WordCamp Albuquerque 2020 Postponed due to COVID-19

Dear Friends,

It is with a heavy heart that I must inform you that WordCamp Albuquerque 2020 has been postponed due to COVID-19 concerns.

Though the threat level in New Mexico continues to be low, we have made the difficult decision as a Team to postpone the event until later in the year once the risk and panic around the virus have subsided.

We have all worked very hard to make this an awesome WordCamp. After meeting today, our Team came to the conclusion that the current atmosphere with regards to concern about travel and large events means that it would be best to host WordCamp later in the year after this difficult time has passed.

We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you at this time.

We are all still very motivated to put on an awesome WordCamp later this year and we hope that you will join us for our rescheduled WordCamp. The event will likely be rescheduled for the Fall, but we would like to wait and see how things go in the next couple of months before committing to a new date for WordCamp.

WordCamp Central is currently processing ticket refunds for ticket holders automatically, but it can take up to a week for this refund to appear in your account, depending on your bank.

If you would like to stay up to date about when WordCamp will be rescheduled, please sign up for our eNewsletter thru this link: http://eepurl.com/gO1M31

If you have any questions, please contact us via our Contact page.

Best Regards,
Acacia Carr
Lead Organizer WordCamp Albuquerque 2020
