Thank you to Glenn, Sam and Jamison Scheeres for heading up the charge at the booth, GeorgeAnn and Keith and all the volunteers that volunteered their time as well. Thanks to Tom Tufts, Tansy and the Shmoo staff who helped tear down, sort, count and count everything before packing up. You all made the HFC presence and success at Shmoocon possible. I can’t thank you enough.
Thanks to Josh Marpet for the 50-cal shot glass, No Starch Press for the TWELVE different books (approx $350 value), Almost Human for the large 3-7 day survival bag ($700) and the compact survival kit, the challenge coins donated by various folks, the folks at BLACKPHONE for the Blackphone donation ($600 value), and everyone who donated and bid on auction items (including but not limited to the Checkpoint v1.0 Software;-)
I’d also like to send a special shout out to Bruce and Heidi Potter. They really put a lot of time, thought and energy into making this an AMAZINGLY successful conference for, and everyone else who was lucky enough to attend. In addition to the T-Shirt sales, this year they came up with the great idea to have a Blackhat screening for HFC and EFF, which raised $2,200 and $760 respectively through ticket sales (Also, thanks to Mubix for assisting with this awesome idea!). You guys really go above and beyond to help us out, and I appreciate your support and love. Thank you.
I’m sad to have missed Shmoocon this year. Not only is it an awesome conference, but I look forward to seeing my fellow Shmoo, who I hardly get to see. I miss you guys, but I’m thankful for all the love and support that carried us through this conference. Hope to see you guys at the next Shmoocon, and thanks again!
