Hands-on activities in the Expo hall?
by Lan Dang 14 Feb '19

14 Feb '19

Hi all I was thinking that next year, instead of having a dedicated room for TNG Playground, that we can do it in a common area of the Expo hall instead. It would drive traffic to the Expo hall. We could have a mix of activities that are either kid-friendly or aimed at an older crowd. The STEM groups that helped out last year are interested in having community booths this year, so doing things in the Expo hall would be more convenient and may encourage more participation from other exhibitors. Since this will involve identifying a space that will have access to power and/or Internet, I'd like to know what to do to move this idea forward. Thoughts? Lan

DTLA Mini Maker Faire on Saturday, 10am to 4pm
by Lan Dang 29 Nov '18

29 Nov '18

Hi all, SGVHAK will be at the DTLA Mini Maker Faire on Saturday at the Los Angeles Central Library. It'd probably be a good place to promote SCALE and get ideas for that hands-on activity area we are planning for the exhibit hall. I have a lot of SCALE t-shirts still, so I plan on handing them out there, particularly the youth sizes. It might also be a good place to look for participants in The Next Generation track. There will be some high school groups there. In fact, Santa Susana High School students will be at the JPL Open Source Rover booth; they were one of the beta build groups in addition to our SGVHAK group. We helped exercise the documentation and show that we could build a rover in about 3 months, under budget. https://www.meetup.com/SGVTech/events/256788941/ Please come join us to check out the fair, and we wouldn't mind help promoting SCALE, as well, as we'll be quite busy running our booths.

moin moin, can we push the deadline back a day for SCaLE18x? Having the deadline on Halloween makes it difficult to finish last minute reviews and proposals for many of us. Hope everyone had a great Halloween :). ciao, der.hans -- # https://www.LuftHans.com https://www.PhxLinux.org # Strangers are friends just waiting to happen!
