Re: [OSList] OSList Digest, Vol 73, Issue 3

[anne stadler via OSList]

Same basic elements:
Circle (preferably in shade!!)

Agenda Wall (either constructed; or outside building wall; or fence)

Colored Mr Sketchy pens and 
8 1/2" paper for posting offerings

Numbered Post-it notes to put on offerings.  I usually color code: Different 
color for each breakout start time. 

Numbered signs for breakout spaces that people can carry and mount so others 
can see.

It could help to have wireless hand held mike. I've mostly done without.  But I 
have loud voice.

Important to have spaces clearly delineated: table for art supplies, paper, 
pens, tape

Numbered Signs mounted on sticks for people to carry, or already in the ground, 
for breakout spaces.

Agenda Wall with OS info posters; plus schedule & map of locations.

It's really a great way to open space; because people are more likely to notice 
patterns in nature that inform or mirror human patterns, and you also get the 
benefit of silence cause people tend to sink into listening and noticing. 

Let us know what you learn.  Xxoo Anne

Re: [OSList] OSList Digest, Vol 73, Issue 3 open space outdoors

[anne stadler via OSList]

One thing i notice about the info I posted below, it's not "remote location".  
It's in places where you can use tables chairs etc.  And it's ALL based on the 
experiences of doing OS outdoors here in US and in India.

AND you could do this in remote place.  Just bring writing materials and a roll 
of blue tape, and clothes line & pins for hanging offerings on-- or lay them 
out on ground where people can walk/stand around & read them. The elements & 
principles are the SAME!! Law of two feet and Four principles, circle, 
marketplace!!!

Re: [OSList] OSList Digest, Vol 73, Issue 3 open space outdoors

[Diana Larsen via OSList]

Last year we stacked picnic tables vertically on their ends on top of other 
picnic tables to create a wall for the marketplace at an outdoor OS event in a 
campground. Turned out it came in handy for storing paper & pens too. 

Creatively use whatever you find at hand. Get many hands involved in solving 
the problem. 

And everything Ann said. 😉

Re: [OSList] OSList Digest, Vol 73, Issue 3 open space outdoors

[Birgitt Williams via OSList]

I will just add a little story. The location was a 'hill station' in
India...in other words quite high in the mountains but these mountains are
dwarfed by the Himalaya's in the distance. About 80 people. The biggest
challenge was the outdoor wall space we used for posting reports. The
reports were written up on flip chart paper. Reports were essential for
this corporate retreat as budget allocation and some other strategic
choices were to be made from the outputs.

We had a lot of monkeys in the environment. I don't know what kind but they
were about 3 feet tall, so not so tiny. A few hung around very close by.
When Ward was posting a report, taping it down well, the monkeys watched
him intently. As soon as he turned and looked at the monkeys, they quickly
looked away, grooming themselves and appearing the best version of 'divine
non-chalance' I have witnessed. When Ward turned back to the wall, the
heads of all of the monkeys quickly swiveled to watch what he was doing
again. This pattern continued on for a time. The event took place for an
afternoon followed by two days.

Once the last report was posted, we all took a break and no one was at the
wall. In seconds, monkeys descended and took all of the reports from the
walls.They ran in every direction. Participants started chasing them to
retrieve the reports and the game was on in earnest. This was the time we
discovered that monkey's could swim.the lake was right beside us. With
reports clenched firmly in their teeth, they swam, thus gaining distance on
their pursuers. When it was done, after way too much excitement, all but
one report had been retrieved. The missing report was the one on *staff
retention*.

I can imagine this meeting having been in a more uptight business
environment, in a country where there was less tolerance for the
unexpected. Thankfully it was in India and in true and beautiful fashion,
the loss of the report was forgiven. One of the primary dieties in India,
Hanuman, sometimes called the monkey god, was apparently at work, or so it
was concluded in the closing circle. Apparently Hanuman needed the
report...maybe having staff retention problems of his own and wanting to
tap into the wisdom generated in this circle.

Blessings,
Birgitt
