July 15th -- Update, We have a Venue

[Steven Chau]

Hey Everybody,

At the end of last week, We secured a venue for BarCamp. Both David,
Shannon and myself had conversation with Shaul and Mike about using
Javaport as the venue for this great community event. The BarCamp last
year jump started the local community scene with its great technology
and collaborative vibe, which is why it is so great to have the event
at Javaport. Being in the heart of Kansas City's most vibrant
creative area, the vibe will surely be electric! Take a look at the
pictures at the link below.

In addition to that wonderful announcement, John B. (@jur1st) from
CCCKC volunteered to help out with the networking and projector needs;
which brings up an important resource question. For each of the break
sessions, it would be great to have a projector available to project
slides on a screen. If you have a project and/or screen available that
you would not mind lending out for a day, please send an email to me
directly.

Next, regarding the date, if no one is opposed, I am suggesting we
have BarCamp on Sept 26th starting at 9:00 AM, with a Friday Social
Meetup. Last year, Pete arranged a meetup at Naras, so that is always
a possibility. Since the weather is likely to be warm, lets fire up
some grills in the parking lot and have ourselves a little gathering.
Possibility setup a laser graffiti, a few games of Seek and Spell, and
shenanigans.

And that is a wrap. -- Steven
