Rebo Hassell is the head of camp, weaving together the various elements — registration, marketing, programming, support teams — into one cohesive, fully envisioned whole that will allow all members the community to have the retreat experience they’ve been dreaming of.

Rebo lives in northeast Washington, DC, where she is a relationship mediator and conflict coach. She also leads Women Uncorked (a women’s sex discussion group) and twice a month circling groups.

She is passionate about community building and reducing shame around sex and different relationship styles and orientations.

Ming will be collecting and sharing information before, during, and after Camp, as the registrar and more.

Ming dreams of a newer and improved culture here in these Ununited and Altered States of North America. Ming loves synthesizing various styles and senses into a breathmaking experience for all who choose to be involved and revolved.

Ming can be seen and heard moving and grooving. They rarely sit still. Lately, however, they have been observed sitting quietly, but not idly by – as they seek to bring people together harmoniously and sustainably to create a better present and future reality.

Apollo is taking his first turn on the Programming team for a New Culture event, helping to hold the container for our journey together. He’ll continue his work on the Empathy Team and Forum Team.

Apollo has at various times run for state legislature, been a leader in a state polyamory organization, and led week-long workshops in sacred sexuality. He's an initiate and active member of Mankind Project; professionally, he’s been working the past 10 years on “The Pattern”, a popular astrology app. These days, he facilitates Cuddle Parties, Shamanic Breathwork and Forum in his home city of Chapel Hill.

Through it all, Apollo remains engaged with the question of how we shift ourselves, our subcultures, and the broader culture to embrace the more humane, connected Heaven on Earth that our hearts know is possible.
