JuniorCamp

what the rest of the group thinks. By no means does this mean we have
to try "JuniorCamp", but it could be a lot of fun too.
This is the barcamp site for southwest florida:
http://www.barcampswfl.com/category/juniorcamp/
JuniorCamp SWFL, will be the first-ever technology un-conference by
and for K-12 students. So far, students from six schools – including
Dunbar High School, Cypress Lake High School, Cypress Middle, Veterans
Park K-8 Academy for the Arts, Gulf Middle, and Diplomat Elementary –
have committed to sharing their technology expertise with each other.
Presentations will cover a variety of topics from computer hardware to
creating digital art using Photoshop to blogging and the making of
digital book trailers. Deb Hanson, library media specialist at
Veterans Park Academy for the Arts in Lehigh Acres is coordinating the
JuniorCamp and is thrilled with the response so far.
“This is a great opportunity for our students to show how
technology is changing the way they are learning and gives them a
chance to share their expertise with each other.”
The main Question is Do we want a bunch of little kids running around
barcamp?
I dont know.

The JuniorCamp SWFL venue appears to be at a High School. I think that is a more appropriate venue for such an event, in regards to the supervision of K-12 children and young adults.
That being said, I think it would be great if Orlando could have its own JuniorCamp.

This is a cool idea, but not for barcamp the more I think about it.
Or at lest not one that is taking place at a real bar.
Also if we where to have younger people there, it might be a good idea
to have a age limit or have mom or dad with
But setting one up on a different day would be cool and be willing to
help
