WhereCamp Portland October 17th-19th

[Dawn Foster]

The first ever WhereCampPDX event is coming up in just 2 weeks on
October 17th-19th where local geo-geeks of all stripes will be
gathering for a weekend of location based fun. WhereCamp is an event
that started in the Bay Area in 2007 to continue conversations from
the Where 2.0 conference. Legion of Tech is organizing a Portland
version to show off the amazing, fun geographic technology activity we
have. This is not just an event for specialists: we would like anyone
who is interested in the intersection of people, place, and technology
to participate.

WhereCampPDX needs your help!

* Attending. If you plan to attend, please RSVP on Upcoming so we
can plan accordingly.
* Sponsoring. We still need a few more sponsors to help cover the
costs of the event.
* Marketing. Blog, Tweet, and let your friends know about the
event.
