FAQs
What ages can attend?
Ages 12 and up. DON'T WORRY! We'll be having more events in the future so if you're too young for this event, stay tuned!
Do I have to be a student to attend?
Nope. Anyone age 12 or above can come. (It will be better/more fun if you come as a group, with some parents / teachers)
Can we sign up as a school / organization?
Yes, in fact we encourage you to - We've made the signups so that you can sign up 10 students at a time, so you (or your teacher/group leader) can sign up multiple students. PLEASE BE COURTEOUS - we have limited space, so please do not sign up more students than have actually committed to come. Also please limit the # of students from your organization, so that everybody can have a chance to come.
What are my transport/parking options getting to the event?
We will very likely have a shuttle service from the UTA Trax Lehi Station (front runner) stop at Thanksgiving Point. There's plenty of parking at the Adobe building as well. If you're worried about travel, please contact us and we'll do what we can to get you to the building.
Should I bring anything to the event?
If you're participating in any of the LEARNing activities, and you have mobile devices (iPhone, iPad, Android, etc.) or laptops, please bring them! We'll get you set up with some awesome programs, and you'll get to take them home with you.
Is my registration/ticket transferrable?
Yes, but please let the person who will be using your ticket know that we need everyone who registers to show up. If you can't make it, please let us know / cancel your ticket!
Can I update my registration information?
Yes, definitely.
Do you need volunteers?
Yes! The more the merrier! If you have any expertise that you'd like to share (robotics, programming, graphic design, etc.) we need you! All volunteer hours are tax deductible and we will have lunch and other "thank you"s for you if you come. Please contact us directly if you have something special in mind!
Do you need sponsors?
Yes! Putting on an event like this costs quite a bit, and we need your help to make it successful. There are lots of ways you can contribute (transportation, food, prizes/swag, printing, media, news coverage) and they are all welcome. The event benefits Kidnected World ( http://kidnectedworld.org/ ), who will be building a Maker Space in downtown SLC in the near future. Please contact us directly with any questions / details.
