While Gamefest is what it is, a gathering to promote non-electronic gaming as a hobby, we would like to point out that it is the primary fundraising event for a wonderful organization at Kearney High School. All funds from raffles, garage sale commissions and concessions go to fund the students who are manning the concession stand, all members in HOSA, so they can attend and compete at conventions on a state and national level. HOSA is a national student organization endorsed by the U.S. Department of Education and the Health Science Education Division of ACTE. HOSA's two-fold mission is to promote career opportunities in the health care industry and to enhance the delivery of quality health care to all people. HOSA's goal is to encourage all health occupations instructors and students to join and be actively involved in the HSE-HOSA Partnership. Both the students and the staff involved in HOSA at Kearney High are top-notch. The professional and leadership skills that these young people are developing in HOSA will provide the health occupation field some fine young talent in years to come.
The decision continues to be made to keep Gamefest a free admission event. But please remember it is a fundraiser for a great group of kids. Buy food there, tip the help, buy raffle tickets. For more info on HOSA click here http://www.hosa.org/whatis.html
Gamefest will be LOADED with prizes this year, from gift certificates to our FLGStores to games and swag from some of the top gaming companies out there!
