It's been a while since we've had the honor of hosting an MSDN event here in NW Arkansas. Fortunately, Zain and Jeremy Sharp helped put on a small Code Camp for our area as our first event.
I am currently trying to organize an MSDN mini event to be held here. IWe tentatively have it scheduled for November 30th. The hopes is to have several topics covered by Zain Naboulsi and a guest speaker. I really want a good turnout for this. The larger the turnout, the better chance of having future events held here.
One of the main reasons I've never tried to organize a full blown Code Camp or other event is that I'm afraid of a low turnout. The last MSDN event had around 40-50 developers show up. But I'd really like to see upwards of 80-100 show up.
