Best Event Registration Module?

Greetings everyone. Can someone who works on the great FLDRUPALCAMP site tell me the registration module used? Or otherwise advise me on event registration. We are a Florida nonprofit organization and collect donations via paypal. I need to set up registrations for our upcoming 3-day Summit in October in a manner very similar to the way the camp is done. Our website is sjr2c.org.

Thanks for any help you can offer. Missing the Brevard meetups... nothing much happening in Volusia County...

Looking for help at DrupalCon Baltimore

Hey everyone,

We're looking for an additional Drupaler to help us in the Beginner Class at DrupalCon Baltimore:
https://events.drupal.org/baltimore2017/training/absolute-beginners-guid...

We've done this training for about 8 years now, but ... good news! ... Baltimore is turning out to be far more popular than other years.

So we need an extra pair of hands on Monday, April 24. You won't need to teach or prepare anything. The role will be to circulate and help students with questions, plus bug-shooting their problems.
