The last event this semester will be the Burning LAN for Child's Play.
For those who don't know what Child's Play is, they were founded by the crew over at Penny Arcade. The charity goal is to get toys, books and games for children's hospitals all around the world including the UNM Children's Hospital up in Albuquerque.
If you don't already know we had an event last semester that raised $800 for their charity. This semester we hope to raise much more than that.
The event will be on Saturday December 1 starting at noon and going all the way to Sunday at noon. The event will take place in the SAC Auditorium.
We do ask that people who are %100 committed to attending please contact one of the club officers so that we may have a better understanding of how many will be there so we can plan accordingly.
We will start accepting donations this week and will be taking all donations up until the end of the event.
We are still looking for sponsors and other people to help out or donate items to raffle off.
I will update this post as soon as more information becomes available.
Edit: The SA has granted our request for funds to get items for raffle. We will be raffling off a 26" Flat Screen TV as our main raffle for $5 a ticket. We also have a little extra money so we will be having a secondary raffle for small prizes at the event for those who show up. $2 a ticket for that raffle.
We hope for the support of everyone and we hope to see everyone there!
