Thanks for a Successful 2nd Annual Faire!

Thanks to everyone who participated in the Maker Faire. It was a great day. We appreciated all the exhibitors and the time and effort they put into their demonstrations. We could not have had the faire without our sponsors Go Daddy, Rockwell Collins, NECA and IBEW.
Thanks to all that attended too. We look forward to future events!
