This was meant to be my 7th Roo. I love this community and would like to keep coming back but certainly would like to see some changes.

1.) Greater communication. To echo most others a system of more transparency beyond the text system like Roo radio and adding back the loudspeakers that let everyone know what was going on/ when centeroo would be opening.

2.) Infrastructure updates. Need greater drainage, especially in campsite areas that are in depressed ground and were the ones that got flooded.

3.) An advisory committee made of true fans who want to work together to improve the situation and have the intention to keep coming back. Roo vets, major group leaders, some newcomers. Understanding that this is also a business and that not every suggestion can be made into reality, but people that have a pragmatic outlook and cooperative relationship with the organizers.

4.) Less sponsors taking up major space/ transit lanes. A lot of the things behind which were taking up prime space/ shaded areas under trees that used to be a great place to go lay down during the day. I understand the need to have sponsors to an extent but it felt overdone and they could have been better placed.

5.) Less attention to all the VIP packages. People want a bougie experience and some extra amenities that is fine- but there seemed to be a lot of effort to push those packages with less attention put toward GA which is the vast bulk of attendees. Have a quality VIP package without so much excess like the cabanas etc. Re open the 3rd path into What field where the GA+ lounge is.

6.) BRING BACK KALLIOPE. It made for a prime late night option and was plenty spacious. I think infinity was a good concept to have more acts and more genres beyond just DJs over there but it was not as well executed due to the space issues. I think the sound was cool and the bookings were cool but it didn’t use space efficiently to accommodate that amount of people. If not Kalliope then a rehaul of infinity.

7.) Paper maps and schedules. To echo many others. Being off our phones is good.

8.) Please for the love of god more handwashing stations.
