Bootcamp and Blog update

I hope everyone is having a great summer. I have been traveling a fair amount spending time with family during this summer season. I have been slow the last couple of weeks on the blog updates but have still been very busy working on offline blog actions and upcoming content.

We had our first Sustainable Startup Boot Camp on the afternoon of Thursday July 21st. It was Awesome! 10 of us were there and the energy was super cool! The first thing we did was establish the purpose and values of the boot camp and then the actions that will allow us to measure if each of us are managing and participating in Boot Camp based on the "Boot Camp Values" we established. I would so like to write more about this but I think I will leave that to the people that attended. If you attended I encourage you to share your experience, questions and insight in the comment section at the end of this post.

Secondly, I wanted to let everyone know that Blogger has a bug that is affecting the Members listing section of 1000's of blogs that are hosted on the Blogger platform. I apologize for this bug and thank you for letting me know about the problem. You can still sign up as a member of the blog by clicking on the FOLLOW BLOG button at the top of the blog in the thin blue header, (third button from the left). All the bug is currently doing is somehow not letting the Members list be visible on the side bar of the Blog. I am not sure how long it will be before it is fixed. If you are trying to sign up and having problems or have any concerns in general please email Erika, erika@cameronchell.com so that as soon as the problem is fixed or we know of the solution we can inform you.

Thanks for follwoing Sustainable Startup Blog and another thanks to those who were able to attent the 1.st. Sustainable Startup Boot Camp. The Next Boot Camp will be held on Friday August 21st. 12pm (lunch will be served) to 3pm. Please let Erika, erika@cameronchell.com know if you can attend. Boot Camp will be held at Tarco Engineering, (thanks again Tarco - you guys are AMAZING!) 3004, Odgen Rd. S.E., Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

I will sign off tonight letting you know you can expect to see a new blog post as it relates to the next step "A Working Plan" next week.
