We'd like to say a huge thanks to our event organizer, Chuck Butler! Chuck has been running events here in North Carolina for years and is the reason this event can happen. We would also like to thank the UNC Charlotte Student Involvement office, who have helped us set-up this event as well.
Some important rules:
We have been asked to not solder inside of the venue. Instead, a soldering station will be set up directly outside, with a few soldering irons and solder provided.
