A note on (the lack of a) Barcamp 2012
Hey there. This weekend would be the typical date for Barcamp but the most of the past organizers have become busy with other things and didn't get a chance to put it together this year.
We love Barcamp Des Moines but just ran out of time. Nothing says that there can't be an off schedule Barcamp early in 2013. If you'd like to help organize that, just give Geoff a shout.
Thanks!

Des Moines Social Club/Kirkwood Lounge (tonight!) - Friday December 2
7:30 - 9:30 PM Open to the public. Barcamp attendees, your first drink is on us.

Barcamp Des Moines 2011 is on; buy your ticket now
Hi there Barcamp Des Moines community!
We are on for 2011. Join us December 3 at the Des Moines Central Public Library for the unconference and the evening before for an opening social. Last year's event had a good response, so we're sticking with the same format: presentations in three categories: creativity, technology and entrepreneurship.
Tickets are again a mere $5 and they include a t-shirt, follow up lunch, and drink ticket at the opening social. Tickets on sale now at Tikly.co.
Wondering what exactly Barcamp is? Check out our post "what is barcamp?"
Any questions? Let us know!
Cheers,
Levi Rosol, Drew Larson & Geoff Wood (your organizing team).

Thank you!
Huge thanks to everyone who participated in Barcamp Des Moines 2010 in someway!

(Geoff Wood, Shane Reiser, Levi Rosol, and Drew Larson)
Heading out shortly to pic up our Barcamp Des Moines t-shirts from 8/7 Central. If you have screen printing or design needs, check these guys out. They worked on a very quick turnaround and we're excited for the product.
Reminder: Barcamp opening party tonight at 7:30
We're so excited to see everyone tonight at the opening party for Barcamp Des Moines 2010!
Come on down to The Des Moines Social Club and bring a friend (party open to the public).
One last sponsor for Barcamp in everybody's favorite social banking startup: SmartyPig!
SmartyPig is a major success story for the Des Moines entrepreneurial community and we're glad they wanted to be a party of Barcamp Des Moines 2010.
Welcome Startup Weekend, the most recent sponsor of Barcamp Des Moines! Startup Weekend is a Seattle-based organization that first came to Des Moines in the summer of 2009 when Shane Reiser, a member of our planning team, independently organized one of their events at Impromptu Studio. Shane has since joined the Startup Weekend team full time and now organizes Startup Weekends all over the world.
Thanks Startup Weekend!
Big thanks to Mike Colwell and the Business Innovation Zone for supporting Barcamp Des Moines as a sponsor. Mike's a tremendous resource to entrepreneurs in Central Iowa and should be one of the first people you contact when starting to get your business idea off the ground.

Barcamp DSM welcomes Levi Rosol to planning team!
Iowa Code Camp organizing veteran Levi Rosol raised his hand this week and asked if he could help organize Barcamp DSM and the answer was abundantly yes!
Levi is also the cofounder and lead developer of the local startup ScoreYard, "a social hub for sports fans." Everybody check it out!
He's hard at work already and is the man behind the new @BarcampDSM twitter account!
We have a venue! We choose the meeting room suite at the Des Moines Central Public Library (1000 Grand Avenue). The actual meeting rooms are off Locust near the Starbucks entrance to the Temple for Performing Arts.
Who's the planning team on this thing?
There are three of us planning Barcamp Des Moines in 2010.
Shane Reiser from Startup Weekend
Drew Larson from BrownWinick
Geoff Wood (that's me) from Silicon Prairie News (and others)
& recent addition Levi Rosol from ScoreYard!
Why you three four?
No particular reason, we started chatting over email a couple weeks ago and decided to go for it.
Are your companies behind this?
Ah, yes and no. Our companies all believe in the entrepreneurial ecosystem here in Des Moines and want to see it succeed but working on Barcamp on our own time and of our own desire.
Why are you just posting this now?
Honestly, we didn't think about it. Someone asked yesterday so I thought others might be curious, too.
Can I help?
Sure, we've got lots to do, just send me a note.
