I wanted to share the basic plan for Sunday, which is a national Wiknic 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 the end of that:

I've added some ideas for the virtual Wiknic here, for Sunday August 16::
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiknic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiknic
*Community history of the Great American Wiknic *A cultural exploration of picnics, knowledge and society *Food and cooking demonstrations, share your own local specialties *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 it on the video stream *Pub-style quiz
And here is the proposal for the centralnotice banner, if you'd like to chime in there:

Thanks, Richard (User:Pharos) _______________________________________________ Wikimediaus-l mailing list Wikimediaus-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaus-l
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.
Thanks, Richard (User:Pharos)

Inspired by your brainstorming on topics,

what'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! ;) ]

Hi Neal and everyone,
Maybe you would like to host a "Mountain West" breakout room on Zoom or your preferred platform for the second hour, like other regions are doing:
