GHOSTSHRIMP IS AN INDEPENDANT ORGANIZATION. WE ARE MADE UP OF GHOSTSCOUTS. WE EXIST FOR TWO REASONS OF COMPLETELY EQUAL IMPORTANANCE. ONE: WE ARE INSPIRED BY OTHERS AND WE INSPIRE OTHERS. TWO: WE PASS OUR TIME DOING THE COOLEST THINGS WE CAN IMAGINE.

OUR CURRENT HEADQUARTERS IS 1000 FEET ABOVE SEA LEVEL ON MYSTERY MOUNTAIN. WE CALL IT CAMP GHOSTWOOD. CAMP GHOSTWOOD IS HAND MADE BY GHOSTSCOUTS. WE GET ELECTRICITY FROM SOLAR PANELS AND A GENERATOR. WE STORE THAT ELECTRICITY IN OUR BATTERY BANK AND USE IT IN MODERATION TO DO OUR WORK. WE GET OUR WATER FOR DRINKING, COOKING AND WASHING FROM A NEARBY 3 SEASON STREAM. WE HARVEST WOOD FOR OUR WOODSTOVE TO PROVIDE HEAT IN FALL AND WINTER. WE GROW VEGETABLES IN OUR GARDEN. WE POOP AND PEE IN A COMPOSTING TOILET. WE PUKE WHEREVER WE NEED TO. CAMP GHOSTWOOD IS A SMALL EXPERIMENT IN UNCIVILIZATION AND SELF RELIANCE. IT IS A FORTRESS AGAINST ARBITRARILY ESTABLISHED WAYS OF LIVING. IT IS A PLAYGROUND FOR ALL THAT IS INTIMATE AND PERSONAL. IT IS OUR FIRST ORGANIZED EFFORT TO CREATE A WORLD FOR OURSELVES THAT WE WANT TO LIVE IN. OUR NEXT LIFESTYLE PROJECT WILL BE GHOSTSRIMP VILLAGE. GHOSTSHRIMP VILLAGE WILL EXPAND UPON THE IDEAS OF CAMP GHOSTWOOD IN A DIFFERENT GEOGRAPHIICAL LOCATION AND ON A LARGER SCALE. IT WILL BE PLANNED, DESIGNED, AND BUILT BY GHOSTSCOUTS. IT WILL BE A MONUMENT TO CREATIVE PRODUCTION IN ALL ASPECTS OF LIFE AND FUELED BY INDEPENDANT ENERGY SOURCES. IT WILL BE A MEETING PLACE FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED IN OUR LIVES. PEOPLE WILL COME AND GO AS THEY PLEASE WITH NO FEE OR RESOPSABILITY OTHER THAN TO PARTICIPATE IN DAILY ACTIVITIES WHILE THEY ARE PRESENT. ANYONE UNWILLING TO PARTICPATE WILL BE THROWN INTO THE REPTILE PIT. THERE WILL BE PRIVATE RESIDENCES AND PUBLIC BUNKHOUSES. THERE WILL BE A MUSEUM OF GHOSTSHRIMP WORKS AND A VISITOR CENTER FOR CREATIVE LIVING. THERE WILL BE A MOVIE THEATRE AND A KICKBALL FIELD. THERE WILL BE SECRET PATHS AND TREEHOUSE OFFICES. THERE WILL BE POISON MOATS AND HIDDEN FORTS. THERE WILL BE BICYCLES FOR EVERYONE AND GARDENS FOR GARDENERS. THERE WILL BE EVERYTHING WE IMAGINE AND MANAGE TO MAKE. THE SECRET MISSION OF GHOSTSHRIMP IS TO LIVE AND WORK WITH ENOUGH FORSIGHT TO BE ADMIRED BY OUR GHOSTSCOUT GREAT GRANDCHILDREN WHO WILL IN TURN EMBRACE THEIR OWN IDEALS AND INSPIRE OTHERS TO DO LIKEWISE. ANYONE WHO STANDS IN OUR WAY WILL BE COMPLETELY AND EMBARASSINGLY DESTROYED BY THEIR OWN LACK OF VISION.
