For those of you who have attended #EdCampMSP you might have noticed Tom and I running around in bowling shirts. The reason is simple, if you need to find one of us - look for the bowling shirts. But why? At the first EdCamp we attedned we couldn't find the organizers and we felt it was important to make sure attendees could find us at ours. Although since we have been doing this for 6 years, we have a few others who wear bowling shirts and I thought it would be fun to quickly introduce them to you all.
Tom and I have always felt a bowling shirt as a way to say thank you for the time and effort these individuals have put in to the event. Our first recipients were Laurie and Jasen, these two worked for hours to plan our first and second EdCampMSP in 2012. Kris and Shanna, served as our Site Chairs in 2013, 2014, and 2015, and they both put in HOURS to make sure that we could literally show up and everything was taken care of. In 2015 we honored Donna, Karla, and Tricia for their longtime help at EdCampMSP. Some years, this one included, we have kept the bowling shirt recipient a secret.
The only thing we ask is, if you see one of these people at EdCampMSP on Saturday, thank them for their support in making this day a reality. Also cheer really loud when our recipient get's theirs this year - the reason is pretty amazing.
