Saturday, August 7th

Time	Location	Activity	Facilitators
Before 10 am	Wherever you want, see ideas on the main meeting page	There will be a light continental breakfast (fruit and pastries, juice, coffee) at the hotel meeting space starting early, like 8 am. But if you want a more substantial breakfast (and honestly the coffee will probably be not great) you should get that on your own. Lots of great coffee shops nearby, some on the wiki! Alison will be at the meeting space around 9 or so. Come early if you want to hang out! I might also need a little help!
10 - 11 am	Sheraton meeting room	Introductions, icebreaker ("What is currently bringing you joy?"), create community agreements, review agenda and how we're organizing "unscheduled time"	Alison; Ariel and Eva will lead community agreements
11 - 11:45 am	Sheraton meeting room	Relationship-building activity: Given all that we've experienced in the last 18 months, what skills helped get you here today?	Marisol, Megan, Alison, Abby, Sam Lee
11:45 am - 12:00 pm		Break
12 - 12:45 pm	Sheraton meeting room	Future of LFP: sticky note activity charette. In this session, we'll each get a small stack of colored sticky notes. The facilitators will ask a series of questions like "what are our most pressing issues as an organization?", "what are we doing well that we should keep doing?", "what resources do we need?". For each question, everyone writes down as many responses as they want on their sticky notes, and we then stick them to the wall together under each question. Then after the break, we'll take 10 or 15 of the tiny colored stickers, and then everyone "votes" putting those tiny stickers on the sticky notes that we agree with/think are most important. Then we will talk about those things that got a lot of votes, and use them to guide other discussions and sessions during the weekend.Some of what comes from this session will inform our conference agenda in 2022.	Alison, Kim B.
12:45 - 1:30 pm	Sheraton meeting room	Lunch
1:30 - 2:30 pm	Sheraton meeting room	Future of LFP continued	Alison, Kim B.
2:30 - 3:30 pm		Unscheduled time: ideas for unscheduled time are on paper pads
3:30 - 4 pm	Sheraton meeting room	Wrap-up discussion; evening plans coordination
4- 5 pm		Whatever you want; the hotel is very close to the dinner location so you don't need to budget a lot of walking time
5 - 7:30 pm	White Dog Cafe	Group dinner (on LFP of course! please arrive on time!)
7:30 pm - ?	We could go somewhere in the neighborhood and hang out, just depends on how many of us there are. If we're a huge group, I think we should take the bus to Pentridge Station.	Social time

10:30 - 11:30 am	Sheraton meeting room	LFP community culture. In this session, we're talking about the culture in LFP -- who we are, who we want to be, how we want to be seen. We'll identify things that we need to work on as a community, community documents we need, processes, etc. This is similar to the "future of LFP" session, but more internally focused -- it's all about how we treat each other and how we want to be known as a group. Some of what comes from this session will inform our conference agenda in 2022.	Maria, Sam H., Alison

General ideas for the meeting

• Overall acknowledging what we have all been through in the last year and a half, and that we want more than the status quo (including events, field trips, more).
• Hands on or creative workshops and activities, time for socializing
• Schedule flexibility- like people welcomed and encouraged to take the breaks they need to take whenever.
• Accessibility: live captions/subtitles, every speaker using a microphone, built in quiet time.
• No peanuts! Someone has an allergy!
