WHAT. A. DAY!!! Thank you all for coming to the Virtual Summit today - this fledgling event really exceeded our expectations! So many of you kept showing up session after session, engaged thoughtfully, asked stellar questions — thank you. And extra thank yous to @Megan Roberts and @Anne Baker for generously sharing their time and expertise with us. We all learned so much from you! Replays will be available soon, and we'll be sending you a proper feedback form too, but in the meantime, would love to know your biggest takeaway from the day. Did something land in an unexpected way? Did you have a big aha? Tell us in the comments.

Here's to stellar July paddling and racing to you all!

Every community has its own level names and perks. I'm currently at Wash Rider ... and I'm the only one here 🤣. Can't ride wash if nobody is there to make it for me! Q. Why work on leveling up, isn't it just stupid nonsense? A. Nope. Well, maybe a little. But if you poke around other communities, including my other one, then you'll see that all sorts of things unlock as you level up. It could be a free course or training, it could be a killer resource or gift. As @Joann Fegley and I figure out what prizes to add to our levels, YOU can tell us what would be a good prize AND work on leveling up at the same time! How to level up: 1. LIKE this post (I wanna level up too, haha!) 2. Comment below: either ask a question you really want an answer to, make a recommendation for a Level perk, or give us an insight that you think will help others. 3. Go LIKE and comment on AT LEAST 3 other comments. Each time you LIKE a post or comment, you'll help that person level up. And when you help someone else, they'll help you. And while you're at it, answer this poll, so that we make the prizes something you actually want, not just what we THINK you want. What would make a good leveling up perk?

Liisa, thank you for organizing the summit. Unfortunately I was only able to log in to a few sessions and experienced many interruptions since I was on the road headed south with 2 grandsons. I already have some new ideas to implement and am looking forward to some quiet time to revisit the ones I missed.

We're feverishly putting the finishing touches on all the sessions and looking forward to having a great day with everyone!
