Thread: Calling all Treeleaf Members!

  1. #1

    Calling all Treeleaf Members!

    I need help for Treeleaf's Tenth Anniversary!

    We are 93% completed for April 1, the first day of the Zazenathon, BUT we need 7 more 15-minute time slots filled by volunteers.

    CDT time
    15:00-15:30
    16:45-18:00


    However, April 2 needs a lot more help! I know it is a Saturday, so it is one of the worst days, but we need at least 13 more 15-minute time slots filled! (Shinzan is a back-up for two other slots that someone could take.) If anyone can help with these, please sign-up or PM me!

    Please also look forward to April 3, and sign up, if you can!

    Remember, you need nothing but to sit and post. Insight Timer or Google+ is optional! We just need you!

    Here is the link to the sign-up sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...DRg/edit#gid=0

    Here is the link for additional information: http://www.treeleaf.org/forums/showt...versary!/page3

    Please PM me if I can help answer questions. Any time slot that I have signed up for, I am willing to trade for any other, if you can sit during mine more easily!

    Hi Grace,

    I just filled a couple more slots for Saturday and Sunday

    I will not be at home during the weekend, so I don't think I can broadcast, but I'll surely be using Insight Timer

    For April 1, we still need 3 time slots of 15-minutes filled!

    CDT
    16:45-17:00
    17:00-17:15
    17:45-18:00

    Just a very few to go!

    Please, if anyone is wondering why I don't just fill in my name. . . I would normally with so few slots left!
    However, every Friday at this time, I play bridge with an 87 year old friend who I know would be very disappointed to miss her game. So, if someone could bail me out, I would be very grateful, and so would my friend, Jean!

    I ssigned up for 4 April (7:15-7:30 PM) and 9 April (6:45-7:00PM) I am on the West Coast (Blue Zone).
    Does that mean I actually sit on the 3rd and 8th.

    Thank you, Heisoku! Feel free to take any slots with my name, as I am filling in the odd slots that are difficult for people to fill! So, if any of them are convenient, insert your name, and I will be able to fill in or back-up elsewhere! Gassho, Grace.

    Thank you for signing-up, Theophan!

    No, you will sit on April 4 and April 9, because that is the space under PDT (West Coast time) that appears across from your name AND the space is WHITE, so you are on the same date! (CDT is the standard we are using.) If you would need to sit on another date, then the space would have been either blue if you sit your date one day before, or green if you sit the date one day after. Whew!

    It took me a while, too, and if it hadn't been for Nindo and Jika, I don't think I could have managed the schedule.

    On the spreadsheet right now, I see you down for your dates and times below and this is when you would sit.
    April 4 7:15 PM -7:30PM your PDT date and time
    April 9 6:45 - 7:00 PM your PDT date and time


    Thank your for celebrating! If you need to know when to sit, PM me and I will be happy to confirm your local date and time. And, if we unknowingly get it wrong, who's to care--we sat!

    Gassho, Grace.

    Hi Grace

    I have slotted some more times in; trying to fit them in around nursing shifts so they are a bit all over the place Will also sit some extra on the 8th so I can sit with Jundo during his mammoth session!

    Can I just add that as a newbie to Treeleaf, and having never actually physically sat with anyone, this is a fab idea and it makes me feel a real part of the Sangha

    Hi, we are all covered for Day 3 tomorrow, yea!, but there are still 6 time slots that have not been filled yet for Day 4.

    Each slot is 15 minutes.

    Please look at the sign-up spreadsheet and see if you could fill any of them. It's fun!
