Maybe the Colorado usergroup would like to sign up to host a Mountain West breakout room?

Thanks, Richard!
Inspired by your brainstorming on topics,
*Community history of the Great American Wiknic *A cultural exploration of picnics, knowledge and society *Food and cooking demonstrations, share your own localspecialties
*Introduction to regional Wikimedia chapters and usergroups *Breakout sessions for different regions and cities *Call in from from a local park or natural site and share iton the video stream
*Pub-style quizwhat's going on in Colorado? What might we share? Who might want to share?
We sure have some photogenic places to call in from!
Slides of past wiknics?
COVID in Colorado?
Brainstorming about COVID-related impacts on society and the future of gatherings, wikipedia, collaboration? Something about frontiers?
Shall we host a breakout session? And/or join together with the inter-mountain west or the like? Huh - I don't see any other user groups in neighboring or close-by states.... Is there a map of areas represented by wikimedia user groups? Or metadata for locations of user groups? In wikidata?
Ok, I'm off on tangents already.... [Wheee! What fun! ;) ]

We would invite people to one or two representatives from each usergroup
to share on the national livestream in the first hour, and
you can optionally host a Zoom or similar meeting for your region in the
second hour.

I wanted to share the basic plan for Sunday, which is a nationalWiknic broadcast on Youtube etc at 3pm Eastern, regional
community breakouts on Zoom and other platforms at 4pm Eastern(where chapters and usergroups might be interested in
hosting them), and perhaps an optional global text chat at theend of that:
