2025 ORPHANAGE!We BUILD better Burners Our camps create the interactivity that is critical to the Burning Man experience. Interactivity planned for 2025:
We are NOT a Plug & Play camp! All of our campers are expected to PARTICIPATE in making the magic that is Black Rock City. If you’re looking for a P&P or tunkey camp, do us all a favor and go to Coachella or EDC…….. |
2017. Was that hot AF or what?! Seriously though, I don’t think we’ve ever experienced a hotter Burn. That didn’t stop us from having one hell of a time, though. Since it worked so well for us the previous year, we once again combined the forces of OE and OT to create the Orphanage Village. We were even placed in the same location of 7&C! ‘Lil Orphan Annex was out at its calm location of 7&K. To beat the heat, we really upped our game at the Orphanage Bar by having a daily menu of specialty and bespoke cocktails, as well as a selection of fine beer and cider. Vodka infusions were a hit at the bar as always, and we even hosted Orphan Annie’s Shimmy Academy on the dance floor, where participants could learn the Electric Slide, the Cupid Shuffle or the Cha Cha Slide! Captain Ron brought back his Hippie Fishing Hoist, and a new bawdy activity: Swinging Dicks Bowling Alley, where participants knocked over Drumpf adorned bowling pins with dildos in a stocking. You can imagine what a hit this was with passersby! Our annual Supper Club really warmed our hearts and bellies, and one of our German camp mates even made fresh pretzels! The Germans really stepped it up this year because they also brought the Spielmaschine, an interactive video game, and they even helped build a shrine around The Temple of the Golden Spike, where the Man was housed! Lil Orphan Annex garnered a little reputation for its Snow Cone Karaoke, especially on those sizzling hot days.
The "HEART" of the ORPHANAGE
Orphan Endorphin in 2022 is a camp for those who have already camped with one of our camps in the past. "Noobs" can apply for the camp but must be sponsored by a member in good standing. Our campers are the lifeblood that keeps the interactivity going and the beer flowing.

A suburban outpost
Li’l Orphan Annex offers a peaceful retreat for our quiet-seeking campers who still want to participate in the Orphanage activities. We are laid-back, friendly folk who take pride in our radical self-reliance, while enjoying each other’s company. We encourage new members and experienced burners who prefer a little more independence.
The Annex offers a large community shade shelter to escape to blistering rays of the SUN and a fully-equipped kitchen. We reserve land in rural Black Rock City, where your chances of getting a decent night’s sleep improve. There is NO shower or evap pond, and NO tent shade.
