July Decelerator at Rancho San Gregorio: Hosted by Founders Guild
Join us for another Decelerator at Rancho San Gregorio, a quick one hour drive from SF or the South Bay, and near the cooling ocean for a break from the hot summer.
The theme of this Decelerator aligns with the first two goals of Founders Guild: Mental and Physical health. In additional to our ritual hike through the redwoods and Eva's yoga classes, we are preparing the barn for line-dancing classes, pottery making, and painting.
We are also shooting for a proper ranch style BBQ in the evening - bring your favorite meats and enjoy your meal around the campfire!
We expect this event to be very much over-subscribed, so we are encouraging everyone to put their best foot forward in the registration questions. Huge bonus to those who fill out the https://thirdplaces.ai dossier as our OpenClaw will be working overtime to select a group with high synergy!
IMPORTANT REMINDERS
Please pack a picnic lunch for yourself
If you are joining us for dinner it's potluck, so bring a main dish or dessert
Join us:
During the day Saturday

Rancho San Gregorio is a unique blend of working ranch (since 1839!) with a touch of Silicon Valley: we are creating low cost agricultural robots to help small farms grow healthy food sustainably.
On July 11th we are again opening our doors for a weekend of play:
Enjoy live music around a campfire.
Camp under the stars.
Join us for our Sunday morning run on the beach.
Celebrate the end of a full day watching a sunset from our hilltop. 🍷
Learn Yoga and line-dancing.
Create your own pottery.
Mini-cow snuggles.
Dance in the redwoods.
This is a free event and space is limited so let us know why you would be a great fit. We can’t wait to meet you :)
