Retreat

**NHSTE Retreat: Day 2 (2006)**
August 1st Time: tbd Location: tbd

I am hoping that we can use this space to organize our upcoming //Retreat:Day2//. I apologize that since I am on vacation, I will not able to always get internet access so I will not always be able to look at this wiki daily. Please add your comments and edits. I would like to get this day organized so it is as beneficial as it can be.

I have ideas that I have included here. I'm sure many of you have ideas for this day also. Please edit and include yours. I have tried to include all of our current board members on this wiki. If I have not I apologize! I will check back as often as I can.

-Sheila - we can meet at my house in Hampton, on the porch. . . I know it's a ways for some. . . - Deb - can we build in time for a beach trip.
 * Location** There is no location reserved at this point, so no location availability is secured. Please make comments or add a location idea.
 * 1) We could go back to CACES and have lunch delivered in much the same way we did last time. This cost us $300 for the location and about the same for food.
 * 2) There was talk about other options which didn't happen for us last time, but may this time.
 * 3) We could also go to one of our schools so we wouldn't incur a room fee. My school is available for this.


 * Time** Not sure how long we need until we get the agenda more finalized. Make your comments on this!

Proceedural question from Dep. I just started a new page to discuss some ideas aroung From Good to Great. I don't see the page linked to the home in anyway. . Should I have posted as a discussion instead?
 * Agenda** These are proposed agenda items. Please feel free to add or edit what is here. Also, if you have ideas on how to organize how we work for the day, those would be helpful.

 * Break into small groups for the following items**
