Hi Peggy, <br><br>Yes, you did send this invitation to the list - but since it sounds like it might be hard to find in the Archives, I pulled it out of my old emails and here it is again.<br><br>It feels in some ways like another iteration of the Practice of Peace gatherings, and I am very excited about it!<br>

friends and co-conspirators,</span></p><p><i><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">Many
of us have been experimenting with new forms of organizing and leading for
years and decades. Others are seeking new ways as the old practices are insufficient
to the challenges they are facing.<span>
</span>It's time for us to gather to bring together our experiments, efforts,
stories, wisdom, and questions</span></i><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">. <span> </span></span></p><p><b><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">Please

<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">Harrison uses the term "wave rider" to
describe the kind of leadership and organizational/community capacity needed to
survive and thrive.<span> </span><b>We'll spend out time together pooling our
collective learning about what "wave riding" is really looking like, what are
our pioneering efforts are showing us and what's next.</b></span></p><p><i><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: "Times New Roman";">An
