->> WHAT: GEEKFEST 2010 PHOTO CONFERENCE
WHEN: SEPTEMBER 24th-26th 2010
WHERE: (lovely) ST. PETE, FLORIDA

If you want to see/hear/interact with a pretty diverse group of industry movers and shakers as well as have a relaxed weekend with lots of amazing people this is the conference for you. The price/awesomeness ratio is off the charts, trust me. I'm definitely going. I know some fellow SportsShooters are already registered and are going, so chime in here if you are! If you have any questions feel free to ask!

Taken from the above link:

"It’s going to be a pretty intense couple of days — with amazing speaker after amazing speaker, a shootout, shuffleboard and a print auction Saturday night, shootout and more. We’re hoping this all leads to one big dose of inspiration. After the speakers wrap up each night, they are encouraged to stick around and do portfolio reviews, as well as just to hang out, have a beer with, shoot the shit with, etc…

The price of admission for the 3-day conference goes to cover the plethora of talent, which we fly them in, put them up, etc… and to cover that cost — all this can be yours for the low, low price of $100. The $100 does not include hotel/meals/travel. We have a block of rooms booked at a local hotels. Room’s are roughly $100 a night. Get 4 people in a room, that’s only $25/night."

Definitely register as soon as you can. See ya out there!
