NEW Beer n’ Gear Engagement Activity

Join the quest to collect artifact fragments during Beer n’ Gear. Community Engagement Committee members will hand out quest cards as you enter the Pacific Concourse. Visit the Beer n’ Gear sponsor booths, collect all artifacts, then turn in your card at the Beer n’ Gear help desk for a small prize. Want to be entered into a drawing for a gift card? Add your name / number to the card and drop it in the fish bowl so we can contact you if your card is drawn. 


Thank you for being a part of NANOG 96. We are looking forward to a fantastic week!
