Florida DrupalCamp 2010 Sponsorships, Finances, and General Update

Posted by ultimike on December 21, 2009 at 5:05pm

I just wanted to give everyone a quick update on Florida DrupalCamp sponsorships and finances.

We just received 2 additional sponsorship pledges totaling $750. Thanks to Ryan for providing the contact information from his recent trip to DrupalCamp Chicago.

To date, we have $4,350 in sponsorship pledges and have received $2,798.43 in payments (this number includes the very first registrations for the camp).

Registration for the camp is now open via the official site: http://2010.fldrupalcamp.org/ - please spread the word! We're charging a token fee of $5 (mainly so we have an accurate number of attendees for planning purposes). We'll waive the fee for students and non-profit employees. To request free admission, send us a note here: http://2010.fldrupalcamp.org/contact-us

We're also looking for a suitable non-profit organization to build a site for on Day 2 of the camp, "Coding for a Cause". More information can be found here: http://2010.fldrupalcamp.org/coding-cause-application

Finally, and most importantly, we're still looking for additional volunteers to pull off a fantastic event. We're looking for people to help plan and deliver food/drinks/supplies the day of the event as well as help us with registration and "Coding for a Cause". Let us know if you can help out!

Thanks,
-mike

Just noticed that the layout breaks when browser width hits about 1890px. I think if u put a width value on the .container class it will fix that.

Also, I can help out too. Maybe you can get a task list going so people can see exactly what needs to be done.

Chairs/tables/etc costs updated on wiki

Posted by caelon on January 7, 2010 at 3:45am

I've updated the cost estimates from Kirby on the wiki page. We need to put a deposit down on the equipment soon to make sure we will have it. Let me know what I should do.

Don,

Before we put a deposit down, we probably need to be comfortable with the number of people we expect to attend.

What does everybody else think?

registration sprint

Posted by ultimike on January 7, 2010 at 7:07pm

Erik and I were just talking about DrupalCamp registrations and I suggested we do a "registration sprint" early next week to get as many people registered as possible.

This would need be a combined effort of as many people as possible to blog/tweet/post about it and blanket the Drupal community with as much information about Florida DrupalCamp as possible.

The reason I think we need to do this is that we're getting close to the time where we need to start reserving/ordering food, t-shirts, chairs, etc...

What does everyone think?
