WordCamp Sacramento 2019 – Recap
WordCamp Sacramento 2019 was an awesome camp! This was the fourth camp I attended and the very first one I attended in Sacramento.
It was all that I expected it to be and much more.
WordCamp Sacramento 2019!
The camp was held at the Falls Event Center in Roseville, CA on September 21 and 22.
I flew into Sacramento on Friday so that I could check in my hotel and head over the kick-off dinner. Upon getting off the plane, I was greeted by some amazing Sacramento artwork seemingly floating in mid-air.
After making my way through the airport, I took an Uber and headed over to the hotel.
After checking in, I started getting excited for WordCamp Sacramento 2019. I was eager to attend the camp and meet new people while saying hello to friendly faces.
But before the camp, it was time to start getting ready for dinner.
I know…the shirt doesn’t match the camp. But, I didn’t have one for Sacramento yet. Besides, it’s comfortable.
As I was leaving the hotel, I ran into Kathy Zant from Wordfence. I met Kathy back when I attended WordCamp Kansas City accurate mobile phone number list with Michael Brockbank from our team. We spent two days across from each other as our tables were pretty close at that camp.
Speaker Sponsor Dinner
The dinner was held at Siinos Restaurant, a very busy Italian dinner buffet in Lincoln, California. It was a beautiful location with a nice “homey” feel.
The dinner was packed! We were in a covered snbp and snmptn, what are the differences? outdoor patio, and there was a yummy Italian buffet just for us. And I had the opportunity to say, “hi” to some people that I knew from before the event while meeting a lot of cool new people.
I have to say that people at WordCamps are all very nice and fun to talk to. But, this is true of every camp.
I spent some time catching up with Dwayne McDaniel and met Jonathan Keller from West County Media. He looked so familiar, and I felt like we had met before. It’s very possible.
I also chatted with some of the bzb directory wonderful organizers who make this all happen, including Jose Castaneda, Jennifer Bourn, and Jacob Henderson. We had a nice conversation, and I can’t wait to meet up with them again.
After a nice dinner and great conversations, I went back to the hotel since we were going to have an early start the next day.
Saturday Morning at WordCamp Sacramento 2019
On Saturday morning, I loaded all my boxes of swag and the displays on the bell cart and started pushing it to the venue which was literally across from the hotel. Jose Castaneda saw me with the cart, so he came over and helped get everything inside.
Thank you, Jose.
I started setting up the table alongside several other sponsors getting ready for the event. I wanted to make sure our space was ready for the influx of people in attendance at the WordCamp.
Once I was done, I went to say, “hi” and thanked some of the volunteers. We know that along with the organizers, camps won’t happen without them.
