In the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St.Paul, we are proud of our Drupal camp and this past weekend we hosted the ninth annual. This established and well-attended event attracts the majority of local Drupalistas, some out-of-towners, and the odd Drupal luminary or two.

A Joint Effort

For many, it is the most anticipated Drupal event of the year, and like any Drupal camp it is a joint effort of dedicated individuals coming together to deliver something useful for the wider community. 

If you have ever helped organize such an event you’ll know that it takes a great deal of time, coordination and old-fashioned hard graft to make it happen. Kudos to everyone who organized, volunteered, attended, sponsored, shared knowledge, BOFed, socialized, networked or participated in any way. Thank you all!

There are many components of a successful camp, but having good sessions is essential. Nearly 40 sessions were offered this year with true diversity of topics and delivery styles; ranging from introductory talks to more technical, and from entertaining and fun to inspiring and thought-provoking.

At Electric Citizen we were very pleased to have four sessions approved, and these were recorded for anyone to watch.
