by lunaweb on November 11, 2011

We’re WAY excited to see everybody tomorrow.  Few quick notes:

  • We are at the STCC Macon campus (off Sycamore View Rd)…not the Union Ave campus.
  • BarCamp goes 8:30am to 4:30pm Want to mingle around at 8′ish, c’mon down.
  • We’ll have coffee, beverages and breakfast snacks like donuts & fruit.  Lunch will be some off the awesome BBQ from The Rendevous!
  • Bring your business cards. Networking is highly encouraged.
  • Wear comfy casual clothing (or be as decked-out as you’d like).
  • Charge your gadgets and bring a camera (or wipe that phone lens off).
  • Free WiFi via STCC will be available.
  • Sleep well, we want you at your awesomest!
  • Give some shout-outs to our sponsors – please! We count on them for so much :-) and want them back.
Presenters, please bring your sessions on a USB drive or email it to dave[at]lunaweb(d o t)com (and he’ll save to USB for you). We do request that you post your slide decks on a slideshare.net within a few days.  If you don’t have an account (we encourage you to get one), we can post for you. If you hadn’t yet provided a description to go along with your title, please email it to info[at]barcampmemphis(d o t)org.  Thanks for bringing your awesome content!
Volunteers, we could use you as early as 7:30am when we start setting up, and then all throughout the day.  Thanks for helping out!
