heart - Neko (Mate')
