What is a burn?

Everything and we mean everything has to go, from the empty beer cans and other trash to stray string and cigarette butts. Before you leave, you shouldnt be able to tell you were ever there save for a few matted blades of grass and a smile on your face.

Transformus needs a board clerk, can you handle it?
Written by Administrator   

The Clerk offers logistical and clerical support to the BOD. The Clerk attends BOD meetings, conference calls, and internet meetings. The clerk records all minutes at those meetings, and produces a report for BOD approval and subsequent publication to the Transformus community. The clerk does not have a vote on the BOD but does handle the logistics of coordinating/facilitating all meetings. When requested, the clerk also assists as a resource person for the BOD, obtaining necessary information, etc. The clerk functions as the liaison between the Planning Committee and the BOD. This is a volunteer position.

My Virgin Burn or What I Did This Summer
Written by Amy C. Barker   
The next morning, we were awakened by cries of "BAAAACCCCOOOONNNNNN!!!!" Fabulous. It was really early, and I distinctly remember BubbaJohn  getting on the megaphone and reminding everyone loudly that quiet hours were still in effect in Narnia and to respect your neighbors by being quiet. Irony AND bacon? Awesome!  This announcement was followed by more cries of "BBBAAACCCOOOON!" And thus, the fun began.
