Karen et al…
The fourth agreement regarding air time and allowing each participant to speak once before another speaks a second time…seems awkward to enforce unless the moderator assumes that role and I’ve not seen that happen. Perhaps rewording this one to something like, “We share ‘air time” to the best of our ability so that each person has the opportunity to contribute to the group discussion if he/she desires.”
As for a celebration, that would be lovely. With holidays encroaching, this might be difficult to achieve without considerable notice. But let’s try! Kathryn (Bell)
