SUMMIT EXPERIENCE TRACKS
Do you want to help make the experience at the summit the best yet? Then you are in the right place!
We've already got teams diligently working away on logistics, creative and content. Here is another opportunity to get involved. Below are four different tracks that will all help to shape the overall experience at the summit. There are many jobs, tasks and ways to help with each of these tracks.
Note: as we continue to build out what these events look like, the track leads will be filling out specific tasks/roles. Stay tuned for more updates via the summit blog. If your name is added below, the track lead will be reaching out to you shortly.
Social Events
Lead: TBD, ping Amie Tyrrel in interim
Tell me more:
The tasks that live in this track are centered around many of the fun social events that will happen at each site. We are working to develop several activities that participants will be able to sign up to attend in advance. The activities will range from morning health & wellness (could it be Yoga? Zumba? Hikes? A hockey game?) to fun activities specific to that region: chocolate making in Brussels, CN tower tour in Toronto, or maybe Great America in Santa Clara.
How can I help:
If you are interested in helping with all things Social, we are currently looking for local site leads for each of our summit sites as well as a group of individuals to help during the summit.

Tasks that live in this track will be around sharing with Mozillians. In this track we'll build out our World Faire (a chance to showcase your country/community for other Mozillians), a Science Faire (a chance to demo what/how you do what you do) and it wouldn't be Mozilla if we didn't leave space to flex our creativity. Art show anyone?
