I am on the bootcamp waitlist. I read in a previous post that their likely won’t be any openings soon after the March 28th invite since many boots are trying to earn tickets to the summer special events. Do you anticipate sending out any invites in the next few months?

I don’t want to be one of ‘those people’ looking to get an exception made for me... but I keep the sabbath Friday sundown to Saturday sundown. Will that be problematic? I’d be happy to do my extra work hours as a boot in the evenings on other weekdays and/or on Sundays.

Thanks for your time,

Hi Alana!

It's always possible that we'll send an invite. We're working hard to increase our capacity to welcome more boots so that it's a comfortable experience for everyone. So keep an eye on that inbox.

You're right -- exceptions are tricky, because when we make one for someone, it can become an endless chain of exceptions for everyone... However, the only work that occurs between Friday sundown and Saturday sundown is our one hour cleaning blitz at 9am Saturday, and we are planning to move this back to Sunday instead. So, by the time you arrive, I believe there will be no issue at all.

Let me know if you have any further questions. You can always purple mooseage or email me as well: lara@richsoil.com

Have a lovely day!
