Hi @kaxcode! Thank you for getting this started. I'm one of the core member of GoBridge and can assist you as needed. If you want to hop on a hangout and talk through some of the logistics of running a workshop, I'm happy to. We're in the same timezone too! I'm in Ellicott City, MD.

Hi @ardan-bkennedy. Yes, the event is still on. I just haven't picked a curriculum 😅.
