The party kicks off with a global "Weekend of Code" June 23 & 24.
Then continues with local events and teach-ins all summer long.
Wrapping up with a big "show and tell" finale in September.

2) Ongoing Summer Events

The making and learning continue all summer long.

-Keep learning all summer by hosting and attending more events - maybe with the same set of folks, or maybe new groups! Or just continue to make stuff yourself. We will provide lots of content for you to use to 'level up' or hone multiple skills. Plus, there will be lots of content and options from partners as well. Plenty to keep you and other learners busy all summer long!
-=== End of Summer Show-N-Tells ===
-Every good party has a grand finale. We want to showcase all of the learning and making that occurred over the summer so we'll help drive a bunch of show-n-tells - local and virtual - for you to share your work, meet other webmakers, earn badges and celebrate an awesome summer together.
