Communicating via email about an event
For DrupalCamp CO 2011 we ran into a bit of a problem with how to send out an email to the local community about the camp. We had posted on groups.drupal.org in the relevant groups (there are about 6 groups in or near Colorado), tweeted, and talked about it in IRC, but we wanted to email people, people who may have not heard about the Camp on the existing mediums. We have email addresses from those who registered for the camp last year, and groups provides a group broadcast to its members, but if we used each of these methods separately we would be sure to send duplicates to some people.
Read moreDrupalCamp and Event Organizing Guide, Version10
This guide strives to help organizers of all types of Drupal-related events to effectively plan and organize their event. While most Drupal events are called "DrupalCamps", there are a number of other types of Drupal events that are also covered. The terms "DrupalCamp" and "Drupal event" are used interchangeably in this document.

What is a DrupalCamp?
The term "DrupalCamp" is used to describe various types of Drupal-related events usually organized by a local Drupal user group. Tradtionally, DrupalCamps have effectively been either un-planned sessions (in the spirit of unconferences like BarCamp), mini-conferences with pre-planned sessions, or some attempt to combine both formats.
There is also a growing number of more focused Drupal events that are also organized by local user groups, but that don't really fall into the "DrupalCamp" category (hackfests, clinics, etc...) While these aren't strictly "DrupalCamps", they share many of the same attributes, and the planning and execution of these events are similar to more traditional camps.
The absolute basic necessities for a DrupalCamp are sessions, a host facility, and people interested in learning about Drupal. In reality, that's all that is absolutely necessary. Most DrupalCamps have additional features including sponsors, birds-of-a-feather sessions, snacks, lunch, t-shirts, and a social/networking event among others.

Wifi solutions for camps
Hello folks,
Drupalcamp Colorado 2011 (June 11th and 12th) is in the fun position that we have a great low cost venue but no wifi in that venue. Gulp.
We're looking around for solutions and it seems like we will likely end up buying some routers/access points. So...we're curious if anyone else:
- Already has some industrial strength* routers that they would rent to us.
- Needs to also purchase/rent wifi gear for an event they are throwing and would be willing to help us pay for it
