Tuesday night at 7pm is the Raspberry Pi meeting (every first Tuesday of the month). Wednesday at 7pm is our weekly public meeting (as always). Finally, Saturday from 1-4pm we're hosting the annual holiday workshops. These have been fun in the past and we moved it to Saturday afternoon to be a more kid and family friendly time. That's $5 for nonmembers and we'll have soap molding (including the always popular making of molds) and other projects. Thanks and have a great week, Steve -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Stop by and see what we've been up to lately. Lots has been going on. We will be preparing for Saturday's St. Nick's Workshop and there will likely be a run to Michael's to get supplies. Also, I will be at the space at 6:30pm for members to stop by and talk about any Bloominglabs' business. Lots of stuff going on with Makevention, the RFI and visit to the fire house, and Bloominglabs becoming a non-profit. Hope to see everyone tonight!

The City Of Bloomington is pretty with it on the Tech front so they might be receptive to this. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Willow Brugh Date: Mon, Dec 10, 2012 at 8:04 PM Subject: [School Factory] National Day of Civic Hacking To: "Steve at bloominglabs.org" ((( Reply ABOVE this LINE to POST a COMMENT ))) Greetings SteveBloominglabs, There's a thing I'm helping with called Day of Civic Hacking. The idea is that cities participate in linking government folk and data to local citizens. Over the first weekend of June, folk might get together to explore challenges their location faces, to start to develop (software or otherwise) ways of addressing those challenges, or to just get to know about each other and processes together. Yes, I know the term "hacking" is a loaded one, especially in this context, but I really do feel this is some governmental groups doing civic engagement "less wrong", and want to help them in this process. I wonder if any of you fine folk would care to have your space participate. What I imagine is a sort of show-and-tell and unconference day, perhaps with some work being done, or at least a better understanding of the community being reached. We're working with groups like open.NASA, open.FEMA, the census bureau, and local universities to hold their hands while they open up more data and learn to engage with the public. The goal is to hold at least one in each state, specific to the needs and vibe of the group organizing and their location. The only role we would play is a reference point to find each event, and whatever other help you would like. Let us know if you'd like to play via http://hackforchange.org [1]. The event is taking place in conjunction with Random Hacks of Kindess, and is also partnered with Code For America's Brigade meetings, so there are plenty of ways to engage. You can also do whatever sort of event you like. Let me know if you have any questions!
