Nick Whitmoyer, one of my fellow Refresh DC organizers, gives this great rundown of what it takes to run a community event.

1. Set realistic time limits
2. Find the right crew
3. Get the most out of it
4. Stay focused
5. Keep it simple
6. Ask for help
7. Most importantly, follow up

This is great advice. Timely, too! Next week, we celebrate Refresh DC’s tenth anniversary.
