How to Make and Run a Computing Summer Camp - Logistics (Room 1212 Klaus Advanced Computing Building, from 2009-11-11 09:00 to 2009-11-11 15:00) — by Barbara Ericson

Georgia Tech is providing a workshop on how to make and run a computing summer camp on Wed Nov 11th from 9am - 3pm. We will discuss how to apply for "seed money" of up to $4,999.99 to buy equipment for the camps. We will also discuss the forms, business model, and planning needed in order to run computing summer camps. We will hear reports from the camps that have been funded.
