In Campfires in Cyberspace by David D Thornburg* he talks about conferences being like primitive societies with Campfires, Caves, Watering Holes and Life itself as opportunities for creative thought and learning. We used his model to develop our approach to our National Conference – “Creative Solutions” March 19 2010, Ricoh Centre Coventry. Our six themes will be experienced through Campfires, Caves, Watering Holes and Life!

The campfire…
For thousands of years, storytelling was a mechanism for teaching. Through storytelling, the wisdom of elders was passed to the next generation. Keynote speakers, workshop leaders are often storytellers with some better than others!

The watering hole…
The watering hole is a place where we learn from our peers. The learning at the watering hole is less formal. It ‘s peer teaching, a sharing of gossip, news, dreams and discoveries that drive us forward. Each participant at the watering hole is both learner and teacher at the same time.

The cave…
The cave is where we came in contact with ourselves. Learners have needed, on occasion, to isolate themselves from others in order to gain special insights. Time to reflect and absorb and test against our own values and beliefs.

Life...
Whether our insights are established through campfires, watering holes, caves, or (more likely) a combination of the three, we don't really know what we know until we have tried to apply it.
