STEAK is this upcoming weekend! For those of you who don’t know what STEAK is, it’s an annual gaming event the NoBrandCon staff run every year at UW-Eau Claire. This year’s STEAK will be happening on the second floor of the UWEC Davies Center in the Badger, Clearwater, and Wisconsin rooms in the Skylight Lounge area. The event starts at 10 AM both on Saturday the 20th, and Sunday the 21st and runs till 11PM each night. You can check out the event’s facebook page linked at the beginning for more info!

Secondly, we’ve confirmed this week with the Ramada Inn this week that the main convention hotel is completely booked up for NoBrandCon weekend. They are currently accepting names for a waiting list, but in case you can’t get a room, we’ve established two hotels again this year as overflow to accommodate those attendees who can’t get a room at the Ramada but still need a place to stay during the weekend.

They are:

Rodeway Inn & Suites
1828 S. Hastings Way
Eau Claire, WI 54701
(715) 835-3600

Heartland Inn
4075 Commonwealth Ave.
Eau Claire, WI 54701
(715) 839-7100

We’ve established special rates at both hotels for our attendees, so you’ll need to call the hotels directly in order to get those special convention rates. Just mention you’re attending NoBrandCon weekend from April 30th to May 2nd and you should be good to go.
