What to call day 2 of DrupalCamp Florida?

ultimike's picture

At Saturday's most-excellent central Florida Drupal meetup, we had a discussion about what we should call day 2 of DrupalCamp. As you may or may not know, this year, we're adding a second day to DrupalCamp Florida where we're going to be building a full site for a local non-profit organization. We're going to pre-select an organization prior to the event and do some initial legwork, but 100% of the development will be done on day 2 of the camp.

This will be a great opportunity for the Drupal community in Florida for a number of things:

  1. it will be a chance to do something good for the community and help out a worthy organization

  2. it will give novice Drupal developers, designers, and themers a chance to work with seasoned developers, designers, and themers in the building of a Drupal site.

  3. it will allow us to get the word out a bit more about the Drupal community in Florida

With all that in mind, we need to come up with a catchy name for Day 2 of the camp that we can use to spread the word. Some ideas include:

  • Charity Site Sprint
  • Drupal Charity Site Sprint
  • Drupal Extreme Site Makeover
  • Drupal Development Dash
  • Drupal Development Dash for a Cause
  • Code Sprint for Cause

Let's get a discussion going today and try to settle on a name. We have the opportunity to reach a large number of people through a local email campaign in the next day or two (thanks Steve!) and it would be great if we had a name all picked out!

If you've got another idea for a name, please leave it in the comments below!

Thanks,

I'd stay away from 'charity'

I'm trying to come up with some ideas, but I think I'd stay way from the using the term charity. It has a lot of pejorative connotations for many people. I work for a non-profit myself and it's not a term I see used by us or any other non-profits. I do think Cause is better or something about being for 'Good' or something that involves the idea of building community.

I think it is a superb idea on a number of levels. As someone who is new to Drupal, I really look forward to watching something real get built. And that it would help out the community at the same time is just awesome.

I'll post again with a list of name ideas after I have time to toss it around.


Drupal Aid; Drupal Aidacon; Drupal Community Drive; Drupal Heros
