Hello,

This Monday, 6pm, at the Se7en Teahouse, there will be a formative planning meeting for our regional post-playa event.

If you would like to take part in helping to bring this community experience of a lifetime to fruition over the months ahead, please come to this meeting....

....However, this event is about working together, and will always be open to your partipation and creativity, so, please feel free to get involved whenever and however you may, while staying tuned ~

You may also wish to come and take part, or at least keep tuned into the ongoing discussions and consensus over on the tribe.net, at the tribe currently still known as Reno Decompose (new name tbd):

tribes.tribe.net/renodecomposition

If you are not yet aware, www.tribe.net is free to join, and this event's focus tribe is particularly open and easy for the planning of this event between meetings.

All that has been decided thusfar is that this event will be on October 18th, 2008.

It is generally understood that 700 - 1000 people living in and well beyond our region will participate with this event. (Remember how Reno Decompose had somewhere in the vicinity of 650 participants).

The variety and experiences of past Yuri's Nights, Reno Decompose, decompression, recompression, fundraisers, and other events and parties, are the building blocks with which this event is being built upon, and the glue of course is the enthusiasm, reciprocity, and creativity of community participation ~

Thusfar, a few of us have been looking at the venue(s) which will most easily accomodate expected participant capacity, so that there is not a repeat of prior events, where some folks had to wait in line to get inside. Other important factors considered are infrastructure, track record, capacity for variety, location, and minimal costs. A venue(s) may have been found, ...but that is something to be decided at the meeting (or to be found out in the meeting notes).

Other topics currently under discussion:

Theme / Name
Inclusivity and Variety
General layout
Admission Price
Expenses
Donation Recipents
Networking
Publicity
Timelines
We have to burn something ! What, and how to make that happen?
What could Jeff's playa name be!? I personally am laying heavy with "The Wild and Crazy Jeff," but....I digress.

Anyways, again, this meeting is at 6pm, Monday, at Se7en Teahouse, and here is a map link to where the Se7en Teahouse is located in downtown Reno:

Thank you!

Nathan
