It’s a Map

Consider this map your first peek behind the curtain.  A work in progress that gives you a sense of what LOF 2026 is shaping up to look like. Everything is subject to change, so hold those details loosely while we keep building the dream. We’ll keep you posted as things come together, and a full map will be in your hands when you arrive on site.

Placement Update: We’re On It

Placement is in the thick of the placement puzzle and trying to honor as many requests as we can. Honest heads-up: this new land is hilly and wooded, and flat open space is the scarcest thing we’ve got. Not every camp will land exactly where, or next to whom, they hoped. Come in with flexibility and a little grace, and we’ll work with you to make your camp land well.

You’ll start hearing from us directly the week of July 6th.
One thing to flag now: some RVs and trailers will be able to camp with you, and some won’t. The terrain and grade make the difference, and in a lot of cases we won’t know for sure until we’re standing on the spot with you on-site. Plan for the possibility that your rig lands in a designated RV area instead of at camp, and register your camped vehicle (link in Reminders above) so we can plan around it.

Volunteers

We need volunteers in many CRITICAL positions! Sign up for shifts! We are 55% full. Volunteer shifts are filling, but we still have a long way to go. Many critical shifts remain understaffed, and Lakes of Fire depends on community participation to make the event happen. 

If you haven’t signed up yet, please take a few minutes to check Volunteeripate and claim a shift. Every volunteer hour helps, and every filled shift makes the event stronger.
Don’t wait until you arrive onsite-sign up today!

Fire Rings for Theme Camps

As we settle into our new property, please note that there are currently no permanent fire rings available on site. To help support Theme Camps that would like to have a designated fire feature, Lakes of Fire is offering fire rings for purchase through Volunteeripate for $70 each.

Theme Camps that purchase a fire ring will have two options:

• Take the fire ring home at the end of the event
• Arrange for Lakes of Fire to store it for future use

If your camp plans to purchase a fire ring, please have one member of your camp use the add-on feature in Volunteeripate under the ticket tab.  Additional details regarding pickup, storage, and coordination will be provided to participating Theme Camps.

If you have any questions, please email Land@lakesoffire.org

Gray Water Collection

We’re pleased to offer a new gray water disposal option at the new property. The Org will have clearly marked 55-gallon drums available on-site for gray water collection. Participants may dispose of their gray water in these designated collection drums rather than packing it out at the end of the event.

Please use only the labeled gray water collection drums and help us keep the surrounding area clean. Additional information about drum locations will be available closer to the event.
As always, Leave No Trace principles apply. Please be mindful of what goes into the collection drums and help us keep our new home beautiful.

PSA: SHOES are a must!

A quick heads-up about getting around this year, our roads will be covered with chipped wood from debris clearing, which is a bit different from the finely ground playground wood chips you might be used to. We recommend wearing thick-soled shoes whenever you’re out and about on the roads to keep your feet happy and your adventures going strong.
