      <title>Hello Mother. Hello Father. Greetings from Camp, Twin Cities SharePoint . </title>
      <description>  
&lt;p class="Publishwithline" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;Well, the first bi-annual &lt;b&gt;Twin Cities SharePoint&lt;/b&gt; Camp has been a rousing success.  We had over 140 attendees and 22 Sessions representing some of the best and brightest minds in the area on SharePoint.  The weather for the event was a pristine sunny day, and the turnout for this event was phenomenal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="Publishwithline" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;We did have 24 presentations scheduled, which means two sessions that were scheduled did not occur.  We had one illness that prevented a workflow session ("&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;The Wonders of Workflows") &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal; color: #000000; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;from happening.  &lt;strong&gt;Jason Ruby&lt;/strong&gt; contacted us in advance of this absence, and his organization &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;New Horizons of Minnesota&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal; color: #000000; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt; went above and beyond by adding a special SharePoint Camp attendees only class at a 50% discount on July 9-11&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;*&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal; color: #000000; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;)   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;On the Other Hand, we did have one presenter absence&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;Jerry Sevier&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt; of &lt;a href="http://www.ilmservice.com/"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #800080"&gt;ILM Professional Services&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, whose presentation was on Web Content Management.  I can only apologize on his behalf for this occurrence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;I enjoyed meeting many new individuals and seeing many others again at this event.  Every attendee received a great days worth of information on SharePoint, and a very nice Inaugural Twin Cities SharePoint Camp Baseball Cap, sure to be a collector's item.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;I would once again like to personally thank all those who helped to make this event happen, our presenters, volunteers, and sponsors: &lt;a href="http://www.microsoft.com/sharepoint/default.mspx"&gt;Microsoft&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://nhmn.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #800080"&gt;New Horizons of Minnesota&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.magenic.com/"&gt;Magenic&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.rbaconsulting.com/"&gt;RBA Consulting&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.inetium.com/"&gt;Inetium&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.sogeti.com./"&gt;Sogeti USA&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.cdw.com/"&gt;CDW Corporation&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.dcmsusers.com/"&gt;Digital Concourse&lt;/a&gt;,  et al .  Without your efforts this event would not have been possible. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'tahoma','sans-serif'"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Look for the Twin Cities SharePoint Camp v.2 coming in the November/January timeframe!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
