1. Introductions
- New Event Hosts Gary Robbins
and Geoffrey Palmer introduced themselves to group. Discussed what we can do to
help one another host fun, safe and successful events.
- Discussion on how
should we communicate thoughts and suggestions between face-to-face
meetings? How can we accommodate
those EHs who can not participate in a face-to-face meeting?
- The new website is seen
as a good tool to communicate with each other. Sibylle pointed out that there is a
forum and she will create an Event Host Forum available exclusively for
Event Hosts.
- Review
"coaching" assignments (which experienced EH’s are assigned to
new EH’s. Are the parings
good? Are coaches and newbie’s
communicating?
The pairing did not work out as planned.
The new Event Hosts were not aware of their coaches or had not yet
been assigned a coach. It was recommended
that the Event Host Forum serve as a coaching forum for all EHs and that
it be set up so all EHs are alerted by email when a question is asked.
2.
New Website
- What do you like?
In general, it was felt the new website has been a great improvement from
the old site. The look and feel is
friendly and conveys our mission. Navigation has improved. New interactive features like the
forums, ability for users to post stories and comments, upload photos are
a great community builder. Some EHs
even created their own websites! - What do you
dislike?
- How the site looks in different browsers, especially on Microsoft Internet
Explorer and on differently sized screens.
Some pages show a blank space in the main body and users need to
scroll down to see content, photos “push
