Geek Prom 2010 Event Coordination

We'll be throwing Geek Prom again after such a great showing last year. For those that missed, we had our first Geek Prom on June 13, 2009 and were able to get press coverage, show off our members projects to the larger public (of which we should have many more this year!), and raise funds for growing our space. If you're interested in joining the planning of this years, please volunteer below.
