The urgency is to encumber all the remaining Ford funds (Carolyn is getting exact amount, but around $10K) by APRIL 30. Trainings coming up: are you interested in leading, or co-leading? Please respond to the list by April 23 so we can "cast the show." In MOST cases, the event runs like this: . Friday: strategic planning conversation (process TBD) and dinner; hanging out. . Saturday: 9:30-4:30 RSC Training (agenda to be developed collaboratively) . dinner . evening -- sharing of work; more hanging out. We have a budget to pay facilitators and shadows (ie, people who have applied to be RSC facilitators) + travel. The confirmed times are: June 6-7 in Charlotte -- April Turner, host ?? June 13-14 in Charleston (Gwylene available but probably not able to take the lead because of "The Future is On the Table." June 20-21 New Orleans June 27-28 Atlanta some time in mid-July: Miami and Lexington KY WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT SOMEONE is also on the ground to organize things. (space, food, promotion ---- getting people there (ie, the host) . This is not the job of the Lead Facilitator, as we've practiced it.)
