Five Reasons Why EventCamp 2010 Should Be A Must On Your To-Do List

1.   It’s an opportunity to be a part of the first-ever EventCamp! Your participation automatically qualifies you a trailblazer in the events industry. I think being a trailblazer sounds pretty cool and it’s something I look forward to adding to my bag of tricks.

2.   I’m going to go ahead and put it out there that I think EventCamp may end up having the most #eventprofs gathered in one room to date. We are from all over the US, even the world, and EventCamp is a no-brainer opportunity to take these relationships a step further.

3.   We all know the value of following the tweetstream when you cannot attend an event. Recently, there was #pcma10, #expoexpo, and one that really awakened me to the power of social media and events, #buzz09. While it’s great to be able to get snippets of the event via Twitter, it’s just a supplement to the main event. Furthermore, wouldn’t it be great to be one of the contributors?

4.   It’s being organized by some pretty awesome people (@MizCity, @JessicaLevin, @JeffHurt, @MichaelMcCurry and @mmcallen) I mean come on. These people don’t just talk a big game – they are the major #eventprofs players.

5.   Without a doubt, EventCamp 2010 will be a major milestone in the #eventprofs story. If there was a book about #eventprofs – EventCamp 2010 would be a whole chapter.
