Here are the dates I've signed up for. I've started to fill in some dates. If you would like to claim a date, just reply to this post and I will update the table.
As usual, I'm looking doing things a little differently. There are a number of active projects that need to continue (Fleetbot, swerve) and a few events to deal with (Girls Inc, Trivia Bee). We normally don't start until October but I'm pushing to start immediately so we get onto the kid's schedules right off the bat.
I'd like to see if there's a way we can do more with software topics. It seems to be an area where students have an interest but many are very weak and need a lot of help.
