Family Night FAQ

Can I as an Adult, order a Kid’s Kit?

SURE!

You absolutely can, and most adults do.  Please keep in mind that tee shirts for Family Night are for kids 16 and younger only this year.

Can I just drop off my child at Family Night?

NO!

We understand that older children can usually manage themselves well, but for liability purposes, SAINTCON does not have appropriate staff to properly care for unaccompanied children.

All children MUST be accompanied and supervised by an adult!

I don’t have any kids, can I come alone?

Yes, but we prefer you don’t…

The focus of this event is for kids to have the “Hacking Experience” and having extra adults around can lead to some feeling that the environment is less-safe for kids.

Better to find a niece/nephew or someone to bring IMO.

Do they have to be “My Kids”?

NO!

This event is for all kids who might be interested in what we do at SAINTCON.  As long as they are pre-registered, you may include children from outside your direct family-unit, but should be of some relation to you (niece, nephew, cousin, etc.)

Can I bring a youth-group instead of my kids?

Please don’t…

The mission of this event is to focus on Attendees, and their families or extended family. 

We are not interested in expanding that scope at this time.

Future plans include a large summer-time event which will be a better forum for youth-groups, clubs, etc.

Who are the SAINTCON Widows?

The SAINTCON Widows are a group of women which initially formed out of a desire to be involved, instead of being a “widow” because their spouse is planning, or attending SAINTCON.

The Widows have since evolved into a group of incredible women with several areas of focus, including the planning and execution of the SAINTCON Family Night event.
