Gizmos & Gadgets Summer Camp

Hi everyone

Hope you are enjoying your break and ready for the summer holidays!

As you know IT Sligo have supported CoderDojo Sligo for four years now allowing us to have use of their computer labs for the benefit of ninjas! We know many of you miss CoderDojo during the summer months and thought you would be interested to hear about the excellent Gizmos & Gadgets camp being run in IT Sligo this July.

2014 Return Date – An Update

Mentors and the #DojoCon2014 team have been extremely busy this summer with preparations for the CoderDojo conference, DojoCon which has meant a delay in our return date.

Over the summer there has been an enormous increase in interest in attending CoderDojo Sligo and we have to recruit new mentors to cope with the increased demand as much as possible.   This will mean that sessions absolutely must be booked in advance via Eventbrite from our return on.  As ever booking your space is free and you will not need to print the ticket.

** Interest has increased to a level that we may not be in a position to have space for everyone so please don’t be disappointed if you can’t book a space.  If at first you don’t succeed ….

Do you know of anyone with a technical ability that would like to mentor at CoderDojo Sligo?  If you do we’d really like to hear from them and they can email us on sligodojo[at]gmail[dot]com where we can give them more information.

Current mentors have held meetings to plan out sessions and we hope to be in a position to provide details of a return date very shortly.

We’ll issue notification through both Facebook and Twitter of our return date and also links to the Eventbrite tickets as soon as they are available.  Please remember that tickets are limited each week relative to the number of mentors available for the session.

Thank You to all the volunteer mentors that have been with us this past few years, without their help CoderDojo Sligo would not be able to run.  We’d also like to especially thank those mentors that have been with us up until this year and wish them well in their future endeavours.

Stay tuned to Facebook & Twitter for further updates,
