Perhaps the desk staff can nudge a few, reminding people of the early bird registration?

They are all chances to engage in learning and teaching and be around people to share stories with. Get back to a closer normal during these extra-ordinary times.

It could be a time to help with unpacking at the LD-Sig desk in the morning, just stop by and hang out for awhile, a space to talk about LD-Sigs long term commitment to Tohoku area for learners in need, finding out more about our new events, or just help with packing up at the end of the day.
