Greetings, campers! As of this afternoon, we’ve reserved our main venue spaces and just need to finalize a few more key details before opening up registration on April 1st! I know we’ve been quiet for a while, so I’d like to give you all an update on what we have planned so far…

We’ve booked a different venue for each day of THATCamp IMMERSe. This arrangement gives campers a chance to see more of what both “UpTown” Waterloo and downtown Kitchener have to offer, and to partake in fun gaming and social events sponsored by The Games Institute, THEMUSEUM, and Kitchener City Hall. Most of our THATCamp activities will be held in downtown Kitchener, within an easy walking distance of both recommended hotels and the main transit hubs. Events on Friday July 12th will be held in UpTown Waterloo, approximately 10 minutes up the road by car or bus.

So here’s what’s on the agenda:

• July 12th: Workshops will be held at the Centre for International Governance Innovation, located at 57 Erb Street West in UpTown Waterloo.
  
• July 13th: Unconference sessions will be held at Kitchener City Hall, located at 200 King Street West in downtown Kitchener.
• July 14th: A public showcase and gaming event, as well as a private THATCamp Design Lab, will be held at THEMUSEUM, located at 10 King Street West in downtown Kitchener. Admission to this event will be covered by The Games Institute, but THEMUSEUM will also be offering discounted tickets to their other summer exhibits.

Details about social events and a few other surprises will be updated as soon as we know more.
