FITES Joins LANFest Sponsored by Intel!
« on: November 30, 2011, 09:47:46 AM »

FITES is privileged and proud to now count itself part of LANFest!

LANFest Sponsored by Intel is a charity LAN group, that we feel, aligns with the values we hold here at FITES and will help us in giving back to the community. They have LAN parties all over the US with the sole intent of helping others and having a good time.

What does that mean for FITES? A whole new realm of opportunity in helping. For so long the staff of FITES, which is all volunteer, has worked their butts off to put on events and this past year have felt confident enough to incorporate as a charity to be able to give back. But now with LANFest at our side they can help us make not only our events grow and get better, but help in giving even more to charity.

What does this mean for you? The sponsors of LANFest LAN parties include Intel, MSI, Western Digital, GigaByte, Corsair, and a slew of others! Expect tons of great prizes for giveaway at our LAN as we have in the past. All participants have an equal chance of winning with our door prize style of giveaways.

If you haven't heard of them before please check them out. http://lanfest.intel.com

What if bodies just had random errors like computers do?
You go to receive your Starbucks coffee and accidentally punch the Barista in the face then Crap on the floor.
What kind of Fudgeing computer errors are you getting?

I'm such a proud Papa Geek! Our little LAN is all grown up! ;)
Please just walk away. I don't want to have to stand here and say something so awesome that I'll have to remember it the rest of the day. Thank you!

No, it means you need a weekend of babysitters and drive to Cold-'burg. LANFest has many LAN's all over the country. We are now the LANFest representative in the NorthEast. The one in Atlanta is a different LANFest LAN.

It's only a 12 hour drive from ATL :)
Please just walk away. I don't want to have to stand here and say something so awesome that I'll have to remember it the rest of the day. Thank you!
