Overview

A Maker Fair \ Con in Huntsville. Not an original idea, just trying to get some brainstorming materials written down. We may be a ways away from this, or maybe we're ready for it now. Dunno.

Things to Fill an Hour

1. Lunch Break
2. Rocketbikes (local huntsville organization)
3. Halo5 (the DIY rocket club in huntsville)
4. Hackerspaces formation panel\talk
5. (Hackerspace) Projects Presentation
6. (Hackerspace) Projects Presentation
7. (Hackerspace) Presents Presentation
8. Maker Faire (Off-Stage. All projects on display to get up close and personal with)
9. Contest Prize Giveaway, Awards, Closing Ceremonies

There's got to be enough material for at least a one day con\faire like outerz0ne seems doable. Maybe need to take the focus off of the Huntsville area show-and-tell and try to bring in farter away maker groups, like HackDC.
