Running Firefly Sanctuary to its full potential is a ton of work. However, with enough forethought, it could be spread out over a large group of volunteers and several months, instead of the usual situation where most of the work falls to one or two people in the last month before Firefly. | '''Problem statement''' | ||
Running Firefly Sanctuary to its full potential is a ton of work. However, with enough forethought, it could be spread out over a large group of volunteers and several months, instead of the usual situation where most of the work falls to one or two people in the last month before Firefly. However, it doesn't do any good just to enlist a lot of people to help, if there aren't clearly delineated responsibilities: You end up with a bad situation where people are frustrated and not working because they're always waiting to be told what to do, or they're always stepping on the toes of someone else with an overlapping role. | |||
'''Proposal''' | |||
One vision is to have one or several people signed up for each of the roles articulated below, and also have a backup person for each role, since inevitably ''someone'' always ends up being too busy, having a life crisis, or burning out. If all of the people in these roles pick a weekly meeting time starting in April, it would set aside a certain amount of time each week to get work done, it would eliminate the hassle of trying to work with everyone's schedules ad-hoc for in-person meetings, and it would create a social element that is appealing to many people. | One vision is to have one or several people signed up for each of the roles articulated below, and also have a backup person for each role, since inevitably ''someone'' always ends up being too busy, having a life crisis, or burning out.
