one thing i’ve learned in life, is that it’s easier to live one life, instead of several. by coming out, and uniting the “multiple lives” we sometimes put on, it not only gives the LGBTQ a greater visibility in this world, but it also can be a great source of inner peace. acknowledging who we are can be difficult, but also rewarding.
after a great discussion today for lunch, i felt inspired to write a little about something i noticed: queercamp will be indescribable.
now why would i describe queercamp as indescribable? well, first reason is that you can’t just sum up the queercamp idea in a sentence. heck, you can’t even sum it up in a paragraph. but also, it’s something that will mean something different to every person involved. i’m sure you’ve heard the phrase “what you put into something is what you’ll get out of it.” i think this phrase can be taken even a step further when speaking about an “unconference” like queercamp. we all bring something to the table. we all have differnet passions, different carreers, different toolsets, different viewpoints, (etc).
all of these “different pieces” end up being extremly crutial to strenghten and grow community. every person’s passions are important for queercamp.
this is a very important concept to grasp for queercamp to work. this isn’t like a conference where you sit, and listen to a supposed “expert” rain down wisdom from thine highest conference podium… this is where we sit in a circle and discuss, learn, share, teach, network and grow. this is where everyone brings what they are passionate about, and lead a session, workshop or discussion about it. this is where people connect to brainstorm the solutions to problems. where people meet to bridge gaps in communities. where people work together to make the world a better place.
so this is what queercamp really is all about.
things are starting to come together around here… queercamp.org
many of the initial website glitches and bugs have been squashed and fixed. brainstorming & discussions have started, and the excitement is growing about the first ever “unconference” dedicated to LGBT issues, awareness, community building, etc.
follow the creation of a movement by following queercamp…
hey, we want to hear from you as well! let us know what you envision for queercamp. leave a comment, or drop us a message on one of the above networks, or even send us an email. we can achieve much more when we work together.
queercamp is looking for more great minds to brainstorm what queercamp is going to be. and going with the “barcamp” mentality, the people/community are the ones that run the show. if you are interested, please contact us! thanks
welcome to queercamp.org. there will be stuff here soon. 
oh, and please excuse the dust of the website. it’s a work in progress. (plus, i haven’t even tested it out on all browsers quite yet. so if you see some “funky” things, feel free to send me an email and i’ll work on fixing that. )
edit: yea.. i know comments aren’t working yet. i’ll work on that tonight. hold tight
