THE DATE

Saturday, June 13, 2020

TUNE IN FROM HOME

First things first! On Saturday, June 13, you’ll receive an email with your link and password to access the exclusive Summer Camp site. Please note: All content will go live on Pacific Daylight Time (PDT), including the launch of the exclusive Summer Camp site. To find out what time a session is happening in your time zone, use this handy time zone converter.

Summer Camp is made up of pre-recorded video sessions hosted via Vimeo and live video sessions streaming via Zoom. We recommend that you have a strong WiFi connection and find a comfortable place to tune in from home. Summer Camp is optimized for desktop, so it is best viewed via a computer or laptop, rather than a tablet or phone.

While the live content is specifically designed to be watched in real-time, you’ll be able to access and view it until Friday, June 19 at 5pm PDT (Insiders, you have all-access even after the cutoff via your C&C Insiders dashboard!). Tickets will be available to purchase until June 19 at 5pm PDT.

THE SCHEDULE

Summer Camp is built just like our in-person conferences, which, of course, you all know and love. We have a stacked schedule with an A-list line-up of speakers so we suggest taking notes along the way.

Want the full lineup? Check out the play-by-play schedule to map out your big day. Please note, all times are listed in PDT (Pacific Daylight Time), as C&C headquarters is located in sunny Los Angeles. To find out what time a session is happening in your time zone, use this time zone converter.

It’s going to be HUGE so we recommend getting a head start on planning out your day now. Download this handy checklist to keep track of the pre-recorded video sessions and this checklist to keep track of the LIVE video sessions to make sure you don’t miss anything.

THINGS TO PREP AHEAD OF TIME

Here are a few things to prep before the big day so it goes off without a hitch:

Make sure you have a strong WiFi connection.
Install Zoom on your desktop computer or laptop and test it out.
- Zoom tips:
  - Find a quiet place to tune in. Try to situate yourself in a small room that does not have an echo.
    - Try and stay away from noisy electronics and silence your cell phone and computer notifications for an optimal experience.
  - When possible, limit your internet connection to solely the device you’re using for the Zoom conference.
    - Set your phone to airplane mode, pause your television connection, ask others in your home to pause anything that may require a strong internet connection, etc.
Set aside your athletic gear and your mat (or towel) and fill up your water bottle for our morning moves session with BK Yoga Club. No equipment needed!
Gather the ingredients you’ll need to make an immunity-boosting smoothie during the breakfast workshop with Weelicious. Get the ingredients list and the recipe here!
Purchase the supplies you’ll need in order to follow along with the workshops in real-time if you’d like! You can find shoppable supplies checklists for each workshop here. Scroll down to The Schedule and click on the “Supplies Checklist” below each workshop to open up PDFs with shoppable links.
Download the workshop downloads so you can follow along with the expert in real-time. Note: Your exclusive workshop downloads will be available on Saturday, June 13 via the exclusive Summer Camp site, which you will gain access to on the day-of.
Take the What Is Your Instagram Content Creator Type Quiz prior to the Content Coordination: How to Plan Your Content and Build Instagram Workflows for Your Creative Type workshop powered by Tailwind.
Peruse the list of mentors who will be answering questions in real-time in hour-long Zoom webinars and choose your mentor(s).
- We have experts in everything from raising money to creating engaging content to growing a dedicated following on social media. If there’s more than one mentor you want advice from, don’t worry! You can hop from session to session over the course of the hour if you’d like.
- Don’t forget to jot down any questions you have for the mentor sessions ahead of time! You’ll be able to ask your Qs in real-time by typing them into Zoom’s Q&A feature.

NETWORK

Networking is a huge part of our event and our Create & Cultivate Summer Camp Attendees Slack Workspace is a great place to mix and mingle with your fellow Create & Cultivators before, during, and after the big day. We’ve created channels for every workshop and panel, as well as channels for international attendees, networking, and more!

Attendees will receive a link to access our Create & Cultivate Summer Camp Attendees Slack Workspace in our What to Expect newsletter on Wednesday, June 10. This Slack channel will remain accessible until Friday, June 19 at 5 pm PDT. Not familiar with Slack? Here are a few tips to get you started:

Download the Slack app to your phone, computer, or both
Complete your account profile with a profile photo, your name, and what you do
Public conversations will happen in the channels (ex: #networking) and are located on the left-hand side of the app. You can also start direct messages with others in the Slack workspace
Hit send too early on a message? Slack has an edit feature! Click the three-dot icon located on the right side of the message to open the drop-down of message options
We’re all about GIFs at C&C! Here are instructions on how to integrate GIPHY into your Slack account.
Our Slack workspace is a busy, happening place on the day of the event. Streamline the notifications you receive by using the “mute” feature on channels that don’t pertain to you. To mute a channel, simply open up that channel, click the three-dot icon labeled “more,” and select the mute option
Most importantly, be kind and respectful of others. If you don’t follow this rule, you will be removed from the Slack group

If you have any questions on the day of the event about navigating the schedule, accessing the workshop downloads, or anything else, you can drop them into the customer service channel in Slack.
