At NCDevCon, we had sessions that were hands-on where the attendees could bring their laptop and get completely set up with their programming environment and tools. Plus, an expert gave a demo on how to get started and an overview. Usually, they were half day or full day sessions.
That could be another idea to try at the next Conj, but I don't know how many people were Clojure noobs like me. Either that or have a formal class associated with the Conj that would run just before it. I also like David's idea. NCDevCon had three charities that we sponsored using donations, collecting donations for the refreshments and proceeds for selling T-shirts. It is an extra, but was well received.
