ESS 2015 Waitlist Link and Preliminary Schedule

Dearest and Most Skilled Swappers,
We’re blown over by the interest in Skill Swap this year, and we’re writing to let you know that ESS 2015 is sold out. If you didn’t have a chance to register and you still want to come, we do have a waitlist. We sometimes get cancellations, so if you get in off the waitlist, we will let you know as soon as possible.
As a reminder, our cancellation policy is as follows:
  • Please let us know ASAP if you’ve registered and decide not to come.
  • If you let us know by 2 weeks prior to the event (May 8), we will refund your registration fee.
  • After May 8, we cannot guarantee a refund of your registration fee, but we’ll do our best.
A further note that the preliminary schedule is now posted. This schedule is still subject to some changes as we work out final details.
With epic love and anticipation,
ESS 2015 Core Organizing Team

Registration is open for Epic Skill Swap 2015!

Dearest and Most Epic Swappers,
It’s that time: registration is now open for Epic Skill Swap 2015! Registration opened last Friday and we’ve been amazed by how quickly people have been signing up!
Space at Epic Skill Swap is limited to 120 people. This is for two reasons—we want to maintain the intimate, community-based orientation of previous Skill Swaps, and Camp Wilmot cannot comfortably hold too many more visitors than that. We anticipate that there may be more demand than we can accommodate this year, and we encourage you to sign up as soon as possible.
Here’s how it works: go to our Brown Paper Tickets page here. You’ll be guided through the registration process. We are asking for a $15 deposit to reserve your space. Epic Skill Swap operates on a sliding scale price model, out of a recognition that folks have different abilities to pay. At the event, we will let you know the cost per person with as much detail as you’d like (last year actual costs were $54 per person). When you check in, you may pay any remaining balance in an amount of your choice. If the $15 registration fee is a hardship for you, please contact the organizers at EpicSkillSwap@gmail.com.
Cancellation policy:
  • Please let us know ASAP if you’ve registered and decide not to come.
  • If you let us know by 2 weeks prior to the event (May 8), we will refund your registration fee.
  • After May 8, we cannot guarantee a refund of your registration fee.
The preliminary schedule will be forthcoming in the next few days, so keep your eyes peeled. We are epically and lovingly yours, and so much looking forward to May 22!
