Maker Faire New York Debrief

We made the trip to the Big Apple and wanted to say 'thanks' to all of you who came and saw us!

As you may have known, Maker Faire New York has come and gone and SparkFun was in attendance. It was awesome! We saw some amazing projects, met some great people, and just generally had a wonderful time.

One of our favorite things to do at Maker Faire is meet and talk with some of our customers. For an example, check out the above video. Ah yes, just another normal day at Maker Faire.


A pair of happy young soldering gurus!

We also ran soldering workshops! This year we gave away 540 kits in just two days and raised $4532.80 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation and Expanding Your Horizons! Kudos to all those people who took the soldering class and helped raise this money for two worthwhile organizations.

We hope those who made it out to Maker Faire had as much fun as we did! Thanks again to all our great customers for making this trip worthwhile. To see more photos check out the SparkFun Flickr page. Cheers!
