The Cowtown Computer Congress

We would like to show our appreciation to a few of our members and their outstanding contributions to the space and for their representation of the hacker-space movement.

Craig Berscheidt and Michael Curry are our Makers of the Year:

Craig Berscheidt’s has worked very hard this year to get the CCCKC CNC up and running. And he dedicated much of his time, equipment and know-how to the 3D Printer community within CCCKC.

Michael Curry has been an outstanding representative of our hacker space and the hacker space and 3D printer movements across the nation. His work has appeared several times in well known maker/hacker blogs/sites and his design for an automated talking version of Steven Colbert’s head closed the Colbert Show on Comedy Central.

Craig and Michael will receive a one month membership voucher.

The CCCKC Mission Award goes to Chris Wilkson who, at great personal cost, has been giving members of the space lessons in analog electronics and general advice on electrical projects whenever they require his help.

For his self-less contributions to the space and it’s members we will be providing Chris with a full year membership.

Awards were presented to these members at the 2011 KC Maker Faire at Union Station.
