Best practices

 

  • Try to focus on local sponsors -- especially those who can actually attend the BarCamp and participate in some way. (Source)
  • Limit cash contributions (used to be $250, was $300 at BarCampBlock).
    • This is great because it means that no one "owns" BarCamp and we get to keep the great community vibe. (Source)
  • Request that our sponsors order food and other food stuff directly, minimizing the organizer's duties and responsibilities as well as the amount of money they touch. (Source)

Variations
