PS: Aging 001 — Invite

Here are the details reiterated from my last note: #

• Time: September 21-24
• Location: North America (Most likely somewhere in the Rocky Mountains outside Denver for centrality between coasts)
• Transportation: We can coordinate carpools if we agree to land in certain landing times at the airport.
• Accommodation Type: This is an example of the type of AirBNB option I’d like to reserve once I get 8 deposits.
• Cost: ~$500 (Food, Lodging, Event Supplies)

Homework: Provide feedback on the questions in this Google Doc. These topics are the types of discussions I hope to cultivate.

What to do next: #

Send me a note to confirm you want to be here.

Let me know before March 15th if at all possible.

For those who are still in, we will figure out something like Venmo or CashApp to take a deposit for the space. I’ll request $100 before the end of March to contribute to holding the location and once all expenses are accounted for, I’ll poke everyone attending for the remainder a couple weeks out from the dates in September.

The refund policy will be liberal, mostly I want to collect early so we have a budget and can start making purchases.

When you book travel, keep your receipt emails so that I know how much to pay back if we’re really successful with sponsorships.

This is important: I don’t want anyone to avoid coming because of the cost. If $500 doesn’t fit your budget, message me and we will figure something out. That might look like volunteering for a couch over a bed, taking a lead on meal preparation or letting me name your unborn child.

From this point further I won’t send any more messages to people that have not replied with an “I’m in” from this or my last note; if it doesn’t work out this year it will work out another time.

Back after April 1st to let you know the final budget and attendees.

It’s time to build.

If you have other conclusions you can reach about how to do this, I am open to it. Send me a note here.
