Stage Director: Beth Rogers

Beth Rogers is a woman of few words—and definitely prone to downplaying her stellar skills and experience! Beth has helped to produce many festivals and events such as WIMINFEST, the West Coast Women's Music Festival, and KMUD Radio benefits. She has worked with Linda Tillery, Lucie Blue Tremblay, Toshi Reagon and Amy Goodman. She is currently working for KHSU-FM in Arcata as Volunteer Coordinator.

Everyone involved with Camp Betty Campout is thrilled to have Beth as our Stage Director. She is a wealth of information and experience—and a lot of fun to work with (though she'll probably be embarrassed that we're saying that).

We did persuade Beth to send us some pictures for the website (below), though you'll notice you can't really see her in most of them! You'll just have to meet her at the festival.

Beth says, "I am originally from Southern California but have lived in Pennsylvania, Florida, New Mexico and, now my favorite place, Humboldt County, California. I came here to build a house from earth using a technique called 'cob.' In these pictures you can see me working on perfecting my building skills."

"I learned to use magic; when that doesn't work, I resort to a plain old digging tool. Sometimes I take time out to play a game of croquet or to march in a parade."

The person waving is Beth!

"Sometimes I take time out just to sleep, and of course my dog helps me."

"I am energized and excited to be the House/Stage Director of the first Camp Betty Campout, and I hope to see you there."
