Sponsors
We are actively seeking additional sponsors to help cover amenities. All sponsors will be thanked during the kickoff and will have their logos printed on the sponsors banner assuming there is a sponsor banner to print. Sponsoring a BarCamp event is not about lead generation, it's more like a donation - you're supporting the effort by supporting the attendees.
Meal sponsors: Developers need to eat/drink. The better the meal, the better the code.
Awards sponsors: We are looking for more some awards sponsors. Awards should somehow tie into Silverlight development
Please contact silverlightdevcamp@gmail.com if you are interested in being a sponsor.
