Recruiting Volunteers for National Day of Civic Hacking

[Nina Baliga]

Hey Code for NoVA folks,

We're getting ready for the National Day of Civic Hacking (NDoCH), which will take place on June 6th.  

There's a lot of work ahead of us, so we're recruiting volunteers to take on leadership roles leading up to it.  The time commitment is about 2-4 hours a week, with some weeks with more, and some weeks with less/none.   We'll meet on a weekly basis during our usual weekly meetup on Thursdays.  But, it's not required that you come to every meeting.  We're just looking for people who want to get more involved in the organization of our hackathon, or just want to be a part of making it a huge success!  

Below are some of the job descriptions that we're looking to fill.

Let me know if you're interested!

Thanks!
