There will still be a Net2LFT meeting on Tues April 13th at the Travis Technology Center from 6-9pm, but it will feature different speakers focused on a variety of topics related to Lafayette, technology, and community engagement.

Welcome to CampFiber

CampFibers are a series of unconferences for fiber communities focused on bringing together interest groups within a community to discuss what fiber can do for them and brainstorm about what the fiber-powered future looks like.

CampFibers are inspired by BarCamps where everyone who attends is prepared to contribute in some way, be it through giving a presentation, commenting on the presentations of others, or just generally engaging in the conversation.

The typical format of a CampFiber is to have a series of short presentations by participants about either things they're already doing with fiber or things they think could and should be done with fiber.

The first two CampFibers were held for app developers in Lafayette, LA in 2008 and 2009.

If you'd like to hold a CampFiber in your fiber community, feel encouraged to do so! CampFibers are about community and are what you make of them.

If you do put together your own CampFiber, let us know so that we can promote what you've done on this site!
