    Meet the WordCamp Asheville Organizers
    WordCamp Asheville is an extension of the local Asheville WordPress Meetup group. After attending WordCamp Atlanta in 2013, several of the Meetup group's attendees came together as a local planning committee and decided that Western North Carolina needed their own event. After much hard work and a lot of help, WordCamp Asheville was born. For more information about WordCamp Asheville please visit the event website or contact the head of the Communications Committee Sarah Benoit at sarah ( @ ) jbmediagroupllc dot com or (828) 242-0277.
