Hi!
Application deadline: June 30, 2023 23:59 EDT. Apply here!
This is a regional retreat for ACX & Rationality meetup organizers who run meetups in North America closer to the Atlantic than the Pacific (east of the Mississippi river). We'll be meeting in Boston, Massachusetts, United States during Labor Day weekend (2023/09/01 to 2023/09/03). Funding / grants for expenses is unfortunately not covered at this time, we are selling tickets to cover the cost of this retreat.
Why: Grow this region's active rationality & ACX meetups, help onboard new or less experienced organizers into the community, share tips and best practices for organizing, and have fun! See also the Why from last year's global retreat, but this year focused on the North America East region.
You are invited to apply if you:
Currently organize ACX/LW/rationality meetups or other rationalist community events anywhere east of the Mississippi river.
Would like to start an ACX/LW/rationality community in a city where none exists, or where the community has been small or dormant for a long time
Formerly organized ACX/LW/rationality meetups and are interested in sharing your knowledge and experience
Live outside of this region but are an experienced organizer who happens to be in Boston during Labor Day weekend. (These type of spots may be limited)
Please see the application form for further details.
Who am I?
My name is Willa, I used to run meetups in Houston, Texas before moving to Norfolk, Virginia where I currently run meetups. I currently work in healthcare & do enterprise technical stuff for medical applications. I attended last year's Global Organizer's Retreat, learned a ton, and found that to be an inspiring & fun experience.
Cheers,
Willa
