What the heck is STEAK you&#8217;re possibly wondering? STEAK was started up back in 2006 as a Fall table gaming event run by the UWEC Gamer&#8217;s Guild and No Brand Con Table Gaming committee as a kind of bridge event between each No Brand Con that happens in the Spring. Since then, STEAK has expanded from a two-day table gaming event to a three-day gaming event that includes table gaming, a video game room, and viewing theater for anime! The best part of STEAK is that it&#8217;s completely free to attend!<\/p>\n<p>STEAK VI will be taking place in two and a half weeks during the weekend of October 7-9 in the UWEC Davies Center Skylight Lounge. The Skylight Lounge is located directly above the UWEC bookstore. There will be a handful of video game and table gaming tournaments run over the course of the weekend. We also do a food drive for the Eau Claire area Feed My People food bank. Anyone who brings in a non-perishable item will receive a free STEAK event button which we only give away during the weekend of STEAK! If you&#8217;d like more information about STEAK VI, feel free to check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/STEAK\/10150094233515158\">STEAK facebook page<\/a> or ask a question on our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nobrandcon.org\/forum\/viewforum.php?f=59\">STEAK forum<\/a>.
