A BarCamp is fluid, and this one certainly was so for the better. A BarCamp is mentally challenging as you always walk away from it thinking of things that can be implemented - TODAY. And a BarCamp is fun, and this one most certainly was. Thanks, Nannette, for welcoming us to Lynchburg!

The REBarCamp seemed to go off without a hitch and it was fantastic. Well worth the drive from Northern Virginia. This was my 3rd BarCamp (the other two were both in San Francisco) and I'm looking forward to my 4th in 2 weeks and hope you'll be there. You should be very proud of the event you pulled together. Lynchburg Squares was very entertaining and I haven't heard a bad comment from anyone who attended last week. All Raves! Nannette,

I enjoy the platforms that enhance our ability to use Social Media the most. Its a great way to learn tips that could have taken weeks months of even years to learn. This was my 2nd camp . I would take time to come to more as my time allows. I think the only think I would like to see more of is packets of information based on keynote speakers. I love the t shirts and the tags but I would love to have something to take back about what we learned and the contact information for any guest speaker so if we want to connect its easy to find there information. Thanks for doing a great job and I would come again ! I love REBARCAMP Its such a open environment and people just creating conversation of learning and insight.

My only regret is that I didn't attend one when I first started experiencing social media (thanks to NRVLiving) last year. Love the format, and speakers you enlisted were all fantastic, engaging and helpful especially Mike Mueller and Sarah Stelmok. Also great getting to meet many of the folks that I have already connected with online. In my opinion, social media and it's usage are on the same short list of things that have changed our world and our business much like the Internet. Don't be afraid of it because it's here to stay and just part of life. Before becoming a Realtor in 2000, I managed a private 400 member golf club and I know exactly what you went through in organizing this event. The day was well organized which was evident from the smooth level of operation that we as participants experienced with great attention to detail thanks to you and your fellow pickle posse. Speaking of attention to detail, when Jeremy Hart and I arrived Wednesday we filled my car with fellow REBCampers and headed to happy hour. On the way back, we added TheRealClint and Audrey Forshey to my taxi and someone mentioned that you would bring us Bojangles the following morning with a simple text message order. That was simply UNBELIEVABLE! Thank you again for that. I'm with Tina Merritt, the shirts, tags etc. didn't mean as much as learning, and engaging with other fine folks much like yourself. Well done!

You were already seriously invested in bringing REBCLBG here and YOU DID A GREAT JOB! I can't tell you how many agents came up to say they were impressed with the speakers, the content and the knowledge that was freely shared. REBCLBG will have a lasting impact especially on the Realtors in the Lynchburg market who attended. Now, go take a nap.

This was my 8th (??) REBC and it's amazing how much new information is shared at each event. To me, the biggest lesson I learned was that the t-shirts, the happy hours, the badges, none of that matters as much as the unselfish sharing of information. And you're right...organizing a REBC IS a LOT of work and taking the day after off is a must! Nannette – you did a fabulous job. This was my 8th (??)
