In the Winner’s Circle

A special thank you to an incredible line up of speakers who gave of their precious time and effort offering a wide variety of subjects, setting the pace for a fast-paced all-day event.

One of the big hits of a day full of roses was the Winner’s Circle Speaker Room. The brainchild of Speaker Wrangler Sumner Davenport, the generous donation of her Zoom channel allowed speakers and attendees during our intermission/lunch hour and after Closing Remarks to hang out, chat, and relax. So fun, we found ourselves saying, “no, you hang up, you hang up” late into the 7 o’clock hour!

Organizers Shifted Into High Gear

Imagine shifting from being postponed to delivering a live, in-person event to online in just 19 days! A small but fierce Organizing Team, volunteers made it happen without many bumps in the road or potholes.

A tip of the cap to our Global Sponsors

This great day of WordCamp activities was made even better by our ‘on-site’ sponsors, BlueHost, GoDaddy, and GreenGeeks who hosted attendees throughout the day offering great activities and prizes. WordCamp Santa Clarita and other WordCamps would not be possible without their generous support of all our global sponsors:
