The Details


Hello EdCampers -

We have over 150 people signed up to come and more are signing up by the day.
We have been able to get nearly enough sponsorship to cover the cost of lunch and breakfast so you do not need to bring $5 for lunch however small donations will be accepted at the registration table.  Speaking of donations, please visit our sponsor page to see the organizations responsible for helping us out - ACTEM, ABCya, BizCompass, The MacSmith, Rainstorm Consulting, Portland Sea Dogs, Gulf of Maine Research Institute, and more.
We will be providing breakfast snacks, coffee, lunch and afternoon snacks.  In an attempt to make this EdCamp as “green” as possible, we ask that you bring your own water bottle and coffee mug.  We will have jugs of water for refilling but we will not be providing bottled water or drinks.
We have CEUs!  USM has granted us 0.6 CEU for participating in EdCamp Maine.  If you are interested in getting the credit, please bring a $20 check made out to “University of Southern Maine”.  We will have a form for you to fill out.  Payment must be brought to EdCamp because we need to send USM one packet of registrations and checks.
Other details to remember:
Date - Saturday, March 31st 8:00 am -3:15 pm
Registration will open at 8:00am and our Opening Meeting will be at 8:30am.



Where - Waynflete School, 360 Spring Street Portland ME
Waynflete School has many buildings in a 2 block neighborhood of Portland.  We will be convening in the Arts Center Building.  If you are using Google Maps, put in “14 Storer Street, Portland” as your destination.  We have a few small parking lots, but most of the parking will be on the streets of Portland (please be conscious of the 2-hour parking zones).  We will post driving and parking directions on the website.
What to bring: Any notetaking device - ipad, iphone, chromebook, laptop.  Any materials you may need to present including a dongle to connect to a projector.
