Hi Folks:

There had been talk a while back about trying to arrange a
Community_Managers_PDX event at the Community Leadership Summit. Most
likely there isnt' time for anything formal...but perhaps we can
arrange to connect at some point at the event for those folks who want
to come together...and maybe we can provide support for folks from out
of town who need to guidance in getting the most out of their visit to
Portland.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
Ann

========================

Below is Jono Bacon's email about the event, for those that didn't
receive it directly.

to bcc: me
Hi Everyone,

For those of you who don't know me, my name is Jono Bacon and I
founded the Community Leadership Summit and organize the event with my
fellow team of organizers.

This year we are excited about another exciting CLS, and the event is
shaping up to be a wonderful weekend of sharing best practice,
experience, learning new techniques and approaches, and otherwise
furthering the profession and art of community management and
leadership. CLS has become a wonderful event for not only learning and
sharing knowledge, but also for networking, and meeting new friends
and acquaintances.

The event takes place from Sat 14th July 2012 - Sun 15th July 2012 in
Portland, Oregon. You can find out details of the event at
http://www.communityleadershipsummit.com/ and the list of registered
attendees at http://www.communityleadershipsummit.com/attendees/ - you
can also find travel information at
http://www.communityleadershipsummit.com/travel-hotel/

I just wanted to follow up with some further details about the
event...

> Schedule <

The doors open for the event on Saturday 14th July 2012 at 9am and
there will be plenty of coffee. The opening plenary will then begin at
10am and scheduling will start shortly after that. For those of you
new to CLS: the event uses an un-conference format in which the
attendees can volunteer sessions and drive the content of the event.
We do this from 10am - 11am on each day.

Everyone who leads a session will be provided with a free print copy
of my book The Art of Community (thanks to Adobe for contributing
these). :-)

Remember: you will need to be there at 10am to contribute session
topics and participate in shaping the schedule.

You can see the full schedule at
http://www.communityleadershipsummit.com/schedule/

> Presentations <

This year we are going to have some after-lunch presentations (each
one being 15 minutes and of general interest to the attendees). You
can see the schedule of presentations at
http://www.communityleadershipsummit.com/schedule/

We still have a few presentation slots open - if you would like to
volunteer to do a presentation, please drop me an email ASAP with a
talk topic and title.

> Social Events <

On the Friday evening before the event (13th July 2012) we will be
having a social gathering at Spirit of 77 500 NE Martin Luther King Jr
Blvd. Portland, OR 97232 from 7.30pm onwards - we hope to see you
there.

On the Saturday evening there will be a social event, and we are just
finalizing the venue. We will have more details soon.

> Spreading The Word <

While we already have an awesome list of registered attendees, we want
to ensure we can get as many folks to the event as possible so we can
have as much diversity and participation as possible. If you folks can
blog about the event and point people to
http://www.communityleadershipsummit.com/ as well as Tweeting with
#cls12, that would be wonderful! Many thanks!

> Questions? <

If you have any further questions, feel free to get in touch - I am
happy to help! Thanks!

Many thanks, and look forward to seeing you at the Community
Leadership Summit 2012!

Jono

I am organizing a party for Saturday, and there's no official sponsor for the get together on Friday night. Perhaps we can do something in conjunction with either?

That sounds cool...

Do you need anything to do that. We don't really have a kitty /
budget. I gave $100 last time...but that was out of my pocket. I would
be happy to make a personal donation to help offset the cost of your
event either Friday or Saturday....which would you choose as the event
to have this group sponsor...your call.

Let me know what you're thinkin'?

Thanks!
Ann

Hi Everyone,

Originally I was hoping that we could somehow participate as a group at the leadership summit, but have been too busy. I was hoping to continue doing our community manager meet up, but don't have the time anymore. Maybe this fall I can start the meetups again or someone else can.

Cheers

Kerry

KERRY: Totally understand the feeling, No worries...Thanks for all the
support in resurrecting things.


OTHER CM PDX GROUP FOLKS:

For the Community Leadership Summit next weekend:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Perhaps we can put up a little identifying sign at the Friday or
Saturday party to self identify, once we figure out from Nate which
event we should officially sponsor.



Future Events:
~~~~~~~~~~
We'll just attempt to keep things going as we can. I'll see if we can
keep up the 3rd Tuesday schedule....but perhaps begin in September
since the Community Leadership Summit is this month and so many people
go on vacation in August. I could use the support in the work I'm
doing as a CM now, and may be looking for alternative positions at
some point soon. If anyone knows of CM positions that are open, please
do let me know! :-D

Thoughts / Ideas from others?

Cheers,
Ann
