This is a set-up list for Day Riva, and is based off of Riva Setuplist.

This is a preparation for a Riva focused on a collaborative Workspace and Living (8 months out of the year).

Currently, the situation is primitive, and the plan is to upgrade. A small `campground´ for aprox 24 people, suitable for seminars. The site has hosted an event with over 100 people.

Several year-round cabins will be built. All structures will have 96 sqft off floor space, and will serve as a form of micro-housing (see http://www.motherearthnews.com/Green-Home-Building/1995-04-01/The-World-of-the-Microhouse.aspx)
