\"Macstock<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s WWDC<\/a> is set for June 8 (check back to the Rocket Yard soon for a preview of the event!), but there\u2019s another big day next month that will give Apple fans a chance to get together to discuss and learn more about their favorite tech.<\/p>\n

On June 20, you can join fellow Mac fanatics for the Macstock Conference & Expo 2015<\/a> at McHenry County College just outside of OWC Headquarters\u2019 location in Woodstock, Ill. Macstock is a one-day only event all about the community and information surrounding Apple and its products. Fans from all over the world will gather to talk tech and listen to a wide range of speakers<\/a> who will discuss both hardware and software.<\/p>\n

Event registration starts at 8 a.m. CT, with talks beginning at 9 a.m.\u00a0Lunch is included, and afternoon sessions continue until 3 p.m., after which attendees are invited to a separate special event \u2013 the Midwest MacBBQ 2015<\/a>. Early bird tickets for Macstock are available for $69 until May 31 and will be $79 thereafter.<\/p>\n

OWC is a proud Macstock sponsor<\/strong>
\nOWC is proud to be a breakout room sponsor of the first Macstock Conference & Expo. Team OWC will be on hand at the event and will hold a raffle to give away an award-winning OWC Thunderbolt 2 Dock<\/a> to one lucky winner! And attendees can sign up for the raffle of an iPad in the OWC Breakout Room<\/strong> until 2 p.m., with the winner announced at that time. The winner will be able to take the prize home that day!<\/p>\n

More on OWC Radio<\/strong>
\nCheck out an interview with Macstock organizer and host of the For Mac Eyes Only<\/a> podcast Mike Potter on OWC Radio<\/a> for more about the event.<\/p>\n

We hope to see you there!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
