What:
The BSidesKC Hak4Kidz Village will be a dedicated space for kids to participate in activities and discussions.
Who:
Any child or student 8-14 years of age.
Cost:
Free! All children will get free admission on Saturday with a registered adult.
How:
Kids do not need to register or purchase a ticket! Instead, just send an email to info@bsideskc.org from an adult who is registered for the conference. No child name(s) are needed, but rather just a count. For example, I will have one child attending the conference with me. This will help us ensure we have plenty of volunteers for the village!
