2593. <p class="">It’s hardly a burn if we don’t burn something down Saturday night, is it? Well we’ve determined the theme to be Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. We open the floor for build plans. We’re going to run them by our FAST team to determine which would be the best to safely burn down. </p>
2594.  
2595.  
2596.  
2597. <p class="">Keep in mind we want our effigy to be interactive for the community during the event, and additionally, we don’t want it terribly tall as then we have to plan a lot more for its safe burn with a lot more people on perimeter.With those key points in mind, please join the fun and steal the show so to speak. It’s the main event. &nbsp;</p>
