celticbuffy: Gotta move around

Elisa Camahort — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 09:59:16 -0500

hi celticbuffy.

Last year our annual event was in Chicago, so when planning this year we decided to use the Reach Out Tour to hit areas of the country we hadn't hit before, namely down the eastern seaboard and across the South.

Keep in mind we also had to find six cities that were truly a day's drive frmo one another, since we are actually chartering a BlogHer Bus to go on this tour!!

Don't know where we'll head next year, but will always try to spread the BlogHer love, geographically speaking.

Midwest

I'm disappointed that none are in the Midwest. All of these events are as far away from the Midwest as the main BlogHer conference. Could you add one next year, say in Minneapolis or Kansas City? Even Chicago or Dallas?

i really hope i can go

i'll be going to greensboro if i can come up with the money, before they sell out or something. is this going to be similar to the confrence in ca. are we going to be getting free swag and all that or it's just a highlight of what happen in ca.

Looking forward to participating

I'm so excited that you're coming to Boston - my home town.

Don't see how to register. Please advise.

sounds exciting, should I go to Nashville or Atlanta?

I can't get to BlogHer in SF, but this seems like a good way to wade in slowly. I live in Chattanooga, so Nashville or Atlanta are both doable. Looking forward to more information.

Thanks for the offer!

Thanks, Koan -

I'll put you on the list and be in touch a little sooner to the event dates. :)

BlogHer Hotel Room Blocks

Hi Reesie,

Thanks for posting this. Along with our venue search (which is on full-swing), we will be offering attendees discounted room rates at the hotels where the conferences will take place. Hopefully we won't sell out and will be able to offer attendees reasonable room rates!

Boston Hurrah!, But, that's Columbus Day Weekend

Reesie — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 10:17:59 -0600

I know most of the country is going Coumbus Day Weekend???? So What?
Actually, it is a big deal in the North East. There's no school the following Monday and many schools give the kids Friday off via teacher education days.

I'm beyond thrilled you are coming to Boston, BUT attendees beware, if you want a hotel room start thinking about booking soon. At that time of year New England is dressed to the nines in fall colors and is a popular tourist attraction, so it can be hard to find a room at a decent rate.

Can't wait!
Lee

Excellent dates! :)

As I mentioned here, I'd love to volunteer in some capacity on this roadtrip - and those dates would work perfectly for me!

So, anyway, the offer's still there.

As you may have heard, we are taking the BlogHer Annual Event on the road!

Following BlogHer Business in April and BlogHer '08 in July, we will be bringing six, one-day conferences to cities along the East Coast.

Each conference will include a full day of programming and conclude with a cocktail reception. And while the agenda will be similar from city to city, each event will be unique in its mix of content, speakers and attendees (so you can feel free to join us at as many different locations as you want!).

Boston...........Saturday, October 11
DC..................Monday, October 13
Nashville........Thursday, October 16
Greensboro....Saturday, October 18
Atlanta.............Tuesday, October 21
New Orleans...Saturday, October 25

Registration will open in March, but we encourage you to mark your calendars and let others know you'll be there!
