## Assessing Your Community's Needs

### Definition
- How would you define your community? Try to be open minded, but here are some examples of ways you could define your community:
- High School Hackers in and around Limassol, Cyprus

### Size
- Currently there's around 50 people in the community.
- We'd like to see around 100 people until July.
- We had a sharp increase when we founded the community last April, and after the last event, in December 2016.

- Public Transportation is available in the form of busses.
- Locations are easily accesible to anyone.
- It's free to use the space.
- The space can be used for hackathons, presentations and workshops alike.
- Up to 100 people can fit at a time.
- There's seating and tables avaialbe.
- There's food stores available close by.

### Communication
- We communicate over Facebook Messenger and the Facebook Events.
- There's not group just yet, we are working on that.

### Culture
- We aim to welcome anyone who is interested to joing and provide them a safe environment to take the first steps in coding.
- Whenever there's any issue, two or more community leaders sit down with everyone involved and work through it.
- There are no official policies just yet, however we work on a warning-one strike policy.
- We always sit down with at least one more organizer, so that we can always have more than one pair of eyes as well as more ideas and a second perspective.
