summary
A short welcome that stakes a concrete claim: the strongest value comes from the hallway track where real relationships form, not just sessions; a practical pro tip labeled the Pac-Man rule — always leave an opening in a circle so newcomers can join — and a data point about 20 months of pandemic-era isolation that made those in-person connections essential. It notes many first-time attendees and urges active inclusion.
