On that note…DemoCamp Edmonton 4 is scheduled to take place on October 29th at 6:30 at the U of A ETLC room E1-017.  It will be great to have the community together again and see some more great things that are going on.

As a part of the community building process, we’re looking for people to help spread the word. We’d like to challenge everyone to tell a few people about Democamp and physically bring at least one new person to the event.

Additionally we’re looking for volunteers to help us target different groups of people in a more organized fashion. If you want to help us spread the word to schools, media, demoers or service providers, let us know. We really want to grow a focused team of people to make democamp Edmonton the best it can be.

We’ll see you out on the 29th…

DemoCamp Edmonton 3 is ready to go.  After around 100 people came out exchanged ideas at our recent BarCamp we are looking forward to having the community together again at our third DemoCamp.

DemoCamp Edmonton 3 is slated to take place on September 17 at 6:30PM in the Engineering Teaching and Learning Complex (ETLC), room E1 017, at the University of Alberta.  You can find a map of where the building is located on campus here.   Parking is located nearby in the Windsor Parking Lot on 116 St and 92 Ave.

We just want to say a quick thank-you to everyone that showed up last night for Edmonton’s very first DemoCamp.  Almost 70 people attended, well beyond our initial estimates of 50 or less.  As well, many people came out afterwards for drinks at The Windsor. One of the main goals of DemoCamp is to build connections in the Edmonton community, and we’re sure many new connections were made last night.

We’d also like to thank all the speakers that came out.  You all did a great job, and we look forward to seeing you again!  Here they are again in the order they presented:

There’s already a great recap of the nights events, as well as content on Flickr and Twitter.

Over the next few weeks we’re going to be collecting feedback and going over this DemoCamp to see what we can do better next time.  If you want to keep up on what’s going on we encourage you to join our mailing list, follow our RSS feed, or join the BarCampEdmonton Facebook group.
