We're putting on Webmaker Training Days for Mozilla Reps from March 1 - 6 in Athens. The application for this event is now live!
This event will empower Reps like you to **grow webmaking communities in your neighborhood**. It will help you mentor other makers and educators so that they can run their own webmaking events. You'll be part of the design process for Webmaker in 2013 -- what we should do, what we should build, and how it all fits together.
Hope you can join us in Athens,
// Laura, Michelle, William + Pierros
