you mean by “a longish meeting.” When Michael Pannwitz and I did
the 2108 German Shrinks we had no tables or chairs. And if it is Open Space you
wouldn’t have tables anyhow, I hope. We used the sort of pads they give
out for football (Soccer) games. Everybody just sat on the pad on the floor. But
that was just during the opening and closing parts – which meant they
were not on the floor for all that long – maybe 1 hour and a bit for the
opening and an hour for the close. </span></font></p>

would appreciate your help. Next week the StoryWeaving Design Team meets
to dream and plan together for recording and sharing stories
and hosting rich, strategic conversations among the 10,000 or so delegates
and visitors at the 2008 Girl Scout National Convention. This
time around, large group collaborative methods will be
interwoven into the 3 day business meeting (which includes delegates
voting) at the National Council Session. </span></font></p>

of our biggest challenges is physical space. In a previous posting, I got
wonderful feedback suggesting that we create more space by eliminating
tables. Picture 1500+ circles of six. Have any of you ever done a
longish meeting with small circles but no tables? If so, what did
people do with all their stuff? This group will be laden with artifacts
they pick up in the exhibit halls, notebooks, personal items, water, etc.</span></font></p>
