We’re nearing the 3-week mark until we kick off the first-ever WordCamp Whistler; a world-class conference in an amazing location all for the sake of networking, talking, and absorbing all that is WordPress (the world’s top blogging platform and system of choice for this site and many others).

Walking in to the Cascades Casino in Langley we were turned away immediately. No to worry though, we were actually just redirected to the Coast Hotel around back.
