Total Onsite New Participants: 426

New Participant Overview Tutorial: 71

Quick Connections: 63 New Participants with 21 Mentors

Guides: Approximately 10 pairs

New Participant Dinner: 40

New Participant Social Hour: Approximately 60 people

Summary of activities:
The New Participant Dinner, Quick Connections and the Social hour continue to be the most popular events for New Participants.  During the New Participant Overview tutorial,  we practiced how to scan the QR code for meeting attendance and we could see a jump in the Meetecho number which is the outcome we were looking for.   We continue to look for ideas to make participation better for remote attendees and also what can be done between meetings for encouraging new participation.
