Announcing Tuesday night’s Meet and Greet
Normally we reserve the first day of the event to give people to setup, socialize, and prepare for the exciting week’s of events, but we’re adding a light weight events for those people who are looking for something to do.
First, is the Meet and Greet from 8:00-10:00 PM on Tuesday in the Dance Pavilion (at the bottom of the camp). Here you can meet volunteers, presenters, and other attendees and just hang out, talk, and get to know everyone. You can read more on our Workshops Page.
