We are quite excited! We have two new capabilities to share with you that is going to make life much easier in the ParentCamp world.
- Zoom has released the capability for attendees to choose their own rooms! Yeah! That means we can open registration up even earlier for Virtual ParentCamp, no longer do you have to choose which room you wish to start your evening in. We have a couple of weeks open and are adding more to the event calendar.
- We have new event and registration capabilities on our website. It took a lot of playing and messing around with, but we believe we have it figured out. No longer waiting for that email at 5 pm ET on Virtual ParentCamp day, now you will receive a confirmation and a Zoom link right after registering.
So go ahead and register for October 21st and November 4th Virtual ParentCamp now!
