=== What is Camp? ===
Let's put a whole heap of computer nerds in one place for a weekend and see what happens! Internet is limited but will be available, however food, accomodation, and great company is guaranteed! Be prepared for a weekend-long LAN, programming competitions, tech talks and even a campfire! Bring your favourite ethernet cables, soldering iron and spare GTX1080s and be prepared to have fun. Besides that, it's just a great opportunity to meet some like-minded people and network.
This is an 18+ event, remember to bring your ID.
Drink responsibly.
Don't drink and drive.
'''Consent forms can be found [[http://www.ucc.asn.au/~camp/consentform.pdf|here]]. Please fill them out and send them to camp@ucc.asn.au :)'''
