Event Details

Freelance Camp Santa Cruz 2009 is the fifth organized BarCamp for freelancers and independent contractors. We are proud to host this in beautiful, innovative Santa Cruz, CA.  You ask: What is a BarCamp? BarCamp is an international network of user generated conferences — open, participatory workshop-events, whose content is provided by participants.  The day consists of sessions proposed by attendees and the schedule is created on site the morning of the event. BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn from each other in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos and interaction from participants.


WHAT TO EXPECT AT FREELANCE CAMP:

The day will start at 8am with an hour of socializing over coffee and pastries.  We will be handing out stainless steel Klean Kanteens to the first 200 registrants at the sign up. We have 200 Kanteens and 300 sign ups slots so come early!  It is really important you arrive by 9am so you can participate in creating the day’s agenda.  At 9am sharp we will give directions on how to propose a topic and then we will create a schedule. We will be harvesting the minds and expertise of all the people in the room to come up with topics pertinent to freelancers. If you’d like to lead a session you’re going to want to speak up with your topic idea at 9am, when the schedule is being created.

 

WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO BRING:

  • Your own coffee mug
  • A head full of topic ideas
  • Your laptop (free wi-fi provided.) If you are not so inclined to arrive with electronic note-taking items a simple notebook and pen will do.
  • Lots of business cards.  This is a great networking opportunity. You can get a quick turnaround from Zazzle.com if you are in need of cards.
