i'll make sure one of us takes in this event next year on behalf of Game Night. :-) i've heard about that linkedin feature for recruiting volunteers, sounds like a great resource. ...lori On Dec 5, 2017 08:52, "Lan Dang" <ldangmlist(a)gmail.com> wrote: It was a pretty big event with lots of exhibits and lots of attendees. I think the target audience was mostly kids and their parents. Jess made me a flyer with the promo code, which I posted all over our booth. But I think the value would've been more in recruiting volunteers, activities for game night, or the Next Generation. Here's a quick Instagram video posted by the library. https://www.instagram.com/p/BcOFXg0laVd/?hl=en&taken-by=lapubliclibrary This is interesting.

Introduction
by Nicole Gossett 06 Dec '17

06 Dec '17

Hello, My name is Nicole and I would like to cover a brief introduction of myself for SCaLE's volunteer team. I am originally from CT, I study computer science, I like video games, art, and technology and my dream is to get a computer engineering degree. I have recently moved over to the linux operating system, and I'm interested in learning more about system administration in linux, security, and kernel development. I have helped volunteer and organize hackathons and other events in the past involving a lot of different people. I'm really looking forward to helping the tech team and contributing my time to SCaLE, I think it will be a great experience. -Nicole

Hello Weve been offered ad space by a few tech focused magazines. Would anyone be up for helping us design an ad? I have the specs that I can put into a ticket, but wanted to see if we had anyone available first. Thanks Ilab

Summer App Space talk on Nov 9th
by Lan Dang 03 Nov '17

03 Nov '17

Hi, I thought this might be of interest to the OSSIE crowd and TNG if they're in the Pasadena area. (And hey, it would be a great talk for next year's SCALE too.) Dr. Christine Corbett Moran (Caltech), who was one of our SCALE keynote speakers last year, will be speaking at SGVLUG about a summer high school coding apprenticeship she ran called Summer App Space It resulted in an open source curriculum on Python and space science that anyone can use for self-study. Her textbook, slides, problem sets, and lecture videos are available, as well as videos of the presentations by her guest speakers. http://summerappspace.com/ It will be on Thursday, Nov 9th from 7pm to 9pm at OpenX Technologies in Pasadena. https://www.meetup.com/SGVTech/events/244163293/ Lan

Promoting SCALE 16x
by Lan Dang 04 Oct '17

04 Oct '17

Hi all, This is about the time of year when I start promoting SCALE and encourage folks to submit to the CFP and volunteer. Are there any new topics or special volunteer needs or events to highlight for SCALE 16x? Next Thursday, I'm going to try to get on the schedule of our internal developer meetup at work. I'm always trying to get my colleagues to participate and attend. We also have our SGVLUG meeting next Thursday; since the topic is Rust, we may pull in folks from outside our normal membership. Pasadena Connect Week is Oct 13-22, so that's a good time to network and promote SCALE, too. https://connectpasadena.com/ Lan

We will be starting at 10 am at Dave Flynn's workshop at: 11711 Clark Street Suite 108 Arcadia, CA 91006 If you want to get up a littler earlier, we'll (or at least me) will be meeting at Coco's Bakery Restaurant in Pasadena: 77 N Lake Ave Pasadena, CA 91101 And then be at the storage facility at 8:30 am to load up the cables and AP's: 171 S Arroyo Parkway Pasadena, CA 91105 After ward, we will be having lunch, place and time has yet to be decided. I'll probably be wearing one of the bright neon yellow Scale Noc tech shirts, so I should be easy to find. And here is my cell, just in case you need to get a hold of me: (562) 556-762 Thanks, Steve
