The sequence
PEOPLE FIRST. A SHARED VISION NEXT.
01
Form the Founding Council
We hope the STAY CURIOUS docuseries will help bring together the Founding Council. Some people involved in the project have already been invited. There are no formal council members yet.
02
Create the vision together
Agree on a shared purpose, priorities and how the council will make decisions.
03
Plan initial funds
Develop an initial funding plan to get the initiative started. There is no fixed fundraising target or separate docuseries completion goal.
04
Decide the structure
Consider whether to establish our own nonprofit. No decision has been made; the council will explore the options together.
05
Let the work grow from there
Let the shared vision guide creative projects, the Reservoir and future gatherings rather than prescribing a finished outcome.
A council, not a board
THE FUTURE IS A SHARED QUESTION.
Stephen Sedmak hired Craig Rose to begin the Hollow Bone Initiative, with initial funding through Shope Creek Wilderness. We hope the STAY CURIOUS docuseries will help find the people who will form its Founding Council and shape the vision together. Some people involved in the project have already been invited. There are no formal council members yet.
Dale Sanders, David Dame, Dave Duffin, Kenny McCormick IV, Patricc Reed, Jamie Tanzer and Robert Davis have expressed interest. Dean and Stacy McDaniel are also invited. Expressions of interest are not confirmed commitments or legal board appointments.
Hollow Bone has not established its own nonprofit. Whether to do so remains an open decision for the forming council.
Initial support
START THE INITIATIVE. SHAPE WHAT FOLLOWS.
The council will develop initial funding priorities and an appropriate way to receive support. No fixed amount or deadline is being presented.
To discuss initial support, connect with the initiative. No tax-deductibility is being promised.
