I think that an unconference with a video link to WMNY might be fun. We could include Portland, Seattle, BC and NY all in the same mix. Or if the timezone is an issue, we could have an unconference with other PST places, such as San Francisco. (I'll ask the San Francisco folks about their interest level.)

Wikipedia Day is Friday, January 15, 2016. I wanted to find out who is interested in holding observances in our Cascadian bioregion. At a minimum, we should have some sort of meetups & perhaps a Wikicake. If there is interest, we could plan for something on the weekend days.
User:Pharos has indicated that the New York City event for Wikipedia Day will probably be an unconference format, with possible video links from other regions & international cities.
He asks should we do something on Friday January 15, or that perhaps more conveniently that weekend, Saturday January 16 or Sunday January 17?
Some folks have talked about doing celebrations in two or more Cascadian cities on different days, so some can do a mini-road tour.
What are your thoughts & suggestions?
