Welcome to 3D Basecamp

Google SketchUp 3D Basecamp - June 11-13, 2008

3D Basecamp 2008 is a chance for SketchUp people to get together.

Hundreds of designers, architects, woodworkers, engineers, educators and just about everybody else will meet for three days of learning, sharing and 3D fun. There is no cost to take part in this event, though a limited number of people will be invited to attend.

Who: Attendees will be a mix of new and experienced SketchUp users, old friends and SketchUp team members. We estimate that we'll have about 350 to 400 people all together.

What: 3D Basecamp will consist of hands-on workshops, seminars, show-and-tell sessions and more. There will also be an open lab, a design project and a great big party to welcome everyone on the first day. Learn more about the event schedule

Where: The event will be held at Google's headquarters in Mountain View, California. Attendees are responsible for making their own lodging arrangements in the area.

Why: It's been two-and-a-half years since our last 3D Basecamp, and we think it's about time we had another one. When SketchUp people get together, everybody learns a ton.

When: 3D Basecamp is a three-day event. It starts Wednesday, June 11th, and ends Friday, June 13th. Attendees should plan to be around for all three days.

How: Since there are an awful lot of SketchUp people in the world and space at the Googleplex is limited, we doubt we'll be able to accommodate everyone who would like to attend. In order to give everyone a fair chance, we'll select a random group of between 250 and 300 people to receive invitations.
