Re: [Strawbale] ESBG and BBBB



Dear all,

Sjoerd Tilkema: Thank you much for your positive words, and we're sorry you won't join us: To everyone else: If min. 10 more people will sign up, we drop the present 240 E price down to 210 euro (and refund 30 euro to those of you who paid 240 already). Please help spread the word. Register at www.slamenestavitelstvi.cz

As you all likely know a large part of the aim for ESBG 2011 is to be as sustainable (financially/socially/environmentally) as in 2007 in Sieben Linden, which frankly was the best hosted/faciltated large event I've ever taken part of. Thanks to the initial input from 50+ people in our survey, and active involvement of the 15 people in our team + some locals and sub contractors, then everything is moving along impressively and all indicates that everything is going to be excellent: It includes: everything from transport here, bus tour, accommodation, menu, infrastructure, program, conference, concert, E-cohabitat market, and lastly the national open door event in 16 participating SB houses in CR. ...and not to forget we'll build the first public owned SB building in CZ during ESBG; a bus shelter. (Quite impressive list if you ask me!)Â (And that's not counting the 10 day big bale workshop we'll host after the ESBG!). So far we'll be 22 different nations; from Portugal to Vladivostok, Finland to Italy.
To help promote the event we now have a homepage linking the various events, and we've even started a Facebook profile (!), aside from the LinkedIn group which all participants are invited to join. (I hope all of the above links will work in this list email?)

Alexis: The Big Bale Building Basics workshop is going on (and there may be space for one more free participant), but lets communicate about it off this list and not bother the 650 other people with the details. -But yes, we made plans to use machines for the big bales as it turns out you're not superman after all(!)  ;o)

Cheers,
Max
