Due to the worldwide Coronavirus/COVID-19 response and in consideration of the health of our community, we have reconsidered the implications of moving forward with business as usual for MidCamp. While there are currently no travel or gathering warnings for Chicago, we need to consider that historically, >40% of our attendees travel to the event. Additionally, current advice and historical evidence suggest that proactive steps are essential in containing the network effects of the virus.

Fortunately, we have the tools and ability to share our information in a remote manner, and as such we’re moving MidCamp to a 100% remote format this year. There’re many details to work out, but our aim is to deliver the same quality content on the same schedule as we would have done in person.

What does this mean for attendees?

• All social events will be cancelled.

• All Wednesday trainings will be cancelled.

• All tickets will be refunded.

  • We are still accepting individual sponsorship donations. Donations will go toward deferring cancellation costs, toward costs of the virtual event, and towards our 2021 event.

• If you’ve booked accommodations with the Midcamp 2020 group at Hotel Versey, call (773) 525-7010 to cancel. 

  • Cancel 24 Hours prior to 4pm day of arrival to avoid 1 Night charge plus tax.

Our goal is to maintain the high-quality content you've come to expect from MidCamp without adding any risk to the community we care so deeply about. We appreciate your patience and flexibility with this change of format. If you have any questions at all, feel free to contact us at info@midcamp.org, or hop into our Slack https://mid.camp/slack.

Thanks again for your support!
