Suggestions from previous years is to vary the type of workshops available (keeping community bike shops as a component, but less of a focus on community bike workshops as those are less common in Mexico, Central, and South America). If there are similarly themed workshops, its recommended to offer them at different times to allow people in different time zones to attend at least 1 (don´t group them at the same time or close together).

Decision to host B!B!E! 2023

Now that you know the available resources and time commitment, do you still want to commit to making B!B!E!23 happen?

yes

Malibe, Angie, Rachel

First things to do

  • make an announcement that it's happening
  • pick a date and theme
  • meet one more time to discuss themes, dates, announcements
  • this time continues to work for people; check with Aaron?
  • prefer emails or something else? WhatsApp works well; check with Aaron? Malibe will create the WhatsApp group.
  • Rachel is going to send out the email
  • Make sure that meeting minutes are uploaded to wiki


Discord

  • it's not ideal, but it is the best thing we have right now
  • sometimes it blocks people, especially people outside the US
  • might be good for planning communication?
  • if using discord, reiterate to people that they need to check it
