Staying calm and having a great planning season

Timeline Resources

  1. Early plans at Miro (2022) (note: we didn’t use the workshop schedule planning idea on the far right)
  2. Emails from previous years can give a sense of what needs to be on the timeline (note: we didn’t send enough general announcements to the ThinkTank in 2022, we were too busy planning.  We probably should have sent them monthly instead of in clumps?)
  3. Last-minute plans at crunch time to-do list from 2022

General Timeline Overview

This is a general timeline based on the 2021 and 2022 organizing experience. It assumes that enough resources are now in place to ensure a smooth, timely planning experience.

Prior Event

  • Announce language exchange
    • to keep potential new volunteers involved and engaged

9-11 months before the event

  • Host language exchange weekly
    • Establishes varying degrees of en/es & es/en among potential organizers
    • Keeping people involved between events
    • The next time there is a language exchange it would be cool to work on a mini low-consequence project together
      • Example: creating bilingual bike vocab resources

9 months before the event

  • Schedule initial planning meetings
  • Recruit more new volunteers

  • welcome new volunteers
    • getting to know
    • what are their skills and interests
