Thank you very much Anna. That's a real honor. I'd be happy to chair the
Open Spaces organizing committee. However, if you or Trey know of a less
experienced volunteer from 2017 that could benefit from the chance to take
on a leadership role more than I, I'd be happy to let them take the chair
role. I'm thinking of Zak, who built the twitter bot and did a lot of the
work this year. I'd assist/mentor them to keep things running smoothly in
Cleveland.

Hey Hobson!

That?s awesome, I?m excited :)

I think it would be good for someone with experience to chair the Open Spaces so I?m glad you are volunteering to do so. I?d be happy to add Zak to our team since he did a wonderful job with the Open Spaces bot. What do you think? Do you want to reach out to him and ask?

Thank you!
Anna

You are appreciated.
You are enough.
You matter.
You are not alone.
