I’ve been to a couple of these, and they’ve been a blast.  You meet all sorts of Makers with a wide variety of hobbies, and can network, or simply get some questions answered while you are there.  They are definitely worth taking time to go to.

Whew!  I played laser tag with some friends last night, and that was quite a workout.  My legs and lungs were hurting by the end of it, but we had a great time.

If only lasertag weren’t so expensive, and I could find a place and a group to play with on a regular basis, this might be a great workout program.
