Dear John You could do as you plan, or, if there is one passionate theme, just run with the whole group, and a 'normal' OS, as the real and untrammelled experience is absolutely what people really need. You would need the other facilitators as 'sheepdogs' anyway, to help signpost people, as the time is short. People make of it what they want to,

We expected about 50 to be there and had a pretty good handle on what to do! Suddenly we have been told that 247 people have elected fro the session! Anyone got any brilliant ideas apart from ours which is to do the set up as one group and then split into 3 separate demos each with a facilitator. Sub-groups of 70+ will do one round of OS and report on 2 key points from each discussion group. These will be collated into the 'top 10' from the sub group. Whole group will reassemble and three reports of top ten points given before wrap up.
