    Agile Coach Camp 2025 opens this weekend!

    Hello all you Agile people!

    Another year, another Agile Coach Camp! This year reasonably early. We’ll be starting the yearly BBQ around 6 PM on March 28th. It will be the usual location, Hotel Restaurant De Vossenberg in Vierhouten.

    We have a new ticketsite up and running at WeTicket. The ticketsite can be reached through:

    www.ACCNL25.nl

    The following tickets are available:

    • Basic shared room ticket (€ 270,-) Our most affordable ticket with entry to our event for three days, meals included, a room shared with another Coach Camp participant. You can tell us in the question section if you have a preference for someone.
    • One person budget room ticket (€ 280,-) The hotel has a limited amount of top floor single rooms that we get for a reduced price. This ticket includes one of those rooms with all the perks listed in the Basic shared room ticket. Be quick though as there are few (3) available.
    • One person room ticket (€ 345,-) This is a ticket which includes some of the regular single person rooms. We only have 4 of these. The ticket includes everything the other tickets have as perk.
    • One person apartment room ticket (345,-) This ticket includes a room in one of the foor apartments that are not in the hotel. The apartments have two bedrooms that we offer as single person rooms. There is also a small living room area that you will share with another participant of our event. The bathroom is also shared. We sell these at the same price as a single room as there is a higher cost to these apartments. The perks will again be the same as the other tickets.
    • Day ticket (€ 165,-) This is a ticket we offer for those who do not want to stay in the hotel. We can only offer this ticket for Saturday due to logistics reasons. The ticket includes access to the event on Saturday including the meals.

    Drinks will be regulated using coins that we offer as part of the ticket price. There are no unlimited coins, so choose your drinks wisely…. Of course we will have coffee, tea and fizzy drinks available throughout the day.

    money makes the world go around

    To help us out financially, and make sure we can keep organizing the Agile Coach Camp, we also bring back sponsor tickets with three levels:

    • Sponsor ticket Friend level for € 10,-
    • Sponsor ticket Good friend level for € 50,-
    • Sponsor ticket BFF level for € 100,-

    You can buy as many sponsor tickets as you want. Obviously the level names are in jest. We appreciate EVERY level of sponsorship we get equally.

    All sponsor tickets will go to our financial buffer to pay for things like pens, stickies, lanyards, conference room rent, event insurance, our website costs, our bank costs and general costs.
    Enough financial buffer also means that we can keep our prices as low as possible.

    We are a non profit foundation and have no income besides what is coming in through the ticket site.

    We are looking forward to seeing you in March!

    Let’s go, sales!

  • Tenth Agile Coach Camp Netherlands

    We’re SO close! At the time of writing this we’re one week away from the tenth annual Agile Coach Camp Netherlands. Not that we started in 2014, no we did start in 2012 and unfortunately lost two Coach Camps due to COVID. However we’re back and we intend to make this one awesome.

    On Saturday our Marketplace starts after breakfast at 9:00. The first sessions will begin at 10:00.

  • Agile Coach Camp 2024

    We had a great Agile Coach Camp 2023 last year. We were finally back after too long. The interruption by Covid did cause us to miss our 10 year anniversary.

    Guess what?!

    Our anniversary is this year!! 2024 is the year that we are organizing Agile Coach Camp for the tenth time at our wonderful location Hotel Restaurant De Vossenberg.

    Our sales will start on January 14th, so don’t miss that!

  • Agile Coach Camp 2020 Postponed

    Dear Agile Coach Campers,

    Last week was pretty hard for us as organizers. The advice from the government did not give us clear guidelines for our little event, as they limited their advice to events of larger than 100. With 50 participants there was not “reason” to cancel or postpone.

    But we did not feel good about this. The growing number of people getting sick. Companies advising their employees to avoid large meetings of people and also to stay home to work from there. We were getting bad feelings about bringing together people in an event, no matter how small. Also if companies ask people to avoid events like ours, how would that affect our Coach Camp. Imagine our participants getting sick after joining our event. Imagine them or their parents dying.

    First we sent out communication that we would continue on, but things kept deteriorating. By the end of the week we felt really bad about it. And thus we decided to review this decision. We sent out a poll to see what you would say. If you would actually join us. And we spoke to each other to look at the options. We also called the hotel and the insurance company to look at possibilities.

    The hotel will have large problems. But they understood the pinch we are in. They expected a large loss of clientele.
    The insurance company did not have an answer to our question. They would call back later.
    The poll showed a good number of you would not be able to come. So for us the solution would be to move it. To hold it at a later moment.

    We’ve made investments, bought materials and made other costs to create the level of quality you know from our previous coach camps. We are unable to pay back all the tickets, so postponing was the best answer.

    The hotel offered us an option in November, a good date, and we offered to pay half the rooms, so they would not lose too much income at this point.

    The insurance company was not as understanding. The government has set a limit on the number of participants of an event, but even with staff we won’t make it to 100 people. The insurance company keeps to that number though and says we have no reason to cancel or postpone. We need to see the insurance costs as a loss.

    We now have a date to look forward to. We are thinking about a theme for this coach camp as well. It is the first time we have a coach camp set in autumn instead of spring. So nature in Vierhouten will be different. So get ready for November 6-8, 2020 Agile Coach Camp!

    If you have tickets and problems with this date, please get in contact with us on AgileCoachCampNL@gmail.com and we will look for solutions.
    If you failed to get a ticket last time, as it was sold out quickly. Then also contact us. We can swap the tickets of those who cannot come.

    See you in November!!!
