Pagoda

Purpose

To ensure the Pagoda remains a clean, organized, and welcoming space for all activities. This protocol outlines responsibilities for daily maintenance, proper storage, and feedback procedures to sustain the Pagoda as a shared resource.

Daily Maintenance Protocol

Before Morning Circle

1. Prepare the Space:

• Ensure the floor and table are clean.

• Arrange chairs or seating if needed for the morning circle.

• Place water and plastic glasses on the table for participants.

After Morning Circle

2. Clean-Up:

• Collect and clean all used glasses and other items.

• Wipe down the table and ensure the space looks tidy.

3. Feedback to the System:

• Leave a note or update in the community feedback system about the state of the space and any supplies needed (e.g., replacement glasses or water).

After Daily Sessions

1. Tidy the Space:

• Sweep the floor to remove dirt or debris.

• Ensure tables and any used surfaces are wiped down.

2. Store Equipment:

• Return the monitor and any other session-related equipment to its designated storage area.

• Organize any papers, markers, or materials from the session in their proper places.

Windy Conditions

1. Secure Items:

• Tie down hammocks to prevent them from flapping or blowing away.

• Check that all papers, materials, or lightweight items are safely stored to avoid scattering in the garden.

• Close or secure any open containers or storage units that might be affected by the wind.

Exercise Area Guidelines

1. Using Exercise Equipment:

• Use the workout bar and other sports items responsibly and ensure they are returned to their designated storage areas after use.

• Wipe down equipment after use if needed, especially during warm weather or after intensive workouts.

Weekly Deep Clean

• Schedule a deeper cleaning session once a week, where:

• All equipment and furniture are thoroughly cleaned.

• The floor is mopped, and any cobwebs or accumulated dirt are removed.

• Supplies like water bottles and glasses are restocked or replaced as necessary.

Community Involvement

1. Rotation System:

• Assign weekly responsibilities for maintaining the Pagoda to different community members or teams to distribute the workload.

2. Feedback and Improvement:

• Hold brief check-ins during the morning circle to gather feedback on the Pagoda’s state and address any recurring issues.

Why This Matters

By keeping the Pagoda clean and organized, we:

• Respect the shared nature of the space.

• Ensure a positive and harmonious environment for all activities.

• Prolong the life of the materials and equipment used.

Let’s work together to maintain the Pagoda as a beautiful and functional space for everyone!.
