We were actually going to be on the backs of camels in the Sahara Desert during the conference this weekend, but it got pushed back a few days. So CamelCamp will follow MooseCamp by about a week.
Have fun at this year’s conference, which promises to be bigger and better than ever. Be sure to thank the organizers, volunteers, speakers and sponsors when you see them. It’s a non-profit conference and nobody gets paid. So what you see is the sum of a lot of blood, sweat and tears.
If you want to drop by and say Hi, I believe I’ll virtually be an expert in our ‘Ask an Expert’ booth on Saturday morning. More details to follow.

I’m pleased to join in on the usual round of announcing Northern Voice 2008 (see also the event in Facebook). Huzzah! The format–Friday for Moose Camp, Saturday for more formal conference–and location–UBC Forestry Building–will be the same as last year, more or less. Here are the important dates:
- The conference is Friday, February 22 and Saturday, February 23.
- There’s talk of a party or some kind of social event (though not a dinner) on Thursday, February 21.
- Speaker submissions close on December 10. Speaker selection will be announced before Christmas.
Registration isn’t open yet, but it will be soon. I’ll post a note when you can officially register. We’re also seeking sponsors as per previous years–contact the organizing committee if you’re interested.
Seeing as I’m on the wrong continent, I’m just participating in an advisory capacity, and virtually helping out where I can.
