We want your panties!
Panty Camp needs your panties!!! Panty Camp is on it's fourth year of providing the citizens of Black Rock City with clean undies. Last year we gave away nearly 100 lbs of panties (that's around 1000 pairs, if you're wondering). We rely on donations to run our camp, and, once again, we find ourselves running low in our panty supply... so send us your panties!
But wait; there's something in it for you...
Send us 6 or more panties and we'll send you one back with "The Man", wearing a pair of panties, of course, printed on the butt!
Visit http://www.pantycamp.net/donate.html for more details.
