BarCampMilwaukee3 will take place Saturday October 4th, 2008 and Sunday October 5th, 2008. The event will run non-stop from Saturday morning at 10AM until Sunday afternoon at 4PM.

Plans are in development for a Friday night social event to kick things off.

If you are interested in attending, you will need to REGISTER and CREATE A PROFILE. (It is a 2-step process.) This is a free event, thanks to our sponsors.

Hey, before you come, you should order a sheet of stickers, so you can show off your stickerness: get some

Notice: If you've registered and listed a shirt size in your profile by September 15st, you will receive a t-shirt. All registrants signing up after September 20th, 2008 cannot be guaranteed a specific sized t-shirt, as the t-shirts have gone to print. We may have extra t-shirts at the event for walkups, available on a first-come, first-served basis.
