I'm not sure my work schedule yet re - can I get Friday October 3rd off, but I could definitely be there Saturday and Sunday (and possibly Friday, when I know more).  Happy to help out

Hi all,

Mark, Naomi and I have been speaking to the Sumac Centre in Nottingham about hosting a HacktionLab this Autumn.  We're still ironing out details, but it looks in principle like it's a goer, so seems like a good time to let the list know and get some input.

Proposal thus far is a potential arrival of Thursday 2nd October evening for two days on the Friday 3rd and Saturday 4th, with some entertainment those two evenings, finishing Sunday 5th, after the Sumac's social and vegan brunch.  We'll as usual look to keep the cost of attendance low.

Benefits of the Sumac:

* It's a venerable old social centre.

* We can bunk down on the floor there.

* It has a bar.

* We're hoping to get Veggies to provide some of the food for us.

* Nottingham is a nice central place in the country, easily accessible by train.  It's a cool city with some excellent pubs, nearby nature reserves, and vibrant scene.

* We'd be in their events calendar and would hope to reach out locally for attendees as well.

* There's a couple of events on at the Sumac, an open mic/jam on the Friday night and the aforementioned Sunday social and brunch that we can incorporate and collaborate with.

Anyway, that's the outline.  We'd be interested in hearing your thoughts and ideas about the proposal.  I certainly am excited and look forward to seeing you in October.

Cheers,


Mike.
