360Flex Camp New Jersey wrap up

Meant to write this up sooner, but been a busy week at work.

New Jersey was our, first Flex Camp, so it had a few lessons learned to go with it.

1. Don’t red eye it the morning of the event. Tom’s flight was an hour late, then we had to get from JFK to Montclair State, in Jersey!

Driving in New York is definitely an experience, :)

Also, don’t plan FlexCamps around major financial meltdowns, that’s bad for attendance.

We had a great turn out, not huge, but given the price and the financial meltdown, I think the turn out was awesome. It was a great group; speakers and attendees.

The topics were all stellar!

The after camp party, well beers and appetizers, was great. It’s always nice to hang with the folks who give up their time to hang with us. Love it.

If you’re interested in hosting a Flex Camp, but don’t want or don’t know how to do some of the legwork let us know.

360Flex Camp New Jersey Arrived at JFK, sitting

The joys of having a business partner in another state/time zone; we don’t fly together, and rarely do we ever land at the same time when we fly places.

Case in point, today. We both red-eyed it to New York (JFK) for day two of 360|Flex Camp NJ. I arrived at 5am. Tom doesn’t arrive until almost 8. Nothing sucks more than killing time at an airport. Especially, i’ve found, doing it at JFK. I left the secure zone (first mistake) since I wasn’t sure which gate or terminal he’d be arriving at. Outside the secure zone, unlike DIA, SFO, or ATL. There’s not much going on, at least not at the terminal I’m at.

Power outlets seem to be as rare as unicorns, so by the time we arrive at 360|Flex Camp, I’ll be juiceless, LOL.

Ah well, two Dunkin Donuts dounts and a coffee, and I’m slightly coherent and mostly conscious.

360|Flex Camp New Jersey THIS WEEK

w00t!

Tom and I will be in Jersey this weekend for 360|Flex Camp New Jersey. Jason from NJFlex, is working with us (or us with him) to put together what should be a really kick ass 2 day Flex Camp. Friday is a full day of training, by Flex Super stars, Farata Systems! Day two (Saturday) is a full kick ass day of Flex content, ranging from customer components, to Drupal integration, to Flex builder performance! It’s gonna rock!

It wouldn’t be a Flex Camp without SWAG, so we should have some pretty cool stuff for everyone, plus a fun after event get together for everyone to hang out and relax and chat!

Make sure you register! Space is limited and it’s gonna be a great event!

See you in Jersey!
