<p><strong>Problem/Motivation</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>We need a booth at Drupal Europe, which will be staffed by volunteers who will encourage exhibit hall visitors to attend the Friday contrib time, and to become a mentor if they already have experience contributing to core.</li>
<li><del>Need to organize mentor leads.</del> For more information visit the<a href="https://www.drupal.org/core-mentoring/mentored-sprint-leads#booth"> Core Mentored Sprint Lead Roles</a> page.</li>
<li>Need to choose recipients for mentor tickets</li>
<li>Goal- get many participants set up with tools *before* the friday contrib time - Brian/@realityloop & Quicksprint?</li>

<p><strong>Remaining tasks</strong></p>

<li>Lessons learnt from previous Cons speeches: <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link project-issue-status-info project-issue-status-17"><a href="https://www.drupal.org/project/mentoring/issues/2476909" title="Status: Closed (outdated)">#2476909: Propose relevant sessions</a></span> Move it to the documentations.</li>
<li>Let's reuse the blog post for sprints: <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link project-issue-status-info project-issue-status-17"><a href="https://www.drupal.org/project/mentoring/issues/2341025" title="Status: Closed (outdated)">#2341025: Blog about getting ready for DrupalCon sprints</a></span>.

<li><del>Mentor identification! @ekl1773 is looking into sponsorship for custom printed ribbons (<a href="https://www.drupal.org/project/mentoring/issues/2390841">pdf of mentoring druplicon here</a>) and will probably also design and coordinate ordering <a href="https://www.flyeralarm.com/de/content/index/open/id/24055/geschenkbaender.html">from here</a></del>Sent to Gábor and to printer</li>
<li><del>irc</del>/slack factoids in the mentoring channel: See drupaleu? drupaleurope? darmstadt?</li>
<li>Take a closer look through the [META] Drupalcon related issue for other thoughts, and see meeting transcripts as soon as they're posted</li>
<li>Sprint tools update: update to 8.7.x (pending), fix for Docker Toolbox/Windows Home, fix using https:// instead of git:// URL in case that URL is blocked, more testing needed for latest builds. @rfay mentioned drud having some time to help review quicksprint in the upcoming weeks. @mradcliffe is on this</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Items needed for booth etc</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>@zelfje should have a manifest list from @mradcliffe of items in the mentoring box (starred below). Suggested amounts of stickers etc from @greggmarshall = 25% of attendance. VERIFY the things are all present at beginning of the week!</li>
<li>*Sprint cards</li>
<li>*Sprint stickers</li>
<li>*Name stickers (“Hi my name is…”, enough for 25% total sprint attendance)</li>
<li>Flipchart easels will be provided by the venue for all furnished areas</li>
<li>Banner and banner stand?</li>
<li>Print out of the booth instructions for mentors who sit at the booth</li>
<li>Optional: A monitor, with a memory stick with "slides". This might be re-used on Friday for small workshop presentations after the first workshop is done.</li>
<li>First timers workshop will have seating/electric for ~100 + a projector</li>
