📍Arrive between 8:30-9:00am. You'll enter on 15th Street, where you'll take the elevator up to the 9th Floor from the lobby. Grab your name tag at the registration table, and enjoy some coffee and food.
🎩 Bring your full-self, and dress comforably. Business causal or comforable is totally fine.
💻 Laptops welcome. We'll be note-taking and brainstorming in a shared (digital) document during the day. Feel free to bring and use your computers or tablets, and step out if you need to take a call.
🙋You won't be a passive audience member. This is a small convening meant to help us learn, foster new ideas, and define shared goals and strategies for the months and years ahead. And while focused on water data and state efforts, attendees represent a range of sectoral and disciplinary backgronds; so the day will be highly participatory, collaborative, and focused on action.
