It faces westbound traffic on I-80 so Burners leaving Black Rock City, potentially on their way to Reno to fuel up or fly home, will see it. “Everyone going to Burning Man wants to have fun, and no one wants to leave the playa with more than great memories,” said Michael Weinstein , AHF president and cofounder.
“We want everyone to use condoms and practice safer sex, but it still is a good idea to hook up with a free, convenient, and nonjudgmental AHF STD testing site across the country.” In addition to HIV/AIDS testing and treatment, AHF provides free STD testing and treatment at 39 Wellness Centers in 14 states nationwide, plus Washington, DC. Two of those Wellness Centers are in Nevada and five a.
