Be sure to take time to celebrate accomplishments at the end of the event. This gives participants a better feeling than when the event just ends without any summary. If possible, have people "demo" what they have done, even if it is just showing a new article page. | Be sure to take time to celebrate accomplishments at the end of the event.

Share the event accomplishments via a blog post, to celebrate publicly in addition to the demo at the end of the event. | |||
Finally, also thank participants individually, via email, with a personal note about what they contributed. This both helps them feel appreciated, and encourages them to continue with what they started during the event. | Finally, also thank participants individually, via email, with a personal note about what they contributed.
