# Going camping this weekend? Code Camp gathers folks across languages, databases, and frameworks

We’re moving into the busy season for conferences and camps. And one of the first big ones of the year is always [Portland Code Camp](http://portlandcodecamp.org/ "Portland Code Camp"), a gathering of coders from across the spectrum of development.

> All languages, all technologies, and all platforms are welcome! As software developers, we share a lot in common regardless of the languages and tools we are using. We love solving problems and finding new ways to bring our software skills to bear on problems. At Portland Code Camp we celebrate our common interests and we get to learn how other people are solving similar problems in different ways. That could be for a server or a smartphone, the browser or the desktop, open source or commercial software, something serious for work or fun for entertainment. It’s all welcome at Portland Code Camp. So tell us about something new, something you find valuable in your work, or that side project that keeps you fresh and learning new things!

Then join your peers at the [Eliot Center](http://calagator.org/venues/202392203 "Eliot Center") at 8AM on Saturday, June 2. You’ll be chatting about everything from C++ to Azure from Hadoop to development techniques and from ASP.NET to Python.

The event is entirely free, but [you’ll need to register so they know what numbers to expect](http://pdxcodecamp2012.eventbrite.com/ "Register for Portland Code Camp").
