On November 1, 2010, a group of small town advocates and technology geeks will convene at the Fox Theater in Hutchinson, Kansas, for the first 140 Characters Conference Small Town.

We’ll be finding new voices and sharing them on the national stage, and involving the world in discussion, real time to watch, connect and engage with us.
This can’t be just about Hutchinson. It’s about all of us in small towns, all over. I need you to help find the people who ought to attend. I need your help in reaching out and promoting.
- Help spread the word: Blog, tweet, Facebook, and email your small town networks.
- Have something to say, or a story to tell? Put in a speaker proposal.
- Want to get your organization involved? Sponsor the conference by sending an email to me or to: jeff@140conf.com
- Check the official website: 140Conf SmallTown As we get more details, that is where we’ll post them.
And mark your calendars for November 1. You might want to schedule an extra day or two, just to see all the cool stuff in Hutch.

Thanks so much Becky…. this is gonna be great for all of us. Honestly… my Hometown deserves it to… we are working our butts off around here..:)
Cody, I grew up in Winfield and am constantly excited to hear what’s going on in Hutch from Sheila.
Congratulations on the #140conf!
Thanks James… Pretty exciting that we got Jeff to bring 140conf to South Central Kansas!
Wish we could be there, but we already have other commitments! We have had a lot of contact over the past two years with various enthusiastic folks in Hutchinson – they are a town full of passion – that much is obvious. I hope lots of folks will attend and learn lots!
