Do you have memories or mental images of summer camp? It's all about meeting new people, trying new experiences, laughing and playing, and growing closer together.
In the spirit of summer camp, we've upgraded the way we welcome new members to our world renowned online community with even more focus on community and connections. It's the BEST way to join our remote coworking community, hands down.
With this new welcome program, you can join Indy Hall's community from anywhere, and in small groups instead of alone to make sure you will start to feel connected from day one.
If you've been following the adventures of Indy Hall for a while, but felt like you couldn't join because of your physical location or your work situation, great news: Indy Hall Summer Camp is made just for you!
Wanna meet people with similar values, across a wide range of industries and work styles? Your Summer Camp bunk is likely to include fellow career changers, solopreneurs, remote workers, and more.
The first days after joining a new (and large!) community can be overwhelming, no matter how excited you are to be there. How do you get to know people when it
The key to what makes Indy Hall Summer Camp special is the chance to join alongside a small, tight knit group of people who are joining at the same time as you.
If you've ever done something alone, and thought "it sure would be nice to do this alongside other people," you can turn to your bunk first, and then tap into the entire Indy Hall community.
Take a group virtual tour of Indy Hall's online spaces, and learn how to get the most of your membership. Tell your origin story and learn the surprising similarities you have with other Summer Camp participants.
Get inspired by learning about someone's new project, career moves, and special interests. Ask for feedback or advice for something you're working on. Even kick back and watch "live" music, or swap book recommendations.
There's no one right way, and you don't need to worry about coming to everything. We'll help you build trust, connections, and relationships with your bunk. You'll feel like a community regular in no-time.

The only thing we're missing is you!
There’s no FOMO at Indy Hall, and you’re definitely not expected to come to everything on the calendar.
Your Summer Camp Welcome Program will take place during one specific work week in late July/early August.
We think you'll have a great welcome experience coming to as few as 2-3 mini events (approx 1 hour each) during your Welcome Program.
And while we have at least a couple of small community gatherings you could attend on any given day, it's more valuable to find your favorites that fit into your schedule and align with your interests, and keep coming back.
Indy Hall is 100% an experience where the more you put in, the more you get out!
Your Welcome Program will take place during one work week in late July/early August. After that, you'll have access to your community Bunk, as well as full access to the entire Indy Hall community to browse, enjoy, and participate at your leisure.
Many parts of Indy Hall work well asynchronously, including a lot of our text chat & discussion list; any live events are scheduled for specific times, and anything hosted by the Indy Hall core team will take place during US business hours.
While our team and physical coworking space are located in Philadelphia, Indy Hall members log-in from all over the planet, which means there’s a good chance somebody is awake almost 24/7/365. One person's "late night hangout" could easily be another person's morning motivation!
And as we add more members from more time zones, we'll be able to keep that activity going around the clock!
So if you're excited to join us from outside the United States, we want to help you take the reins of a Coffee Chat, a campfire hangout, a skillshare, or something else that's friendly to YOUR timezone.
The Indy Hall team will offer guidance and support to making your local contribution to our calendar of member-hosted gatherings and events.
Send an email to team@indyhall.org with your question, and we'll get back to you ASAP!
There's no such thing as a dumb question, anything goes. Promise. ✌️
