So, it turns out the tipi adventure is not over, in fact, it has just begun. On January 24, 2009 a bus was purchased. This bus a 1991 International 3800, previously owned by the USMC, will carry Tent(ative) around the country and possibly out of the country. Sarah Witt and I are in the process of creating proposal packages and finding sponsors to support the expeditions. We hope to visit summer camps, year round schools, arts organizations, and public spaces.
The bus itself will be converted to WVO (waste vegetable oil), a sustainable fuel. This process is simple but costly. The conversion is in the $2000 range and requires filters, heaters, and extra fuel tanks. The price is worth every penny. If you are able, we are accepting donations at this time. The bus will bring hours of educational potential. DIY workshops everywhere we go. If you have any suggestions of where to go, please!! send them.
