As promised here’s the lowdown on Super Summer Starter…

Super Summer Starter was first incarnated in 2005. Back then it involved about 30 people camping at a friends bach and was a way to blow off steam after university exams had finished. It’s become bigger and better every year since and last year saw the numbers climb to 80, a portaloo was added for the first time in 2007 to supplement the two toilets inside the bach.

This years demand has exceeded the space available for camping so invites have been limited to 150. It’s not hard to see why Super Summer Starter is so popular. At $75 for 3 days and 2 nights of camping, music, fireworks, and good times, with all food provided, we’re getting a pretty sweet deal.

Organisers are likely to break even, if that. This is a not for profit gig organised for friends. It’s all possible because of the generous and talented people organising Super Summer Starter and the amount of time they’ve volunteered. (Thanks guys!!)
