October 1, 2010, was the second BookCamp Vancouver and it was a great success! Thank you to Crissy Campbell, our behind-the-scenes project manager extraordinaire, and the members of the organizing committee: John Maxwell, Sean Cranbury and Cynara Geissler. A big thanks to Jo-Anne Ray for her knowledge of all things SFU and her ability to wrangle rooms, caterers, AV equipment and other necessities.
A huge, huge, huge thank you to the session moderators who took time out of their busy days to share their knowledge with us and conversation skills!
BookCamp’s free admission is made possible by the generous support of BookNet Canada, who sponsored our lunch and breaks, and SFU Canadian Centre for Studies in Publishing for providing us the location.
Thank you to the 250 participants who shared, collaborated and exchanged knowledge throughout the day. I was thrilled by the buzz and pleased by the ongoing conversations.
Many thanks also to the fine folks at Steamworks who accommodated our after party and opened up the additional bar area for us.
See how sad we were before getting pumpkin beer!
