Contribute/Meetup/SF Dec 2013

Overview

Community builders from across the project, both paid staff and volunteers, will meet for 3 days in San Francisco from December 11-13. The purpose of this meetup is to collaborate on shared goals and plans to support all community building efforts across Mozilla in 2014 in order to move forward with growing the size of the community to one million Mozillians in ten years.

Format

The first day will focus on celebrating what we've accomplished in 2013 and identifying where we are now and what needs to get done in 2014.

The second day will focus on coming up with solutions and creating plans to put resources in place that will be needed.

The third day will focus on applying these resources to deepening and broadening contribution opportunities in 2014.

During the Camp it is expected to heavily tweet, take pics, post on all social networks etc :) Please use #growdec2013 for all of those! (we will be doing mashups after the event, so bring on those pics!)

Random Ideas Box

During the Meetup, we'll be coming up with A LOT of ideas. Some will be good, some will be not so good, and some will be AWESOME. We'll have a special wall where people will be strongly encouraged to scribble down any idea that comes up and post-it.
