FAQ

What is a DrupalCamp?

 

DrupalCamps are community sharing + training events for Drupal enthusiasts and newbies alike. TexasCamp is an attendee-driven, completely volunteer initiative. Most of the content will be Drupal-specific, but there will also be presentations related to more general web technologies such as HTML5, JavaScript, and PHP.

Why is the event a "Camp"?

 

TexasCamp is called a “camp” to emphasize the unconference style of the event. Unconferences are more casual than most conferences and are usually organized and attended by members of a local community. The name originates from BarCamp, a popular community-driven unconference. Please do not bring your tent :)

What's the goal of TexasCamp?

 

Our mission and purpose behind organizing a TexasCamp is as follows:

  1. Learn and educate about Drupal and web development in general
  2. Provide networking opportunities for all of us

Do you have a Code of Conduct policy?

 

Yes! You may read it here.

Where and when is TexasCamp this year?

 

TexasCamp is a jam-packed learning experience to be held at Fort Work in Downtown Dallas on Saturday, April 1st-2nd, 2016. Registration will be from 8-9am CST, the camp will start at 9am and run until 5 pm, and the after-hours party on Saturday will begin at 6:00pm.

How many are you expecting?

 

Based on attendance at past DrupalCamps in North Texas, we're expecting 150+ attendees.

Will I receive any registration materials in the mail?

 

Nope, everything is handled online. Show up with an ID, printed Eventbrite ticket, or ticket via the Eventbrite app.

We’ll send you a few emails leading up to the conference, but that’s it. When you sign in at TexasCamp, all you need to do is provide your registration information.

Can I pay with a purchase order, check, or cash?

 

We currently only accept credit cards and payments through Eventbrite for ticket sales. If you're a sponsor, email our marketing team for more options!

Is TexasCamp a good event for newbies?

 

Absolutely! We have a special Beginner track for those who are just familiarizing themselves with Drupal.

When will the session submission process close?

 

The deadline for submitting a session will be March 15, 2016. However, we would highly encourage you to submit your session as soon as possible to allow more time for commenting, and general interaction. The organizers will then finalize the schedule, contact the speakers selected to present, and post the final schedule on the website.

If I'm selected to present a session, what do I need to bring?

 

All audio / visual equipment will be provided – just bring your slide deck and laptop. 

What if I signed up, but now have a conflict?

 

Contact us and we can help you transfer your ticket. Unfortunately, we don't offer refunds for tickets.

What do I need to bring?

 

We recommend bringing a laptop and lots of business cards. Dress comfortably. We’ll provide a light breakfast, boxed lunch and afternoon snack!

Will there be enough parking?

 

Yes, there is plenty of parking available on the street and in lots and garages! Check out the Travel page for a list of suggested lots and garages.

How can I help?

 

We're glad you asked – we can use volunteer assistance to help with setting up sessions, picture taking, registration, etc. the day of the event. Please contact us and we will find something for you to do.
