Save the Date! CodeAcross hackathon Feb 21-23, 2014

[Michelle Koeth]

Hi Everyone,

Hope you all had an enjoyable Thanksgiving!

Before you know it, February will be upon us, and that means.. International Open Data Day! This year, Code for America Brigades will be participating in International Open Data Day via our CodeAcross event, to be held on February 21-23, 2014. Be sure to save the date!

We are just beginning the planning stages for CodeAcross NoVA. Want to get involved in planning this event? Check out this planning doc I've started: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r1V9nfczLOfWZTIT56rIdtXZpRZ4DaSg7522-wyhu0I/edit?usp=sharing

In the coming weeks, we'll be developing out this plan and finding a venue, making a schedule etc. If you'd like to be on the planning committee, send me an email and I'll give you edit access to the planning doc. As time is tight for all of us right now, I'm going to try to keep this planning light-touch and easily accessible - working from just this main planning doc for now.

Cheers and looking forward!

-Michelle

Hi Everyone again!

Happy New Year!!

Wanted to ping everyone to remember to save the date for Code Across - to be held February 22 and 23. We are closing in on a venue soon and there will be some more announcements made to that end.

In the meantime, here is a link to the official Code for America website about the event: http://www.codeforamerica.org/codeacross-2014/

If you are interested in helping volunteer at the event, or be a part of the event planning committee, please contact me - we will be having a planning meeting very soon.

Cheers
Michelle
