There are many ways to participate in a BarCamp!
As a company, you can sponsor a meal or provide logistical support by providing campers with products or services. Please contact Danny Newman dnewman-SPAM@gmail.com or Joe Pezzillo regarding corporate sponsorship.
As an individual, you can simply show up and contribute to the discussions, or you can go that extra mile and help by volunteering to set up, clean up, or coordinate events. Please sign up on the BarCampDenverVolunteers page if you would like to help out.
Anyone planning to participate in BarCampDenver in any capacity should sign up on the BarCampDenverAttendees page.
My folding chair hookup fell thru. Does anyone have access to a bunch of folding chairs?
8/26 01:05 chair update: I've got 20 chairs of various kinds (almost all my stackable and folding house concert chairs) packed in the station wagon for Saturday. -- Doug G.
These kind people contributed in some way or another to help BarCampDenver happen.
