Thanks for pointing our your post to us! I think you hit it on the nose with “There’s something about the non-hierarchical style that draws the right energy for networking and long-lasting meaningful connections. More peer-to-peer friendliness and helpfulness; less showing off who knows more.”

Nice wrap up Val. I have attended several BarCamps and conferences but Western Mass ranks as one of the better functions both from a fun and financial standpoint. The technical sessions are on the same caliber as “big city” events and the after party was great. One extra tidbit I did learn was not to bother with bar hopping once the party is started because the magic of the day is lost in the move. Looking forward to attending the next camp.
