Join up to 50 like-minded hackers for a two-day conference and retreat at Camp Dewan outside Burlington, WI. Think boy/girl scout camp meets hacker con. This is a relaxed, informal get-together, all the content will be whatever attendees bring with them.
Dates, location and registration information Check in time: 4:00 pm on Friday May 31 Check out time: 10:00 am on Sunday June 2 Location: Camp Dewan, 6360 Church Rd, Burlington, WI 53105 (https://www.campdewan.com/) Cost: $165 per person which covers the camp rental fee and meals.
Talks The conference will have a board where you can sign up to present or host a discussion on a topic of your choice. Feel free to talk about infosec, electronics, ham radio, locksport, making, gaming, Bushcraft or anything else you think would be of interest to attendees. Well also have sign ups if you want to organize stuff like a volleyball game, a board game or whatever.
Play time A lot of the conference time will be unstructured. Consider bringing a project you've been hoping to find time to work on, or that maybe you'd like input from others. We'll likely try to organize some informal villages if attendees want to pool some ideas and gather resources prior to the conference. Also take advantage of the facility, go for a hike, fish, kayak, etc.
Stuff for your food hole The conference center has a kitchen and dining room. Your registration fee covers meals but please bring your own beverages and snacks. Adult beverages are allowed. We'll have a sign-up sheet for volunteers willing to help prepare or clean up for meals. Expect simple meals (subs, spaghetti, etc.), and contact the organizer to coordinate specific dietary requests.
Lodging Feel free to bring a tent and camp on the grounds or set up a sleeping bag somewhere in the conference center building.

Bring repellent or stay inside. - You are in the woods. Wi-Fi may or may not be available, and cellular signals may be sketchy. Try to download and bring what you might need ahead of time.
Code of Conduct Dont be a jerk. Ages 18+ only. Also wed like to make this an annual event so please please please respect the conference facility and leave no trace so that we are invited back.
Why "Skunks Misery" This area along Sugar Creek in Walworth county was called Skunks Misery by early settlers.
