RainCamp Is Coming To The US Capitol - Washington DC

RainCamp Is Coming To The Capitol of the United States of America

Come join us at RainCamp DC for an awesome educational opportunity that will take your Real Estate Business to new heights.  Lots of folks have been screaming for RainCamp to come to the East Coast again, specifically Washington DC, and we want you to know we've been listening.  It's been confirmed!  Time to get the "Air Force One" ready for travel, or at least a really nice Boeing 747.

June 10th - The Kellogg Conference Hotel
Gaullaudet University
 
(ranked top 10 worldwide)


800 Florida Ave NE
Washington, DC 20002

RainCamp DC will be everything you've heard and expect it to be.  Great speakers, New and powerful technology, Special Guests, How and Why to use specific social media tools, and a laser targeted plan for your Real Estate Business that will be essential to your success today, and in the future!

These RainCamp Testimonials are great, but unless you can experience this event first-hand for yourself, you'll never really understand the power and potential this type of education and information can and will have on your Real Estate Business.  There's none quite like it!

Remember To Register early, previous RainCamps have sold out, and the platinum seating is always at a premium.  You can Register here, or at: @ActiveRain.com/RainCamp. Either way, make sure you register fast.  It's no fun getting emails from those of you who miss these.

We look forward to bringing RainCamp to the US Capitol next month.  It's an event good enough to be held at the White House, unfortunately, their venue is very busy and booked with other educational and informational events.  We'll just have to settle this time with the Kellogg Conference Hotel.

YES!  We are coming to many other cities too, so before you comment with "When are you coming to....."  you can be rest assurred that we'll be posting all the information, dates, venues, and locations at the RainCamp site.  :-)

Come Learn, Inspire, and Achieve!

Hey Richard - looking forward to seeing you there, i think you're right.
Lane - we'll have the Air Force One swing by and pick you up! :-)

Brad-I'm already a Platinum member from NYC.   So it think I can attend for free.  How do I sign up without having to pay again?

Thank you! Lots of family in from out-of-town that day so I will likely pack up early, but I'm looking forward to it!

Hmm. Not the southeast but thanks for the east!!!:)

I have been begging for the same thing. I am going to make every effort to make this but I don't think I will be able to get up to DC.

Cindy, Can you shoot me an email about this and I'll follow up with you off line.

Krista, The Southeast is coming soon!

Lisa, We are planning to be in Miami and Atlanta in the next 3-4 Raincamps

Jeff, Thanks for the offer of help to spread the word. It was great seeing you and everyone else who stopped by last night as well!!! I can't wait for RainCampLA this Saturday either.

Posted by Jon Washburn (ActiveRain Corp) about 2 years ago

When will it come back to Houston? It really sucked that I couldn't make the last visit. It's hard to tell a buyer NO when that turns out to be there ONLY day to view properites. I ended up closing that buyer, so it wasn't all bad.

 

Posted by Greg Nino Houston Texas (RE/MAX West Houston Professionals) about 2 years ago

Thanks for the heads up!  I may be in town and maybe able to attend.  Need a speaker?  LOL

I used to live there and first got my license there, oh well.  I bet it will be jammed.

Hello all:

If you can get cheap airfare, this experience is worth traveling for! I learned so much at RainCamp Dallas.

June 10???? If y'all could have scheduled it a week later, I'd have been there. That's finals week for my students, so I can't. Bummer!!!!

Posted by William James Walton, Sr. Greater Waterbury Real Estate (WEICHERT, REALTORS® - Briotti Group) about 2 years ago

The RainCamp in Chicago was fantastic.  People would be crazy to miss this if they were within range to attend in DC.  I think the drive from Indianapolis to DC would be a little bit of a stretch, but maybe next time!

Posted by Brian Black - Indy, Fishers, Carmel IN REALTOR (Kucic Associates Realty - Indianapolis, Fishers, Carmel, IN) about 2 years ago

Hey Brad, Let's plan a Rain Camp in Mission B.C. sometime. Less of a commute for me.

Posted by Terry Chenier (Homelife Glenayre Realty) about 2 years ago

How about a stop in Michigan? Hope to hear of one soon!

Thanks

Tom

Posted by Tom Ramsey (Century 21 Northland) about 2 years ago

Blog-N-Roll Brad...

The link to the calendar is busted. It may considered asking alot, but can someone please let us know about the Orlando RainCamp. I know Orlando is in the works and we want to attend. Howeveer, we need to make plans. Booking a room will be a must for us. And we need to hire someone to feed my gators while I'm gone. You wouldn't want them to starve to death, would ya? :)

TLW...ROAR!

Finally, I have been waiting for this for a long time. . I'll be there

Posted by Fernando Herboso #1 Real Estate Site www.ReallyNiceHomes.com in MD & VA (Herboso & Associates LLC- Broker 240.426.5754) about 2 years ago

Brad - The DC location you selected is fantastic.  I just looked it up on GoogleMaps.  The one thing that ActiveRainers need to know is that many hotels are extremely expensive near the Capitol so they might want to stay in a location further away.

Unfortunately, the Cherry Blossom festival will have ended several weeks before RainCamp.  I love your promo photo.

Posted by Marc Swartz, CA, CPA Toronto, Durham & York Regions, Ontario about 2 years ago

Hi Brad,

 

 

WOW !!!!    RainCamp is a must go to event!!!!!!!!!!!

 

RainCamp Dallas was Fabulous ..

 

 

You will learn sooo  much!!!   

Posted by San Antonio Texas New Homes for Sale (www.sanantoniotexasnewhomesforsale.com) about 2 years ago

Brad - I'm back again.  Hmmm, TLW has gators.  How convenient.  Why visit swampland in Florida to see gators when all you need to do is visit her?   :)

Posted by Marc Swartz, CA, CPA Toronto, Durham & York Regions, Ontario about 2 years ago

I am lookiing forward to attending this event.

Posted by Sarasota International Real Estate about 2 years ago

I hope to be able to attend this event!

Posted by Stephen Howell, Annapolis Maryland Real Estate Agent (Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage) about 2 years ago

Hi Greg,

It's a bummer that we missed you in Dallas. However, the Texas crowd was amazing and I we all enjoyed our time there so much that I bet we will be back within the next six months. Not exactly around right away, but in the scheme of things that's pretty quick.

Jim,

We would love it if you made time to come.  I'll pass your speaking offer to Bob, Ben, and Brad. They are the ones who work with the local experts.

Chris,

The buzz for the raincamps have been consistently increasing, and DC is a huge market, so I'm sure it'll be a great crowd.

Hey Aaron,

Thanks for the props! 

(I was logged in earlier of Brad's account (fixing another error that I made) and accidentally posted this comment as him earlier. Sorry for the confusion.) 

 

Posted by Jon Washburn (ActiveRain Corp) about 2 years ago

This is a great event. Great way to connect and learn.

Posted by Mike Yeo (3:16 team REALTY) about 2 years ago

Terry, You're in luck! We have a Raincamp coming to Bellingham, WA at the end of this month.  That is about the close to Mission as you could ever hope to get. 

Tom, WA DC is probably the closest we'll get to Michigan for a while. Hope you can make it.

Yay Betsy!

TLW, as soon as we have a confirmed venue we'll let you know. Hopefully we will be able to give you plenty of lead time. Right now we are planning for Miami and Atlanta. Orlando will be after those two locations.

Damon - the registration will start at 8:00am, RainCamp runs from 9-5pm.  There's a VIP gathering after the event so you may want to consider spending the night, looking forward to seeing you there.  :-)

Brad, several of us who did the platimum thing in New York are trying to register and can't.  So what's up?

Posted by Patricia Kennedy (Evers & Company Realtors) about 2 years ago

Pat,

I will take care of your ticket and get you registered. If you know of others who bought the platinum pass in New York who are trying to register, please have them leave a comment here or email me directly and I will get their ticket registered as well.

Posted by Bob Stewart - Community Evangelist - ActiveRain (ActiveRain) about 2 years ago

Anything in CT, NY or MA soon?

Posted by Rob Rosa (Rubicon Crossings Realty) almost 2 years ago

It just so happens that the 10th is a perfect day for me. No student exams that day, and I don't have to be back for work the next day, so as soon as I can purchase my platinum ticket, I'll see y'all in DC...YES!!!

Posted by William James Walton, Sr. Greater Waterbury Real Estate (WEICHERT, REALTORS® - Briotti Group) almost 2 years ago

Can you pack me in your suitcase?  lol.  I know MANY are reaping the benefits with Raincamp and also another perk is meeting other members too!

Posted by John Marion (RE/MAX Town & Country) almost 2 years ago

This is right around the corner. Looking forward to seeing what all the hub bub is about. Is laptop access available only for Platinum or do the rest of the seats have electricity/laptop hookup also?

Posted by Cheryl Ritchie, Southern Maryland Real Estate (RE/MAX 100) almost 2 years ago

Brad - The RainCamp signup page billing section only allows US ZIP CODES to be entered for credit cards.  Canadian zip codes are LNL NLN (L = letter, N = number).  How can Canadians enter their billing info?

(I won't have time to go to DC but you should get it fixed for the next RainCamp.)

Posted by Marc Swartz, CA, CPA Toronto, Durham & York Regions, Ontario almost 2 years ago

Brad,

Although he didn't say so this time, Marc would like a Rain Camp in Toronto. And, I think it would be quite popular.

I'm still waiting...

unless you can experience this event first-hand for yourself, you'll never really understand the power and potential this type of education and information can and will have on your Real Estate Business. 

This is true!  I attended in LA.  It was excellent.

One caution.  You will receive so much information your head might explode.  :)

So where is the party?  And when?  Should we locals start to put one together?

Posted by Patricia Kennedy (Evers & Company Realtors) almost 2 years ago

Kinda Short Notice?  It is unfortunate that the raincamps are not planned out farther in advance so that more people can plan to attend.  Just a thought that might make them better.

Posted by Robert May - Lethbridge REALTOR ® and Mortgage Broker (Verico Canada First Mortgage/ Rainbow Realty) almost 2 years ago

Thanks for the suggestion Robert. This was originally announced back in early May but even so, I think you are right.....even more advance notice than that would be optimal.
