Let me start this off by saying thank you to all our attendees, speakers, sponsors, volunteers, and especially my fellow organizers. The last few days have been difficult, full of decisions that no other WordCamp has had to make until now.<\/p>\n
The decision to cancel is now out of our hands. The Rosen UCF campus is under an order to remain closed through Sunday, so we are unable\u00a0to go forward with our event.<\/strong><\/p>\n Anyone who purchased a ticket is eligible for a full refund. Please fill out this Google Form to request your refund<\/strong>.<\/a> We will be collecting refund requests through Friday, October 14th<\/strong><\/span>, after which they will go to WordCamp Central for processing. If you purchased your ticket more than 60 days ago, WordCamp Central will contact you to arrange your refund.<\/p>\n When we know what our next event plans are, we will email everyone who purchased tickets to WCORL 2016 (even if you got a refund).\u00a0We are considering other options so the months of planning WCORL 2016 are not in vain.<\/p>\n If you want to use your ticket purchase toward our next event, you do not have to do anything.<\/strong> All non-refunded tickets after the refund period will automatically be carried over to our next event’s “guest list”.<\/p>\n Again, I thank you all for your patience. I want to remind everyone that the WordCamp Orlando organization team is made up of volunteers. As such, we ask that you abide by the Code of Conduct<\/a> and\u00a0treat us with respect. Believe us, no one is more upset about the cancellation than our team.<\/p>\n See you all in 2017 at least!
