Yes. IMHO it's a great event. Note, it's no longer headquartered at Bloomington North High School. This year will be their third year at the new location, Emmetsville, which is about 5 miles west of Bloomington. The school campus there is much larger than Bloomington, with multiple gyms for indoor sleeping, plenty of parking, and onsite camping. (Camping used to be at a nearby park when they were HQd in Bloomington.)
