Similar to last year, I’ve volunteered the Azavea office space for a Code for America hackathon at the end of February. This will coincide with a coordinated national event, a series of CityCamp hackathons that will also be known as Code Across America, on Saturday, Feb 25. Coffee and bagels will be served at 9am, festivities will begin around 9:30am and we will be working hard on civic apps all day.  This will be part of a national week of civic innovation.  We’ll build apps, liberate data, and develop the skills we need to create an ecosystem for civic engagement.

We hope you’ll join us.  You can sign up for the Philadelphia event at: http://codeforamerica.ticketleap.com/codeacrossamerica2012/
