Also, looking at https://doodle.com/poll/sgntt6gwdpmxtt5e, there are more people available in October 30/31 than September 26th, albeit only 8 have responded so far. I would also like to have it earlier rather than later, depending on final numbers. For those people haven't responded to the doodle poll yet it would be a good idea to do so before tomorrow's meeting, if they want to participate?
I believe we did have a minute in the past that we agreed to "put aside the 2nd to last weekend in June annually" to enhance Toiora group life, so we haven't stuck to what we agreed, but maybe we can put that in our diaries for future years.
I like the idea of some different types of sessions to "mix it up", and basically having voluntary attendance to some or all of it.
Thanks, Alex

Thank you Gay & Frances for putting these suggestions together.
Can I ask clarifying questions/make suggestions now, or should I hold them till Thursday evening?
If I could ask them now, they would be : ) - must it be Sept 26th when that's only a month away. Waiting longer could mean someone like Kathy from Earthsong could come & facilitate :)
Could we add something low key & relaxing on the Sat night (voluntary attendance) - say a great film with marshmallows (that was off the top of my head, but Sunday's session feels quite 'heavy', & we may need more than an hour's social time to balance this out!).
I'd definitely favour an outside facilitator. The only local person I can think of is Toni McErlane, the NVC trainer now based in Waitati.
PS - isn't the final Con actually a Pro (for an outside facilitator)?
