Alright, everyone.  Thanks for coming out and making it an extremely successful con!!

We raised $610 for the Extra Life Charity!!

The donation will be made in the name of GeekHack Keycon 2017 and Belmont Business Systems, who were kind enough to print and donate our display cards and name tags free of charge.

I have an old ALPS glidepoint with White tactile ALPS switches that I never got a chance to clean up. (It would be a cool project board for somone, or a good place to harvest caps and switches)
Bought it a few years ago at a thrift store but I never had time to do anything but clean the caps in warm water.

And if I have my caps cast by the con, I can throw in one or two.

Tickets will probably have the pricing of $1/1 ticket, 6 tickets for $5, 15 tickets for $10, 30 tickets for $20.

Any remaining proceeds will be donated to the Extra Life charity


Why to charity instead of to GeekHack?  Just curious, expecially since the site seems to need the funds.

Ah, I didn't know the site was hurting for funds.  But yeah, I just figured a childrens' hospital charity is something everyone can feel good contributing to :)

Not complaining :)  Just wondered.  And yes... that's the reason we have the Deals tab, and the Tapatalk donations.
