Hey folks, I just wanted to create this thread to see if I can pitch the idea of possibly helping the Lizard Tree Library build some new facilities while we're there for the 2016 gathering.
While we were there in 2015, there was a serious fire ant problem which caused a lot of problems when we were trying to cook food for everyone. Also the library lacks a 3-basin wash station, so I would like to propose we build them one (I'm hoping this will help with the ants?).
By upgrading the kitchen facilities (and trying to come up with a way to combat the ants) I'm hoping we can make it easier to cook for everyone at the event while also contributing something significant to the Lizard Tree Library and the people that live there.
In addition to that, we're going to have the same admission fee we had last time, which that everyone needs to bring a book (or two, or three... dozen) to donate to the library! For those that aren't aware, the Lizard Tree Library is a free, take-a-book, leave-a-book 24 hour library located in Slab City; and they could use any donations you can come up with!

So if anyone has ideas or can bring out materials/tools to build with, please post here!
