HeroCamp ("Good apples come from good barrels.") is a gathering of heroes wanting to make ... more heroes. Over a period of 4 days in Houston, from October 23-26, 2008, a group of people who dedicate their lives to making the world a little better everyday will gather to launch a project that answers the question: "How do we inspire others to be heroes?"
In order to narrow down the question, the organiser have chosen to focus on ways of creating this program for school kids.
An outline schedule is as follows:
- Day 1: Intros and brainstorming: Introductions, presentation of everyone's ideas, whiteboarding, setting goals, boiling things down to a really great basic planning. Evening: BBQ and Beer.
- Day 2: Fleshing out the ideas: More whiteboarding, brainstorming and figuring out exactly what we are doing. Nailing down 'the plan'. Evening: Tacos and Tequila.
- Day 3: Getting down to brass tacks: Execution, building a website, designing a brochure, making the message and the program clear enough for anyone to pick it up and run with it. Evening: Fancier dinner somewhere that we can dress up for.
- Day 4: Spit and Polish: Finishing up on Day 3's execution, making certain we've covered most angles, setting out a promotional plan, etc. Evening: Collapse in elation.
Organiser Tara Hunt explains it better than I can.
