RootsCamp

Zack Exley is seeing his idea for "RootCamps" really take off. As of now, RootCamps are planned for SF, NY, Bloomington, Columbus and DC.

These events (with the exception of DC — see below for details) are free and open to all progressives who participated in the 2004 or 2006 elections — or even those who plan on being a part of 2008. These are "open space" conferences that allow all participants to hold sessions about their speciality, to present findings, tell stories, or important questions. You attend only the sessions that interest you — and there is plenty of time for learning to take place in hallway conversations.

I'm going to the DC one, although I have to miss the first day because my older brother, Andy, is receiving an award as Rheumatologist of the Year in NJ that day—an award he earned by spending too much time with his patients. [Tags: politics netroots zack_exley]
