Saturday Attendee Survey

Howdy folks,
If you attended the Saturday sessions for WC Philly 2014, could you help us out by filling out our attendee survey so that we can make next year’s WordCamp that much better? We’d be much obliged.

(For those that attended the Sunday dev day session, take heart: we’re working on a separate survey just for Sunday’s activities.)

Thanks!

Visitors Guide to Philly

There is a lot more going on in Philadelphia besides a great WordCamp! If you are looking for the city’s best cheesesteak, interested in seeing where our forefather’s made history in historic Philadelphia or hoping to reenact Rocky Balboa running up the Art Museum steps you can find this information and more at VisitPhilly.com.  The website has a number of weekend itineraries that are sure to fit everyone’s interests.

We have also compiled a short list of major Philadelphia attractions, food options near the Comfort Inn Penn’s Landing and a few popular tour companies. Click here to view the PDF.
