Dear Village Mayors,, WHY2025 is officially over. Most of us are still in recovery mode (coffee, sleep, repeat…), but before the memories fade into logfiles we want to send you a huge *thank you*. This camp couldn’t have happened without you. Each of you ran with your idea, built your sandbox of controlled chaos, and together we forged a decentralized mesh of villages that felt like home. We’ve seen happy faces, late-night hacks, new friendships, old friends rebooting connections, and plenty of people just being their true selves. That’s what makes our community magic. On behalf of *Team Villages*: thank you for helping us solve the giant “villages puzzle”. Your info, flexibility, and good vibes made our job possible (even when the road was bumpy). We should all be proud of what we pulled off together! 💡 Feedback, Ideas & Compliments Got thoughts about what went great or what we can improve?

Until then, stay curious, stay kind, and keep the campfire spirit alive (be awesome!). ♥ Team Villages
