Reminder! We are working on plans for Micro Camp 2021, and need your input on time zone availability so we can craft a schedule that is as inclusive as possible.

Please take the survey and let us know what works for you.

@jean this might have been good to share in an email…

@ChrisJWilson @jean this might have sounded mean and I didn’t intend that. I really appreciate all you and Manton do. But I could have missed this but probably would have seen an email.

@ChrisJWilson Oh I didn’t think it was mean! I thought “Good idea. I wish we had thought of that.”

I’ll make sure to post reminders in other time zones today.

@ChrisJWilson @jean Good point. If we were still sending weekly newsletter emails, that would've been a great place for it. When we have the official announcement with times and other info, an email makes a lot of sense.

@jean I'm really glad to hear it wasn't viewed that way. I wanted to make sure as I know I can adopt very direct Polish communication styles and the internet isn't great for transmitting nor receiving the spirit of the message. I know I've missed announcements over challenges before and then suddenly realised one was going on. Once again thanks both (@jean @manton ) for the great job you do. The virtual Micro camp sounds very cool! Can we make s’mores?

@ChrisJWilson When my son was in seminary two of his fellow seminarians were from Lebanon & Palestine. One day he heard them having what he thought was a heated argument in Arabic, then found they were just having a conversation. To understand a language & culture we have to learn the rules of tone & expression, not just formal content.

@ChrisJWilson And someone needs to write the camp song to sing around the fire. 🔥⛺️

@jean Yay! I'm looking forward to this one, it sounds great. Went to the survey, but I'm unable to fill it, I have absolutely no idea what I'll be doing, and at what time, for those dates at the moment. Glad @ChrisJWilson mentioned email, it would be great to get one regarding the event, when all is settled. I too fear I might miss the announcement...

@jean ohh this sounds interesting. Please can there be a way to listen again, if sessions are missed.

@maique It’s not a commitment, just an idea of the hours that work for you in your time zone. That way we can cover a variety of times for live sessions that can work for people around the world. Your input will be valuable!

@maique @Chrisjwilson There will definitely be at least one unofficial source of news about the event via email. 👀
